SwitchBot Meter Pro vs X-Sense STH0B Smart Thermometer Hygrometer

The SwitchBot Meter Pro, for a display you can read at a glance and for the widest platform support of the two. The X-Sense STH0B Smart Thermometer Hygrometer is worth choosing only if you already own the X-Sense SBS50 base station and need reach far beyond the router.

A screen versus a base station. The SwitchBot Meter Pro shows temperature, humidity, time, date and a weather trend on a 3.6 inch LCD and works over Bluetooth by itself. The X-Sense STH0B Smart Thermometer Hygrometer has no screen and cannot report anything without its X-Sense SBS50 base station.

Yes. The X-Sense STH0B Smart Thermometer Hygrometer has no Wi-Fi of its own and communicates over a proprietary 868 MHz radio, so an X-Sense SBS50 base station is required to receive the readings and pass them to the app.

No for local readings. The SwitchBot Meter Pro works standalone over Bluetooth. A SwitchBot Hub is needed to add Wi-Fi, remote temperature and humidity alerts, and Matter support.

The X-Sense STH0B Smart Thermometer Hygrometer, at two years, against one year for the SwitchBot Meter Pro.

Yes. The SwitchBot Meter Pro shows both temperature and humidity on its 3.6 inch screen, alongside the time, the date and a weather trend, and it can also display the reading of a paired SwitchBot outdoor sensor.
