It pairs energy monitoring with Apple HomeKit support and Bluetooth setup that the Amazon plug does not offer. Both connect directly over Wi-Fi, so neither needs a separate smart home hub to get online. The Amazon Smart Plug answers back with a lower price and a slightly higher owner rating, along with the simplest possible Alexa-only setup for anyone with no interest in HomeKit or energy tracking. The two also use different regional plug standards, Type B for the Amazon Smart Plug and Type F for the Fibaro Wall Plug (EU), so the right pick partly depends on which outlets you actually have. Choose the Fibaro Wall Plug (EU) for HomeKit support and energy monitoring on European sockets, and the Amazon Smart Plug for the cheapest, fastest way to add Alexa control on US-style outlets.

What the differences mean

Platform reach

The Fibaro Wall Plug (EU) works with Apple HomeKit alongside Alexa. The Amazon Smart Plug is Alexa only, with no Google Home, Apple Home, SmartThings or Matter path at all.

Energy monitoring

The Fibaro Wall Plug (EU) reports real-time power consumption for whatever is plugged in. The Amazon Smart Plug has no energy monitoring feature.

Connectivity

The Fibaro Wall Plug (EU) adds Bluetooth alongside Wi-Fi, useful for setup and local pairing. The Amazon Smart Plug connects over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi only.

Regional plug and voltage

The Amazon Smart Plug is a Type B plug built for US-style outlets. The Fibaro Wall Plug (EU) is a Type F plug for European sockets, so the choice is partly decided by which region you are wiring for.

Price and rating

The Amazon Smart Plug is the more affordable of the two and carries the higher average owner rating, the trade-off for doing less.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Amazon Smart Plug owners describe an Echo finding the plug within seconds of plugging it in, with schedules and routines that keep running reliably day after day and reconnect on their own after a power or Wi-Fi outage. Fibaro Wall Plug (EU) owners talk more about longevity, several say they have run multiple units for years without a failure, and they like being able to see real-time power consumption at a glance and pair cleanly with Apple HomeKit. The Fibaro's main complaint is its premium price next to generic plugs, while the Amazon plug's is that it does only one thing, Alexa control, and nothing else.
