Aqara Smart Plug (EU) vs GoveeLife Smart Plug Pro

The Aqara Smart Plug (EU) is the stronger overall choice. It adds energy monitoring, handles a higher load, integrates with more platforms, and works as a Zigbee router. The GoveeLife Smart Plug Pro is the cheaper, hub-free Wi-Fi option for basic control.

Energy monitoring and setup model. The Aqara includes energy monitoring and works as a Zigbee router but needs a Zigbee hub, while the Govee has no energy monitoring but connects directly over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with no hub required.

Yes. The GoveeLife Smart Plug Pro is the more affordable plug, ships with a longer 1.5-year warranty, and supports both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for a no-hub setup. It works with Alexa, Google Home, Home Assistant, IFTTT and Matter, though it lacks Apple HomeKit and energy monitoring.

Choose the Aqara Smart Plug (EU) if you want energy monitoring, a higher maximum load, Apple HomeKit support and Zigbee router functionality to extend your mesh, and you already run or plan to add a Zigbee hub.

Choose the GoveeLife Smart Plug Pro if you want an inexpensive, compact Wi-Fi plug with no hub required, a longer warranty, and simple, reliable control of lamps and small appliances via Alexa or Google Home.
