- The Sonoff presence sensor SNZB-06P is the new player in the human presence sensor filed and it packs a very nice punch. I have been using this device for a while and seems like Sonoff has almost completely nailed it.
The very first thing you really feel about the Sonoff presence sensor SNZB-06P is that its tiny in it form factor. Its almost the size of a regular motion sensor so unlike other devices on the market that are pretty big, this Sonoff presence sensor SNZB-06P is very easy to integrate into any space.
The overall design of the Sonoff presence sensor SNZB-06P is actually very unique and original and it does look great, far from being an eye soar. The Aqara human presence sensors that are really the gold standard in this device category are big and bulky and require a lot of attention in placing as they can easley become a noticeable eye soar. The Sonoff presence sensor SNZB-06P doesnt have this problem at all.
But for me, the biggest and most important advantage of the Sonoff presence sensor SNZB-06P is that unlike other presence sensors on the market today, this device uses zigbee instead of wifi. this allows the device to be super responsive in detecting presence. in fact, the Sonoff presence sensor SNZB-06P detects presence so fast, you can almost rely on it to automate light on or power on actions that are usually time sensetive.
Another Super important advantage of the Sonoff presence sensor SNZB-06P is its price. It currently can be found on sites like Ali Express for around 15 USD, Less then a quater of the price of the Aqra FP2. Its doesnt do everything the Aqara FP2 does, but for this price point, its hard to ignore the Sonoff presence sensor SNZB-06P.
The Sonoff presence sensor SNZB-06P isnt perfect, it does have its disadvantages and if you want to know what i though those are and how the device actually performs, watch the video.

Loved the review, Avi! That was extremely fast detection. Can definitely see the benefits of adding this for automation.
Thanks for watching Frank. Have a great Christmas buddy!
Great explanation of what this device is all about. In turn, this is out of my wheelhouse, but I totally enjoyed watching & learning.
Thanks for watching Tony. I appreciate it. Have a great Christmas buddy
Awesome. Thanks for bringing this sensor to my attention. This sensor appears to address the issues that held me back from buying the Aqara, mainly it being WiFi-based.
Glad you liked it. Cheers
Thank you for testing the responsiveness! That was what I wanted to know.
Glad it was helpful!
How about the motion sensor that appears in Home assistant together with the presence sensor ? It is a pitty there is no settings to adjust sensitivity ...
Hello, do you know if it can be paired with ikea dirigera and exposed to homekit?
Hello, does it also serve the function of a zigbee repeater?
Hi. Yes it does
Shalom Avi
I purchased 2 of these sensors, have them integrated into HA via Sonoff Zigby dongle.
Latest firmware on both units.
Problem is that they seem to falsely trigger when there is no one present!!
I have adjusted all the settings to lowest possible detection!!
Any ideas?

Hi. Both of them? Do you by any chance have pets in the house?
@@TechMeOut5 hi
Yes but I think I found the issue.
I had another presence sensor in the same room!
Must have interacted with each other
Also, where is the illuminance sensor ?
Annoyingly, it's built in and can't be altered or monitored. It just won't trigger the presence sensor if there is enough ambient light.
