If I'm building smarthome from the scratch, I would only be using aqara and zigbee. It works perfectly, works offline, and after changing my wifi router I had to pair again only that hub (other wifi devices I had to pair one by one)

I have three Deco X55s running a dual-band mesh, so to install this Aqara Hub I told the Deco app to put my phone onto the 2.4GHz during setup since this inexpensive hub does not have a 5GHz radio (and why would it need one... it would just increase cost and reduce range). Then I downloaded the Aqara app and paired as normal.

Once the Aqara Hub was connected to my WiFi, I used the Deco app to set the hub's connection preference to 2.4GHz, on the closest Deco satellite, and disable "mesh technology" since other reviews said it wouldn't work with a mesh (and the hub won't be moving around anyway).

It has only been a couple of days, but the hub has worked flawlessly with Aqara's "wireless mini switch" (a little wireless button) tested outdoors up to 100' from the hub.

I bought the Aqara Hub and button to control a group of Ring "smart lights" in our back yard since Ring requires you to use a slow, buggy app to turn on lights, or it relies on motion detectors which don't always see our dog. I was reluctant to add yet another hub to our home just to fill the gap in Ring's functionality, but aside from turning the lights on, being able to turn them off means saving batteries and reducing recharge time.

By installing the Alexa App, then the Aqara Home "skill" and setting a "routine", I can now turn on the Ring smart light group in my back yard with a real life physical button at the door instead of "get phone->unlock screen->nav to app shortcut->enter lighting screen->wait for lights to load->turn on lights". Voice commands would probably have worked work from the Alexa app, but I refuse to live in a world where I run around yelling at apps and hubs while people try to work, sleep, and listen to music/tv/games/conversations.

This is one of the least expensive hubs we have (especially compared to Ring and Hue, though the X-Sense and Diivoo hubs we have came in kits and could be considered less expensive), plus it's very small and does not need a mount as long as you have an extra USB adapter. It solved my problem, set up quickly, installed even faster, has great range, and was (relatively) inexpensive. I'm sure their other hubs have more features, but I don't need them and I'm glad Aqara has this base model smart hub!

Een geweldige Hub. Werkt prima! Is even zoeken hoe 2,4 op 5.0 te matchen maar was zo gepiept.

Sehr pünktliche Lieferung.
Installation relativ einfach leicht bis mittelschwer. Nach drei anlaufschwierigkeiten musste das Gerät neu gestartet werden aber dann lief es ohne Probleme.
Bis jetzt keine Probleme sollten aber welche auftauchen werde ich diese Rezession weiterschreiben .

Another great product from Aqara that does its job well and without complications!

Lo esperado según la descripción

Top!

I bought this to use with an Aqara Smart Lock U100. Set up was fairly easy and now I can control the lock from anywhere. I wish that functionality was baked into the lock so I wouldn't need an extra gadget but I otherwise like the U100 so it is what it is. I actually bought this right before an out of the country trip as a 'just in case' and actually needed it when the person who was taking care of the dogs struggled with the fingerprint reader of the lock. The only Aqara product I have (other than this) is the U100 so I don't use it for anything else. Since it does what I bought it for every time I've need remote access, five stars.

Habe den Aqara Hub E1 mit Tür- und Fensterkontakten eingerichtet. Alles klappt reibungslos, die Sensoren werden sofort erkannt und reagieren zuverlässig.

Auch die Integration in Home Assistant hat problemlos funktioniert. Die Verbindung über 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi ist stabil, keine Verbindungsabbrüche. Für grundlegende Smart-Home-Automatisierung mit Zigbee-Geräten genau richtig.

I had this for about 3 years until it died and Aqara replaced it with a upgraded version free of charge

Macht was es soll zu einem vernünftigen Preis

Does the job as a hub, breaks after about a little over 1 year, tho, just won't be able to reconnect, but considering how cheap the device is, I will just buy a new one.

Bin sehr zufrieden !

Very good work

Great little smart hub easy to set up and connects quickly with all my Aqara devices. The compact size is perfect and fits neatly into any USB port. Works smoothly with Apple HomeKit and automations run without delay. A solid choice if you’re building a smart home on a budget.

Product works ok

Trabalha perfeitamente.
Exatamente o que precisava para completar o ecossistema.

Does what it says, strong and good quality signal . For the devices it connects and it’s compatibility, i think it is just slightly overpriced. But overall does what it says on the tin.

Sehr tolles Teil lies sich sehr schnell und problemlos mit Router verbinden

polecam

Works great with my lock and Apple homekit

Works well but upgraded to the hub 2

it's good and work well!

Great! Easy to set up using Aqara app.
Seems to have a decent range and quite compact and discrete. Receives regular firmware updates through the app.
Been using a year now with no issues.

It fantastic when you are away from home

Me sorprendió. Era reacio a los productos Aqara, nomlos había usado nunca y me ha sorprendido la facilidad de instalación

Works great specially for the price, connects all my Aqara products perfect

I guess it’s okay, the Aqara smart lock works well I’ve only purchased this because of it. Seems like it’s okay I guess the USB port I use is faulty and this sometimes disconnects?

Easy to install and connect to a door lock.

It's a good one.
