What the differences mean

Platforms

The Philips Hue Motion Sensor works with Apple Home, Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings and Home Assistant, with Matter through the Hue Bridge. The Eufy Motion Sensor works in the eufy Security app and with Home Assistant, and with none of the voice assistants.

Hub

The Philips Hue Motion Sensor is Zigbee and pairs with a Hue Bridge or another Zigbee hub. The Eufy Motion Sensor connects through a eufy HomeBase, so it only makes sense if you have one or plan to.

Light and temperature

The Philips Hue Motion Sensor measures light and temperature, which makes dark-only lighting and climate rules possible. The Eufy Motion Sensor senses motion only.

Range

Both see 100 degrees. The Eufy Motion Sensor is rated to 9 m and the Philips Hue Motion Sensor to 7 m, which matters in a long hallway more than in a normal room.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Owners of both sensors describe easy setup, dependable detection and batteries that last, and both groups mention the base unit the sensor cannot work without. Eufy Motion Sensor owners use it for security alerts and clever extras such as a mailbox alert or starting a camera recording, and they complain that it only works with a HomeBase, has no siren of its own, reaches less far than the box claims and has no Alexa or Google Home support. Philips Hue Motion Sensor owners use it to make lights automatic, praising schedules, zones, dark-only triggering and a timer that restarts on new motion, and they complain about needing a Hue Bridge, a daylight setting that needs re-tweaking and no quick way to switch the sensor off.

Price history compared

Every price change of both, in the same store, so the gap between the two lines is what one costs more than the other.
