Shelly Plus 2PM vs Switchbot Relay Switch 1

Full Smart Relays comparison in 2026

Updated September 2026
Data from Amazon and official Shelly and SwitchBot sites.
2026 verdict
Need to control two circuits, or roller shutters?
Then the Shelly Plus 2PM is the smart relay to buy, beating the Switchbot Relay Switch 1 on relay channels (two against one), per-channel energy monitoring, a full set of overheating, overvoltage, overcurrent and overpower protections, a 3-year warranty and stronger owner feedback. Its interlock mode also makes it a natural fit for blinds, covers and gates. The Switchbot Relay Switch 1 is the cheaper module and the more connected one, working with Apple Home and Matter on top of Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings and Home Assistant, and it adds a wireless switch mode, power-off memory and a higher 16A resistive rating on its single channel. Both run on 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, support dry and wet contacts and DC loads, and need a neutral wire. For shutters or two lights on one box, pick the Shelly Plus 2PM; for a single Matter-ready circuit on a budget, the Switchbot Relay Switch 1 does the job.
