It is a 16A Type F plug for 250V European sockets with overheat and overload protection, working with Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings and Home Assistant, and reaching Apple Home and Matter only through a SONOFF hub. The TP-Link Tapo P125M is Matter certified on its own, so it works with Apple Home and SmartThings without extra hardware, and it doubles the warranty to two years. It is a Type B plug for 100 to 125V North American outlets, rated for 1800W, with no energy monitoring. Pick the Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 for a European home with big loads to measure, and the TP-Link Tapo P125M for a North American home that values Matter.

What the differences mean

Socket and region

The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 is a Type F plug for 250V European outlets; the TP-Link Tapo P125M is a Type B plug for 100 to 125V North American outlets. They are not alternatives for the same wall.

Load and metering

The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 carries 4000W at 16A and reports consumption, enough to watch an oven, a dryer or a heat pump. The TP-Link Tapo P125M carries 1800W at 15A and measures nothing.

Matter and Apple Home

The TP-Link Tapo P125M is Matter certified, so Apple Home, SmartThings and Home Assistant see it directly. The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 is not Matter itself and reaches Apple Home only when a SONOFF hub republishes it.

Warranty

The TP-Link Tapo P125M is covered for two years, the Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 for one.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Owners of both plugs start with setup, which each group describes as a QR code scan and a few seconds of waiting. Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 owners then talk about load and data: it runs heavy appliances without complaint and returns daily, monthly and yearly consumption they trust, and Home Assistant users say it fits neatly into their automations. Their complaints are the eWeLink account the plug depends on, with one owner uneasy about the app's permissions, and pairing that a few found tedious. TP-Link Tapo P125M owners single out needing no vendor app at all, a plug that stays connected through short power cuts, a size that leaves the second socket free and a physical button, while warning that a Matter controller has to be in the house first.

Price history compared

Every price change of both, in the same store, so the gap between the two lines is what one costs more than the other.
