What the differences mean
Sensors
Both measure radon, temperature and humidity. The Airthings View Plus adds PM2.5, CO2, TVOC and air pressure, so it also tracks smoke, stuffiness and fumes. The Airthings 325 Corentium Home 2 is a radon monitor and nothing more.
Wi-Fi
The Airthings View Plus is on Wi-Fi and can push alerts anywhere. The Airthings 325 Corentium Home 2 is Bluetooth only, read in the app when you are close by.
Size and power
The Airthings 325 Corentium Home 2 is a compact 113 x 61 x 29 mm unit on two AA batteries rated for 3 years. The Airthings View Plus weighs 360 g and uses six AA batteries for about 2 years, or USB-C power.

What owners say
Owners of both Airthings monitors say the continuous radon data is the point, revealing swings with weather and season and confirming that mitigation works. Airthings 325 Corentium Home 2 owners single out simplicity: effortless pairing, a well-built unit, Good/Fair/Poor readouts and readings that line up with test kits, and their recurring wish is Wi-Fi, along with a couple of units that disagreed with a second meter. Airthings View Plus owners are struck by everything else it shows, CO2 climbing overnight and cooking spiking particulates, and like the Wi-Fi dashboard and fast replacements from support, while they complain about CO2 drifting high without fresh air, fixed alert thresholds and an unlit screen.
