What the differences mean

Plug format and voltage

The Aqara Smart Plug (EU) is Type F and works at 250V. The Aqara Smart Plug (US) is Type B and works at 100 to 125V. This is the difference that decides the purchase, since each only fits its own region's sockets.

Maximum load

The Aqara Smart Plug (EU) is rated for 2300W and 10A, and the Aqara Smart Plug (US) for 1875W and 15A. The gap follows the voltage of each grid, and each is sized for what its wall socket can deliver.

Shape

The Aqara Smart Plug (US) is a compact 67 x 47 x 35 mm block and the Aqara Smart Plug (EU) a taller 62 x 62 x 77.5 mm one. Owners of both say the housing can crowd a neighboring socket, so check the space on your power strip.

SmartThings

SmartThings is listed as supported directly on the Aqara Smart Plug (EU), while the Aqara Smart Plug (US) needs an Aqara hub for it. Home Assistant works directly on both.

Colors

The Aqara Smart Plug (US) is listed in several colors and the Aqara Smart Plug (EU) is not, a small cosmetic point.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Owners of both Aqara plugs agree on the strengths: reliable switching, energy monitoring that is useful for seeing what an appliance costs to run and a plug that doubles as a Zigbee router for the rest of the mesh. Aqara Smart Plug (EU) owners describe flawless long-term switching and easy setup into Home Assistant or a hub, while their main complaint is a housing that blocks adjacent sockets on a power strip, and a couple mention that the status LED cannot be switched off. Aqara Smart Plug (US) owners single out fast wattage readings and Matter through an Aqara hub, and they complain that it cannot start an automation from its own power reading and that two will not fit side by side in a duplex outlet.
