Honeywell Home RTH9585WF Wi-Fi Smart Color Thermostat vs Honeywell Home T5 Smart Thermostat

Two Honeywell thermostats, one meaningful gap: the Honeywell Home T5 Smart Thermostat edges out the Honeywell Home RTH9585WF Wi-Fi Smart Color Thermostat mainly on warranty length, since the rest of this smart thermostat matchup is close to a wash. The Honeywell Home T5 Smart Thermostat carries a longer two year warranty than the Honeywell Home RTH9585WF Wi-Fi Smart Color Thermostat's one year coverage, its only real advantage on the spec sheet. The Honeywell Home RTH9585WF Wi-Fi Smart Color Thermostat answers with a humidity sensor the Honeywell Home T5 Smart Thermostat does not have, since the T5 measures temperature only. Everything else lines up closely: both connect over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi only, work with Google Home, Alexa and Apple HomeKit, include a system health monitor and temperature alerts, and support voice control, though the Honeywell Home T5 Smart Thermostat swaps a color touchscreen for a larger 4.95 inch black and white display. Pick the Honeywell Home T5 Smart Thermostat for the longer warranty and bigger screen, and pick the Honeywell Home RTH9585WF Wi-Fi Smart Color Thermostat if you want humidity readings and a color display instead.
