Scored out of 100: 45% customer rating, 30% review volume, 25% features. How we rank
A Long Range 4-in-1 with an adjustable bracket.
The most readings in one Z-Wave sensor, and small enough for a ceiling light fitting.
A plug-in sensor that never needs batteries and repeats your mesh.
A cheaper 3-in-1 with Long Range for far corners of the house.
Usually motion plus temperature, humidity, and light, and sometimes vibration or UV. One device covers a room's automations: lights on motion, fans on humidity, blinds on light.
USB-powered multisensors report more often and act as repeaters. Battery ones go anywhere but check in less often.
Most battery sensors on these lists are rated for one to three years, depending on how often they report. Low-power radios like Zigbee, Z-Wave, and Thread last much longer than Wi-Fi.
