Aqara Hub M1S Gen 2 Smart Home Hub
Advanced smart home hub with Zigbee 3.0 support, connecting up to 128 devices, built-in alarm speaker, RGB lighting, and full compatibility with major smart ecosystems.
Aqara Hub M1S Gen 2 – Zigbee 3.0 Smart Home Control
The Aqara Hub M1S Gen 2 is a compact smart home control center that connects compatible Aqara sensors, switches, and connected devices through Zigbee 3.0 technology. It serves as a central connection point for building a more convenient and responsive smart home.
The hub combines device management, automation, security alerts, and ambient lighting in a single unit. Through the Aqara Home app, users can manage supported devices and create routines that suit their everyday needs.
The Aqara M1S Gen 2 also includes a built-in 2W speaker, an RGB LED light ring, and an illumination sensor. These features allow it to act as more than a basic Zigbee connection gateway.
Compatible integrations with Apple Home, Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and IFTTT provide additional ways to interact with supported smart home products. Availability varies by device, platform, and setup.
Zigbee 3.0 Smart Home Connectivity
The Aqara Zigbee 3.0 Hub connects compatible devices through a Zigbee network, including selected motion sensors, door and window sensors, smart switches, and other supported Aqara products.
Zigbee 3.0 offers energy-efficient communication and responsive interaction between connected devices, making it suitable for home automation systems.
Connect Up to 128 Aqara Devices
Build a larger smart home by connecting up to 128 compatible Aqara Zigbee child devices.
Reaching the maximum capacity requires suitable Zigbee repeaters, such as supported smart plugs or compatible wired switches with neutral. The number of devices supported in practice depends on the network configuration.
Built-In 2W Speaker and Alarm
The integrated 2-watt speaker can be used for an alarm, doorbell alerts, and other supported audio notifications.
When connected to compatible Aqara sensors, it can help provide audible alerts for selected security and automation events.
RGB Night Light with 18 LEDs
A built-in RGB light ring contains 18 LEDs with configurable colors and brightness levels.
The light can function as a night light, ambient accent, or visual notification within supported smart home scenarios.

Built-In Illumination Sensor
The integrated light sensor can detect ambient illumination and make that information available for supported Aqara Home automations.
For example, compatible lighting routines may be configured to respond to changes in room brightness. The available behavior depends on connected devices and automation settings.
Smart Security and HomeKit Alarm Modes
The hub can form part of an Aqara security setup when combined with compatible door, window, or motion sensors.
Its built-in speaker can provide audible alerts when supported security conditions are triggered.
The device also supports the four HomeKit security system modes: Home, Away, Night, and Off.
These modes help users configure suitable security behavior according to their household routines and connected equipment.
Local Automation and Smart Scenes
The hub supports compatible local automations within the Aqara ecosystem, helping connected devices respond to supported events without requiring every action to be processed through an external cloud service.
For example, a door sensor may be used to activate a supported alert, while a motion sensor can trigger compatible smart lighting.
Some locally configured automations may continue working during an internet outage, provided the hub remains powered and the required devices are available.
Cloud-dependent features, remote access, and third-party integrations may still require an internet connection.
Apple Home, Alexa and Google Integration
The Aqara ecosystem supports selected integrations with Apple Home, Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and IFTTT.
This allows compatible Aqara products to participate in wider smart home systems and supported voice-control experiences.
However, not all connected devices or Aqara Home features are available on every platform. Compatibility should be checked for each product and desired function.
Enhanced 2.4GHz Wi-Fi Connectivity
The hub connects to compatible home routers using 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. It features a 2×2 MIMO antenna to improve wireless communication and reliability.
WPA3 support adds a wireless security option for compatible networks.
The hub does not connect directly to a 5GHz-only Wi-Fi network and is not a Wi-Fi router or range extender.
Compact Design and Installation
The compact, round design is suitable for indoor smart home installations. The hub plugs directly into a compatible power outlet and requires a stable power connection.
For reliable Zigbee coverage, install the device in a suitable position relative to the connected Aqara products and the home Wi-Fi network.
Make sure the plug version matches the intended outlet before installation.
Everyday Smart Home Applications
A connected motion sensor can help automate hallway lighting, while compatible door and window sensors may be used for alerts or household routines.
The built-in RGB light can serve as a night light, and the speaker can provide audible notifications for supported events.
This combination makes the device useful for apartments and homes that need centralized Aqara device management, automation, and alerts.
