On a Type F wall it is rated at 4000 W, against 2300 W and 10 A for the Aqara Smart Plug (EU), and it joins Wi-Fi directly, with Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings and Home Assistant, plus Apple Home and Matter through a SONOFF hub. The Aqara Smart Plug (EU) meters energy too, and it is the one that repeats Zigbee, so other devices can hop through it. Matter and the voice apps need an Aqara hub. SmartThings can use Zigbee without that hub. Both are indoor Type F plugs with a button and overload protection. Choose the Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 for the heavier appliance. Choose the Aqara Smart Plug (EU) to strengthen a Zigbee mesh.

What the differences mean

Relay size

The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 is rated at 4000 W and 16 A. The Aqara Smart Plug (EU) is rated at 2300 W and 10 A, at 250 V. Both are Type F and both meter energy. A machine that needs the higher current has to go on the Sonoff plug. A lamp is inside either rating.

Wi-Fi or Zigbee

The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 uses 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, with Bluetooth only for pairing, and it is not a Zigbee router. The Aqara Smart Plug (EU) has no Wi-Fi. It needs a Zigbee hub and then repeats the mesh. If the house is already Zigbee, the Aqara plug extends it. If you want no coordinator, the Sonoff plug joins the router you already have.

Apple Home path

Apple Home and Matter on the Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 require a SONOFF hub. On the Aqara Smart Plug (EU) they require an Aqara hub. SmartThings is direct over Zigbee for Aqara, and direct through eWeLink for Sonoff. Home Assistant is supported on both. Neither difference removes the hub from the Apple Home path.

Body on a crowded strip

The Aqara Smart Plug (EU) measures 62 x 62 x 77.5 mm and weighs 86 g, and owners say it crowds the next socket. The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 measures 50 x 50 x 61.5 mm and weighs 79 g. Both are indoor only, with a physical button and no USB port. Warranty is one year on each.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Both groups trust the plug they leave in the wall, then notice different jobs. Aqara Smart Plug (EU) owners single out flawless day-to-day switching, energy figures they use, and the plug acting as a Zigbee router for sensors farther out, including under Home Assistant. They complain that the housing blocks the next socket. Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 owners single out washers, dryers and heaters, and energy history they describe as precise, with a QR setup that is usually quick. They complain about the eWeLink account and permission prompts, and a few call the first pair tedious.
