For the past two years, I have been using a Samsung Smartthings hub with their door and motion sensors. The problem? Every 2-3 months I was replacing the batteries in those sensors. I was completely dissatisfied with Samsung devices. Aqara was not the first remedy I sought. Sure, their accessories are dirt cheap, but wading through the number of reviews, there are just as many bad as good. On top of that, the fact that this is a Chinese company raises security concerns. I decided to replace all my Samsung sensors with those from Aqara. Additionally, since I wanted to integrate them into Apple Homekit, I wanted to get the latest and greatest hub from Aqara. And, once again, the reviews on this product were all over the map. At worst, I would return the hub if it didn't work. I am amazed at how quickly I not only set up this hub (pairing it with the Aqara app), but all the sensors and motion detectors I bought in addition to it. I wired the M3 hub directly out of my Eero mesh unit's ethernet output. It quickly connected to the Aqara app and soon afterward, I was connecting my accessories. No issues. Everything showed up not only in Homekit but in the Alexa app as well. Whenever my doors were opened or closed, an alert was sent to my iPhone (iOS 18) and Mac. All of this was set up within 35 minutes out of the box. The only downside to this hub is that it's expensive. It only covers approximately 60-65 feet and I have a very large home. I am either going to have to buy more of these hubs or the cheaper Aqara extender if I want to add more accessories at the further end of my home. I do completely understand, from the extensive research I have done that this is a half-baked product which has a lot of bugs. The fact I am only using it for basic monitoring functionality is probably the reason why everything has worked as smoothly as it has including quick pairing to devices. I will say that I went from being skeptical about Aqara to becoming a huge fan of their devices. I am amazed at how well they work, how long their batteries allegedly last, and how cheap they cost. I'm also optimistic that their new M3 hub will only get better through software updates. It's nice to have a device that can help all my different security devices, Alexa and Google hubs, and Apple Homekit work together. ## Features - [Multi-Protocol Hub & Matter Bridge] The M3 is a versatile hub. With Aqara repeaters, the M3 hub supports up to 127 Aqara Zigbee devices and 127 Thread devices. ( See Aqara website for a list of Aqara Zigbee devices on display at Matter). It integrates third-party devices into the Aqara Home app (currently limited to certain types of devices, will be extended over time). As a Matter Bridge, it exposes existing Aqara Zigbee devices with Matter ecosystems such as Home Assistant and Apple Home and allows Aqara's proprietary scenes and signals to sync with these ecosystems for seamless integration. - [Edge Compatibility and Local Automations] The M3 acts as an Edge hub, focusing on local control and automation. After integration, it replaces existing Aqara hubs, transferring automations between them to a local operation (*Some cloud-based notifications still require an Internet connection). Scalable in terms of upgrade, it supports migrating Zigbee devices from older Aqara hubs. (A reconfiguration is required for Matter and HomeKit; cloud integrations such as Google Home and Alexa retain all configurations.) - [Smart IR Blaster with Feedback and Learning] The 360° infrared housing not only sends commands, but also provides accurate status updates by detecting the use of a traditional remote control. It connects infrared air conditioning units to Matter, functioning as an AC thermostat when paired with an Aqara temperature and humidity sensor. (Note: Only an air conditioning unit can be exposed to Matter. Features may vary depending on the Matter integration app. For Apple Home exposure, use Matter integration instead of HomeKit.) - [Optimal wired and wireless connectivity] Offering both wired and wireless solutions, the M3 offers dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4/5 GHz) with advanced WPA3 security, as well as a Power over Ethernet (PoE) port. The addition of a USB-C port allows for mini-UPS and power bank connections, providing unparalleled stability. (*USB 2A power adapter is not included.) - [Privacy with Encrypted Storage, Easy Setup and Versatile Placement] The M3 prioritizes privacy by excluding microphone or camera components. It has 8GB of end-to-end encrypted local storage, for device lists, configuration settings, and automation configuration data. In addition, it includes a bracket and screws for flexible placement on flat surfaces, walls or ceilings. Magic Pair technology ensures effortless detection by the Aqara Home app when powered on. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CWLHSKYC | | Best Sellers Rank | #11,845 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #458 in Remote Controls | | Brand | Aqara | | Brand Name | Aqara | | Color | black | | Colour | black | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 1,642 Reviews | | Display Type | LED | | Display type | LED | | Included Components | M3 Hub | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 10.5L x 10.5W x 3.7H centimeters | | Item Type Name | Smart Hub | | Item Weight | 0.17 Kilograms | | Item weight | 0.17 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Lumi United Technology Co., Ltd | | Model | HM-G01E | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | HM-G01E | | Product dimensions | 10.5L x 10.5W x 3.7H centimeters | | UPC | 192784001165 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Aqara - **Colour:** Black - **Item weight:** 0.17 Kilograms - **Material:** Plastic - **Product dimensions:** 10.5L x 10.5W x 3.7H centimeters ## Images ![Aqara M3 Hub for Home Automation, Matter Controller, Edge Router Thread, Featuring Zigbee, Bluetooth, Wi-FI, PoE, IR, Supports Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, SmartThings, IFTTT - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61sFQ557qNL.jpg) ![Aqara M3 Hub for Home Automation, Matter Controller, Edge Router Thread, Featuring Zigbee, Bluetooth, Wi-FI, PoE, IR, Supports Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, SmartThings, IFTTT - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61LSu3U32sL.jpg) ![Aqara M3 Hub for Home Automation, Matter Controller, Edge Router Thread, Featuring Zigbee, Bluetooth, Wi-FI, PoE, IR, Supports Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, SmartThings, IFTTT - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61qof-xYTKL.jpg) ![Aqara M3 Hub for Home Automation, Matter Controller, Edge Router Thread, Featuring Zigbee, Bluetooth, Wi-FI, PoE, IR, Supports Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, SmartThings, IFTTT - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71UAHm795YL.jpg) ![Aqara M3 Hub for Home Automation, Matter Controller, Edge Router Thread, Featuring Zigbee, Bluetooth, Wi-FI, PoE, IR, Supports Alexa, Google Assistant, Apple HomeKit, SmartThings, IFTTT - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/612Zjz2DY3L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How can l ensure a stable connection for the Hub M3?** A: To ensure a stable connection, place the Hub M3 between 6 to 19 feet from the router.
