Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 vs YoLink Smart Outdoor Energy Plug

Full Smart Plugs comparison in 2026

Updated October 2026
Data from Amazon and official Sonoff and YoLink sites.
2026 verdict
Torn between power and weatherproofing? The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 comes out ahead on this comparison's tally, with a far higher 4000W maximum load and no separate hub to buy.
The YoLink Smart Outdoor Energy Plug answers with the two things that actually decide an outdoor installation: an IP63 weather rating the Sonoff plug does not have, and the higher owner rating of the pair. Both plugs report real-time energy monitoring and reach Matter only through their own brand's hub. If the outlet lives outdoors, on a pump, a light or a seasonal display, the YoLink Smart Outdoor Energy Plug is the only one of the two rated for it, whatever the tally says; for a heavy indoor load with no hub to add, the Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 is the stronger buy.

What the differences mean

Weather resistance

The YoLink Smart Outdoor Energy Plug is IP63 rated for outdoor use. The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 carries no weather resistance rating and is meant for indoor sockets.

Maximum load

The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 is rated for 4000W and 16A, more than double the YoLink Smart Outdoor Energy Plug's 1800W and 15A.

Connection

The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 joins 2.4GHz Wi-Fi directly with no hub. The YoLink Smart Outdoor Energy Plug has none of those radios and relies entirely on the YoLink hub over long-range LoRa.

Samsung SmartThings

The Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 reaches Samsung SmartThings directly through the eWeLink cloud integration. The YoLink Smart Outdoor Energy Plug needs the separate YoLink Local Hub to reach the same platform.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Sonoff WiFi Smart Plug S60 owners across several countries describe fast eWeLink setup and trustworthy daily, monthly and yearly consumption figures, and several specifically bought multiples to track their home's biggest power draws. Their complaint is ecosystem breadth: Apple HomeKit and Matter only arrive through a separate SONOFF hub, and Zigbee is not on this model at all. YoLink Smart Outdoor Energy Plug owners keep coming back to how well it holds up outdoors season after season, powering pumps and lighting that a plain Wi-Fi plug would never survive, and they rate it higher than the Sonoff plug. Their trade-off is the same YoLink hub dependency, plus Apple HomeKit and SmartThings needing the further YoLink Local Hub on top.
