Cube T1 Pro, REQUIRES AQARA ZIGBEE 3.0 HUB, 6 Sides to Control Different Scenes and Diverse Actions to Control Smart Home Devices, Supports Homekit, Alexa and IFTTT

Great device, connects to Home Assistant compatible. Slight hiccups getting it sorted originally, but usual steps of repairing and such resolved these. Mostly got it as a gimmick for a family member who likes this stuff, but found they're really into pushing it to its limits Got a whole range of functions assigned already.

I think the biggest improvement over the previous version is addition of the dice-like dots printed on each face of the cube. You could never be sure which face was where before. It's a shame that you must choose between Automation mode and Scene mode which limits functionality a bit but if you already have an Aqara hub this is cheap enough to justify trying it.

Took a few goes to pair it fully. X5 presses on the reset moves it to action setting. Info on the web. So far I have 6 different lighting scenes, tap to turn on fan, shake to open curtains. It’s novel and is totally in the spirit of home automation and fun!

It took lots of juggling to get this to work with Home Assistant but got there in the end with the help of a Blueprint. It only seems to work reasonably when on a hard flat surface and it has to be tapped over when flipping it. The knock feature is very hit and miss and yet should be the most useful as it would be suited to switching sources on an amplifier, for example.

this kind of stuff is what makes zigbee nonsense just fab. I don't use it with the branded hub and I did find it dependent on hub compatibility as almost every other function-rich zigbee thing on a zigbee net does, it's a common issue and a genuine bugbear with lots of zigbee things. it's unfair to single this one out over what may be proprietary issues. Perhaps it's got too many switches which everyone has to use [I forgot almost all of them] so as to get full value for money or whatever but it's just great. it's just fun. I deployed shake to switch on my reading lights. That's all. It does nothing else. I am wasting all the other functions. Every time I switch on my reading lights with a shake it just makes me smile. Worth every penny!

It only works on very hard surfaces and even then it's jñhit and miss. You have to keep retrying the cube side to get it to work. The rotate feature is also ropey. Sometimes it works then it doesn't. It also only works on some surfaces. It won't work in your hand.

Really easy to pair with the aqara hub. Once paired with Alexa, it can control non ZigBee bulbs and plugs. There is about a 3 second delay when the cube is turned to a specific side to activate an action. E.g to turn on a device. Overall great little gadget use it all the time.

This cube is one of my more unusual yolo purchases. It works fine with Home Assistant, personally I have mine paired via Zigbee2Mqtt and you require a blueprint to unlock the full functionality of it. Apparently it works via ZHA, however I have not explored that option. The combinations you can assign to this weird cube are huge. I have mine configured so I have to rotate it to the desired face, then bang it on the desk twice else you risk it triggering all sorts of automations when it detects motion. Be mindful that it's a battery powered zigbee device that will go to sleep when set down, so it usually requires a little movement to wake up. The cube is not perfect and the actions can take practise, however once you have them down and providing you make allowances for it, it's a fun product and definitely starts a conversation when guests see it on the coffee table. If you're willing to get busy with a label maker and a craft knife, you can make it look quite cool.

Producto de buena calidad tras una semana de uso bastante cómodo para hacer rutinas con luces y ambientes estaría bien que fuese compatible todas las demás funciones con alexa y Apple HomeKit pero ya con las seis caras se pueden hacer bastantes cosas aún así requiere hub para poder utilizar con ambas plataformas

Goed

Hue Dimmer Switch gibi birkaç farklı kumanda kullandım ve en eğlencelisi, en işlevsel olanı bu. Aqara uygulaması ve Aqara Hub M1S ile kullanıyorum. Cihazı elimde tuttuğumda Aqara Camera E1 gizlilik moduna girmesi için otomasyon kurdum. Aynı zamanda sağa sola döndürme otomasyonu kurup Aqara Roller Shade’e bağlı perdemi açıp kapatıyorum. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 numaralı yüzlerini de HomeKit üzerinden ışıkları ve sahneleri ayarlaması için kullanıyorum. Aşırı bariz bir gecikme hissetmedim.

very cool item for the aqara ecosystem Easily impress your friends when dimming the lights with spinning the cube on the desk and more :) supports all the old cube methods (switchable in the aqara app) and adds new methods special to the T1 pro model do note - this requires one of the aqara\xiaomi zigbee hubs to work!

Acheté en octobre 2024 pour 27,99€, l'Aqara Contrôleur Cube T1 Pro s'est rapidement imposé comme le petit génie de ma maison connectée. Attention, ce n'est pas un simple gadget, ni un jouet, mais un véritable assistant domotique déguisé en cube ! L'installation est un jeu d'enfant : il faut ouvrir la face 6 du cube avec une languette métallique fournie pour appuyer sur le bouton d'appairage. Une fois cette mission accomplie, le cube s’est facilement connecté à mon setup Home Assistant via une passerelle Zigbee 3 Sonoff. La réactivité est globalement bonne, avec un léger décalage d'une à deux secondes selon les actions. Le secouage est plus rapide que le double tape, par exemple. Difficile de dire si c'est dû au cube, à la passerelle ou aux automatisations, mais ça reste tout à fait acceptable pour un usage quotidien. Le cube offre une panoplie d'actions digne d'un tour de magie : changement de face, soulèvement simple ou double, rotation, secouage... C'est comme avoir une télécommande universelle, mais en plus fun ! 😄 Grâce à un blueprint créé par la communauté Home Assistant, paramétrer ces actions est un vrai jeu d'enfant. Pour le moment, je l'utilise principalement comme télécommande de lumière, mais les possibilités sont infinies. C'est l'outil parfait pour ceux qui préfèrent les gestes aux commandes vocales. Imaginez : un simple geste pour créer une ambiance cinéma dans votre salon, en baissant toutes les lumières et en réglant la couleur. Magique, non ? Côté design, c'est sobre et élégant. Il trône fièrement sur ma table de salon ou dans mon plateau de bras de canapé, servant presque d'objet déco. Attention toutefois si vous avez une table en verre : utilisez un dessous de verre pour protéger votre surface (le cube, lui, est assez robuste). L'autonomie de la batterie semble bonne jusqu'à présent, aucun souci à signaler de ce côté-là. En conclusion, l'Aqara Contrôleur Cube T1 Pro est bien plus qu'un simple gadget. C'est une baguette magique pour votre maison connectée, offrant une façon ludique et intuitive de contrôler votre environnement. Certes, il y a un léger délai dans certaines actions, mais la polyvalence et la facilité d'utilisation compensent largement ce petit défaut. Si vous cherchez à ajouter une touche de magie à votre domotique, ce cube est fait pour vous. Il transformera vos gestes en véritables tours de passe-passe domotiques !
