The SwitchBot Meter is the stronger all-rounder, thanks to a lower price, a built-in LCD screen, Bluetooth connectivity and SmartThings support. The Aqara Temperature and Humidity Sensor is the better fit for a Zigbee household, since it adds atmospheric-pressure sensing and a longer rated battery life, but it needs a Zigbee hub and has no display.
The SwitchBot Meter is a Bluetooth device with an on-device LCD, while the Aqara Temperature and Humidity Sensor is a screenless Zigbee puck. That means the Meter shows readings at a glance and the Aqara relies on a hub and app, though the Aqara adds an atmospheric-pressure reading the Meter lacks.
The SwitchBot Meter has a 2.1-inch LCD for glanceable readings but is rated for about one year on 2 AAA batteries. The Aqara Temperature and Humidity Sensor has no screen but is rated for roughly two years on a CR2032 coin cell.
Buyers who want a cheap, standalone sensor with a readable display and Bluetooth setup, especially SmartThings users or anyone already in the SwitchBot ecosystem who may add a Hub later for alerts and remote access.
Zigbee smart home builders on HomeKit, Home Assistant or Alexa who want a discreet, screenless sensor with a longer battery life and an extra atmospheric-pressure reading, and who already run a Zigbee hub.
