Small and sensor-rich beats big and readable in this one: the Aqara Temperature and Humidity Sensor is the stronger temperature and humidity sensor overall, winning on price, a 2-year battery rating against 1 year and an atmospheric pressure sensor. The SwitchBot Meter Pro is built around its 3.6" LCD, which shows time, date and a weather forecast, and it adds Bluetooth plus Wi-Fi through a SwitchBot Hub and better owner feedback. Neither carries a water resistance rating, and the Aqara depends on a Zigbee hub. Both handle temperature and humidity alerts (the Meter Pro only through a SwitchBot Hub), automations and history, and both work with Google Home, Alexa, Apple Home and Home Assistant. Go with the Aqara for a discreet, long-running hub sensor; go with the Meter Pro if a glanceable screen is the point.
