Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the motion sensor's ease of use, reliable motion detection, and long battery life. Many appreciate its small size and responsiveness, as well as its compatibility with other smart home devices and temperature monitoring capabilities. However, some customers have expressed a desire for a more versatile mount.

    I love this sensor since I can pair it with other smart items. Sort of a lag when detecting you but still recognize me most of the time!

    Cannot use outdoors

    I bought this to use as a temperature and motion sensor for my front door. However, based on my own research, it doesn't seem like it can be used outdoors - my own fault for not realizing before I purchased. That said, it's not clear at all on the Best Buy website that this is the case. Besides that, it doesn't seem like it supports what should seem like an obvious scenario through the SmartThings app. I wanted to trigger my front porch light to turn on when it detected motion and remain on while motion was detected. Then, turn off once no motion was detected after say 5 minutes or so. After doing research, seems like this can be accomplished through 3rd party apps, but who wants to do that? As a temperature sensor it works fine. I wanted to measure the temperature outdoors so I stuck it to the underside of my metal prep table on my covered patio. The sensor is magnetic, so it stuck without any adhesive. I know it's not supposed to go outside, but otherwise, the device is useless to me, so I'm taking a chance on my table protecting it.
