Aqara Smart Wall Switch H1 EU (With Neutral) - Single vs Aqara Smart Wall Switch (With Neutral) - Double

Full Smart Wall Switches comparison in 2026

Updated October 2026
Data from the official Aqara site.
2026 verdict
These two neutral-wire Zigbee switches are close relatives, and the Aqara Smart Wall Switch (With Neutral) - Double takes it by controlling two circuits from one gang instead of one, with a marginally better owner rating to go with it.
That second switch is the whole point: one backbox can drive a ceiling light and a wall light, or a light and an extractor fan, which is exactly the situation where a single-gang module leaves you stuck. The Aqara Smart Wall Switch H1 EU (With Neutral) - Single is the cheaper and simpler answer when there is only one load to control, and it fits the compact EU backbox. Both need a neutral wire, both add energy monitoring plus overheating and overpower protection, and both work as Zigbee devices through an Aqara hub. Choose the Aqara Smart Wall Switch H1 EU (With Neutral) - Single for a single circuit at the lowest cost, and the Aqara Smart Wall Switch (With Neutral) - Double when one box has to control two.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is better overall: Aqara Smart Wall Switch H1 EU (With Neutral) - Single or Aqara Smart Wall Switch (With Neutral) - Double?

The Aqara Smart Wall Switch (With Neutral) - Double, which controls two circuits from one gang and rates marginally higher. The Aqara Smart Wall Switch H1 EU (With Neutral) - Single costs less and is the right pick when there is only one load.

What is the biggest difference between the two?

The number of circuits. The Aqara Smart Wall Switch (With Neutral) - Double switches two independent loads, while the Aqara Smart Wall Switch H1 EU (With Neutral) - Single handles one.

Do both need a neutral wire?

Yes. Both are neutral-required models, so the backbox must have a neutral available. Without one, neither of these two will work and you need a no-neutral variant instead.

Do they measure energy use?

Both do. Each offers energy monitoring along with overheating and overpower protection, so you can track consumption per circuit and the switch protects itself against an overload.

Do these switches need a hub?

Yes, both are Zigbee devices and require an Aqara hub to join the network and to reach platforms such as Apple HomeKit or Matter through it.

Who should buy the Aqara Smart Wall Switch H1 EU (With Neutral) - Single?

Anyone automating a single circuit in a compact EU backbox who wants the lower price, with the same energy monitoring and protection features as its double sibling.

Who should buy the Aqara Smart Wall Switch (With Neutral) - Double?

Anyone whose wall box controls two loads, such as a ceiling light plus a lamp circuit or a bathroom light plus a fan, since a single-gang switch cannot cover both.
