It carries a 5-year warranty against 1.5 years, adds Alexa next to Home Assistant, and sends its readings through an X-Sense base station, so alerts reach you away from home. The GoveeLife Hygrometer Thermometer H5104 counters with what the X-Sense lacks entirely: a 3.1 inch LCD with the readings on the device, plus automations in the Govee app, though it talks Bluetooth only. Pick the X-Sense Smart WiFi Indoor Thermometer to keep an eye on a cabin, a garage or a relative's home, and the GoveeLife Hygrometer Thermometer H5104 for a room you walk through and want to read at a glance.

What the differences mean

Reading it at home or from anywhere

The GoveeLife Hygrometer Thermometer H5104 connects over Bluetooth, so live readings need your phone nearby and the app catches up on the history when you return. The X-Sense Smart WiFi Indoor Thermometer reports through an X-Sense base station, which is what lets it alert you from anywhere.

Screen

The GoveeLife Hygrometer Thermometer H5104 has a 3.1 inch LCD. The X-Sense Smart WiFi Indoor Thermometer has no display at all, so every reading lives in the app.

Warranty

The X-Sense Smart WiFi Indoor Thermometer is covered for 5 years, the GoveeLife Hygrometer Thermometer H5104 for 1.5 years, a gap large enough to matter for a sensor you mean to leave in place.

Smart home

Both work with Home Assistant, and the X-Sense Smart WiFi Indoor Thermometer adds Alexa. Only the GoveeLife Hygrometer Thermometer H5104 runs automations, driving other Govee devices from its readings.

Which one to buy if

What owners say

Owners of both sensors agree on two things: setup takes a few minutes, and the readings hold up when checked against a reference thermometer. From there they diverge. GoveeLife Hygrometer Thermometer H5104 owners love the data: graphs, dew point, exportable history they use against landlords or to track an aquarium or greenhouse, and a screen with min/max values; they complain that it is Bluetooth only, which some did not expect, that the screen has to be read up close and that the AAA batteries are not rechargeable. X-Sense Smart WiFi Indoor Thermometer owners single out the base station reaching through several walls and sharing one app with their X-Sense smoke and CO alarms, while their complaints are an occasionally buggy app and humidity shown in coarser steps than temperature.

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.
