2026 verdict

Winner

€23.00€31.0026% OFF

The Shelly Plus 2PM wins this smart relay comparison as the more capable module, pairing a longer 3-year warranty (versus 1 year) with a complete four-way safety suite (overheating, overvoltage, overcurrent, overpower), per-channel energy monitoring, two 10A channels and an interlock/cover mode for roller shutters and garage doors. The Sonoff MINI Dry Wi-Fi Smart Switch fights back as the cheaper, better-rated unit with broader integrations, notably Matter, Apple HomeKit and IFTTT that the Plus 2PM lacks, plus a physical on/off button. But it is a single-channel relay rated at only 2A. Buy the Plus 2PM for dual-circuit control, shutter automation, metering and full protection; pick the Sonoff MINI Dry for a low-cost single-load trigger with wide ecosystem support.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is the better relay, the Shelly Plus 2PM or the Sonoff MINI Dry Wi-Fi Smart Switch?

The Shelly Plus 2PM wins overall with two channels, energy monitoring, cover mode, a four-way safety suite and a 3-year warranty. The Sonoff MINI Dry is the value option, cheaper and higher-rated with Matter, HomeKit and IFTTT, but it is a single-channel 2A relay.

What is the biggest difference between them?

Scale versus ecosystem. The Shelly Plus 2PM is a dual-channel relay with cover mode, metering and full safety protection, while the Sonoff MINI Dry is a single-channel 2A trigger that adds Matter, Apple HomeKit and IFTTT support the Shelly does not have.

Which one supports Matter and Apple HomeKit?

Only the Sonoff MINI Dry Wi-Fi Smart Switch. It works with Matter, Apple HomeKit and IFTTT on top of Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings and Home Assistant. The Shelly Plus 2PM runs over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth without Matter or HomeKit.

Who should buy the Shelly Plus 2PM?

Buy the Shelly Plus 2PM if you need to control two circuits or roller shutters, want per-channel energy monitoring and a full four-way safety suite, and value a longer warranty over the broadest ecosystem list.

Who should buy the Sonoff MINI Dry Wi-Fi Smart Switch?

Buy the Sonoff MINI Dry if you want the cheapest, best-reviewed single-load trigger with Matter, Apple HomeKit and IFTTT support and a physical button, for a gate or garage door within its 2A limit.
