X-Sense Wi-Fi Carbon Monoxide Alarm vs X-Sense WiFi Smoke & CO Detector

Full Smart Smoke & CO Detectors comparison in 2026

Updated October 2026
Data from Amazon and official X-Sense site.
2026 verdict
CO-only or smoke and CO in one unit? The X-Sense WiFi Smoke & CO Detector wins because it adds smoke detection and fire alerts to the carbon monoxide sensing both share.
Everything else is close to identical: an LCD with readings, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi with phone alerts, Home Assistant support and no Google Home, Alexa or Apple Home, a CR123A cell rated for 1 year and a 5 year warranty. The X-Sense Wi-Fi Carbon Monoxide Alarm is the slimmer device, 24 mm thick and able to stand on a shelf or counter, which suits a spot beside a boiler or stove where a ceiling alarm does not belong. Pick the X-Sense WiFi Smoke & CO Detector when one ceiling unit has to cover both hazards, and the X-Sense Wi-Fi Carbon Monoxide Alarm to add CO coverage next to smoke alarms you already have.

What the differences mean

Smoke detection

The X-Sense WiFi Smoke & CO Detector detects smoke and sends fire alerts as well as CO. The X-Sense Wi-Fi Carbon Monoxide Alarm senses carbon monoxide only and does not replace a smoke alarm.

Shape and placement

The X-Sense Wi-Fi Carbon Monoxide Alarm is a slim 135 x 63 x 24 mm unit that can stand freely near a boiler or stove. The Smoke & CO Detector is a 144 mm round ceiling alarm, since smoke detection needs to sit high.

Battery

Both run on a CR123A cell rated for about 1 year, so battery upkeep is the same on either.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Owners of both X-Sense alarms praise setup over Wi-Fi in a few minutes, a loud siren and an LCD that shows the actual reading rather than a simple status light. X-Sense Wi-Fi Carbon Monoxide Alarm owners, many with gas boilers or wood stoves, single out phone alerts while they are away, a freestanding design that needs no wall mounting and a replaceable battery; their small complaints are an app and instructions not translated for every market and push alerts that lag slightly behind the screen. X-Sense WiFi Smoke & CO Detector owners value covering smoke and CO from one ceiling spot and fast warranty replacements when a unit failed, and they note that it is bigger than a regular smoke alarm, that its bracket is tricky to level and that there is no automatic self-test.

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.
