Full Smart Plugs comparison in 2026

Updated June 2026
Data from Amazon and official Aqara and Fibaro sites.
2026 verdict
The Aqara Smart Plug (US) wins this smart plug pairing overall, driven by its lower price, a much wider integration list (HomeKit, Alexa, Google Home, Home Assistant, IFTTT and Matter via hub) and its Zigbee router role. The Fibaro Wall Plug (EU) has clear counters: a higher owner rating, a stronger 2500W maximum load, and richer connectivity, since it has both 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth built in so it needs no hub, though it only integrates with Apple HomeKit and Alexa. The two also differ by region, Aqara Type B for North America, Fibaro Type F for Europe, and both provide energy monitoring and overheat/overload protection. Choose the Aqara Smart Plug (US) for the cheaper plug with the broadest ecosystem support and Zigbee mesh extension; choose the Fibaro Wall Plug (EU) for a compact, hub-free HomeKit or Alexa plug with a higher load ceiling.
