Seems to be accurate within one degree. 
So for they've been accurate and extremely useful. 
Only negative is the batteries are hard to source.

Temp is very accurate. Used a hand held temp reader to verify and is spot on. Readings were identical on my iPhone through ecobee app. Also gave the same reading when asked through Alexa for each of my three rooms.

In my testing pretty accurate. These sensors measure room temp as well as room occupancy and adjust your thermostat as needed.

The new SmartSensors have better occupancy range and faster detection than ever, an improved battery life of 5 years, and an immunity to detecting pets.

SmartSensor is as easy-to-use and set up as Room Sensor, but with a new pairing process: with SmartSensor, all you'll need for pairing is your ecobee app! Complete pairing from anywhere in your home for added convenience. It's backward compatible with previous generation ecobee thermostats as well.

The SmartSensor has a +/- 1.0F accuracy and is programmed to provide readings every 15 seconds. It will use the previous two values and average them into the current reading. Hope this info helps!
