Frequently Asked Questions
Which is better, the Sensi Smart thermostat or the Sensi Touch smart thermostat?
They are very close, but the Sensi Smart thermostat wins narrowly on price. The Sensi Touch smart thermostat counters with a higher owner rating and a 4.3-inch color touchscreen, so the choice mostly comes down to screen preference and budget.
What actually separates these two Sensi thermostats?
Mainly the display and price. The Sensi Touch smart thermostat has a 4.3-inch color touchscreen, while the Sensi Smart thermostat uses a larger 5-inch but non-touch monochrome screen and costs less. Their sensing, integrations, voice control and 3-year warranty are effectively the same.
Do both work with Apple HomeKit?
Yes, both the Sensi Smart thermostat and the Sensi Touch smart thermostat support Apple HomeKit, along with Google Home, Alexa, SmartThings and Home Assistant. Both also offer temperature and humidity sensing and on-device voice control.
Which has the better screen?
The Sensi Touch smart thermostat has a 4.3-inch color touchscreen you can tap directly, while the Sensi Smart thermostat has a larger 5-inch display that is monochrome and non-touch. Touchscreen fans will prefer the Sensi Touch.
Who should buy the Sensi Smart thermostat?
Buyers who want the lower price and a big, easy-to-read display, and are fine with a non-touch monochrome screen given the two units are otherwise nearly identical in sensing, integrations and warranty.
Who should buy the Sensi Touch smart thermostat?
Buyers who prefer a color touchscreen and value the higher owner rating, and do not mind paying a little more than the Sensi Smart for essentially the same feature set with a nicer display.
