Description:
There are four main components to the Xiaomi Mi Smart Sensor Set. Those four are the Mi Control Hub, the Mi Wireless Switch, the Mi Motion Sensor, and the Mi Window and Door Sensor. For the latter two mentioned, there will be two units so you can install it in more places if you wish to do so.
The Xiaomi Mi Smart Sensor Set has a clean, neutral look which would make it easy to fit in any house or office. The simplistic nature of the design allows it to easily blend in with the environment and not draw people’s attention to any of its components.
What is in the box:
- Mi Control Hub (to be plugged in a power outlet)
- 2 x Mi Window and Door Sensor
- 2 x Mi Motion Sensor
- Mi Wireless Switch
- User Guide
- Protective Covers
- Installation Insert Tool (looks like a SIM Ejector Pin)
Mi Control Hub:
It’s white, circular in shape, and it reminds me a bit of those plug-in mosquito repellents, not that it’s a bad thing. Viewing from the top, you can see a lot of holes, which is where the speaker is located. Move down and you’ll see a semi-translucent circle going around the hub, which for the LED light. Move further down and you’ll see that it utilizes a two-pin plug to connect to a power socket. Just keep this in mind as it’s highly likely that you need an adapter for it.
Mi Window and Door Sensor:
One unit of the Mi Window and Door Sensor comes in two parts; a bigger pill-shape sensor, and a smaller pill-shape sensor. There are no buttons, but you can take it apart for the sake of replacing the battery. Both parts do have a self-adhesive sticker pre-installed, but it’s worth noting that the smaller one is magnetic.
Mi Motion Sensor:
The Mi Motion Sensor looks a bit like a miniature Bluetooth speaker. It doesn’t have any audio capabilities however, as it’s purely for sensing motion, and nothing more. Lastly, we have the Mi Wireless Switch, which looks like a white hockey puck. It has a self-adhesive sticker pre-installed so you can place it anywhere you like.
