Features

  • [Multi-Protocol Hub with Matter Bridge] The M3 is a versatile hub supporting Aqara Zigbee and Thread devices. It integrates third-party devices into the Aqara Home app. Supports advanced Matter bridge functionality, enabling Aqara-exclusive scenes and signals to sync with Matter ecosystems such as Home Assistant for seamless integration. Supports up to 127 Aqara Zigbee devices (** Not third-party Zigbee devices) and 127 Thread devices (Repeaters are needed).
  • [Edge Compatibilities and Local Automations] The M3 serves as an Edge Hub, prioritizing local control and automation. Upon integration, it supersedes existing Aqara hubs, shifting the automations among them to local operation (Some cloud-based notifications still require internet). Upgrade-friendly, it supports migrating Zigbee devices from older Aqara hubs.
  • [Smart IR Blaster with Feedback and Learning] The 360IR blaster not only sends commands but also provides accurate status updates by detecting traditional remote use. It connects IR air conditioning units to Matter, functioning as an AC thermostat when paired with an Aqara Temperature and Humidity Sensor. (Note: Only one AC device can be exposed to Matter. Functionality may vary based on the Matter integration app. For Apple Home exposure, use Matter integration instead of HomeKit.)
  • [Optimal Wired and Wireless Connectivity] Offering both wired and wireless solutions, the smart home hub M3 provides dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4/5 GHz) with advanced WPA3 security, and a Power over Ethernet (PoE) port. The addition of a USB-C port allows for mini-UPS and power bank connections, delivering unparalleled stability. (2A USB power adapter is not included. ) . Note: To ensure a stable connection, place the Hub M3 between 6 to 19 feet from the router.
  • [Privacy-Focused with Encrypted Storage, Easy Setup and Versatile Placement] The M3 prioritizes privacy by excluding microphone or camera components. It boasts 8GB end-to-end encrypted local storage, for device lists, configuration parameters, and automation configuration data. Additionally, it includes a mount and screws for flexible placement on flat surfaces, walls, or ceilings. Magic Pair technology ensures effortless detection by the Aqara Home app upon power-up.

Description

Once integrated into the network, it assumes leadership over existing Aqara hubs, centralizing data processing and commanding other hubs for distributed computing. Automations previously implemented in the cloud between hubs will transition to local Edge automations, ensuring they remain operational even during internet outages. Certain routers or mesh repeaters execute automation if M3 Hub fails. For instance, Curtain Driver and Door/Window Sensor automation remain operational without M3, ensuring a seamless experience. The M3 allows for straightforward migration from older Aqara hubs, enabling seamless network upgrades without manual device reconnections. The M3 offers dual-band Wi-Fi with WPA3 security, PoE support, and a USB-C allows for UPS/power bank connections, ensuring robust and versatile connectivity. The M3 prioritizes privacy by omitting microphones and cameras, featuring end-to-end encrypted local storage and 8GB eMMC for secure data. The hub's 95dB speaker functions as an Aqara Home Alert siren or for announcements, allowing custom ringtones to be integrated into automations, even without an internet connection. The M3 comes with a mount, screws, and sticker for easy placement on flat surfaces, walls, or ceilings. Once powered, MagicPair enables automatic Aqara Home app detection. If you've used Aqara Home and hubs, choose to lead M3 or migrate Zigbee devices to M3 for enhanced automation. (Note: The Hub M3 is only compatible with Aqara brand Zigbee devices, not third-party Zigbee devices.) The hub M3 is only compatible with Aqara brand Zigbee devices such as Aqara Water Leak Sensor, Aqara Door and Window Sensor, Aqara Temperature and Humidity Sensor, etc. The specific list can be found in the troubleshooting guide and user manual. Note: Incompatible with third-party Zigbee devices.) Aqara Smart Hub M3 Aqara Smart Hub Hub M2 Aqara Smart Hub Hub M100 Aqara Smart Hub M1S Gen2 Aqara Smart Hub E1

    • Good for smart home
I love this hub. I used it to add a split type ac to my HomeKit setup. When I got it didn’t have compatibility with my ac. I submitted a request for it and it was updated to support my ac within a week. It’s quick to respond with Siri and not too difficult to set up. It’s also easy to hide away since it’s pretty small. ... show more

    • Update: Recent Improvements Have Helped
My initial review was critical of compatibility between this device and other Aqara devices, but those issues have since been sorted out with an update to the Aqara Home app. I appreciate that the company prioritized my feedback, and the hub's been quite stable overall. I like that it can be powered using PoE, and transferring devices from the M2 to the M3 was actually quite easy for me, despite what others have said (though I will say that it was quite difficult to restore automations in the Apple Home app, but that's not really Aqara's fault. Pro tip: use an app like Controller after hub migration to restore HomeKit automations that you've backed up). ... show more

    • A high quality, high functionality device marred by a poor app and expensive accessories
A really good solid hub. Very reliable. The automations never failed to run. Nice built in speaker with various alarm options. Cool ablity to bundle together multiple sensors into a single Matter "signal". For example--6 water leak sensors--if a single 1 of them registers water, the combined signal fires and alerts my Home Assitant which is connected to the M3 hub via Matter. You can choose what Aqara items to expose to Matter, which is great., it doesn't just puke out everything unless you want that. If I recall it's similar for HomeKit, but I did not get into that too much. Why 4 stars? It cannot adopt 3rd party zigbee. This is not a secret and they do tell you this prominently in the description. But what I found is I need more zigbee routers or else some Aqara sensors that are far away from the hub lose connection. So Aqara's outlets are like $30 and normal generic zigbee outlets are like $12. So I was considering how I would need to add several outlets for the sole purpose of extending the Aqara zigbee network. Aqara may be better quality than most, but the cost of the required network rapidly expanded. Why pay 3x for outlets that are only going to be routers and will not even have anything plugged into them? And I would be adding yet another (third) zigbee network to my existing Hue and Home Assistant networks. Plus the wifi also at the same frequency. And anyway with a generic zigbee setup I can just get an _actual_ zigbee range extender like the Aeotec Zi. So the lack of afforable range extenders is a huge issue with Aqara. Then lets talk about the Aqara app. It is chaotic, jumbled, confusing, phone-only (no computer access except via a MacBook running the iPad version). Dashboards and interfaces you create are trapped on that particular device, not stored on the hub. It's a horrid task to try to set up the same things for my devices plus everyone in my family. So as an automation-only proposition it is good. If you wanted dashbords and you do not live alone with a single phone...it's not a great exprience. If you are all-in on the Aqara ecosystem, this is the only Aqara hub to consider. Its ability to form a redundant cluster with another Aqara hub is spectacular and unique. I am selling mine on ebay as it was not a good fit for my house. I hate to see it go in some ways, but my home assistant box and generic Zigbee routers are cheaper and as a complete system work better. I _am_ still using my Aqara leak sensors, door contact sensors, and temp sensors as they work great...I'm just not using Aqara technology to inteface with them. ... show more

    • Modern, good loud speaker but has a few quirks
I like that this incorporates Zigbee 3.0, Matter, Bluetooth, WiFi and Ethernet (with PoE) among other connectivity. Its about the size of an Apple TV, powers off a USB C PD connection or PoE and provides a great integration with Amazon Alexa and Apple Homekit - both of which I utilize. I also have this integrated with Matter into Home Assistant which then brings my accessories (U50 Door Lock, No Neutral Light Switches) into Home Assistant seamlessly. I did have a lot of issues pairing with the Aqara FP2 Presence sensor - but then worked out that I don't really have a strong use case for a presence sensor as of now so returned it. I would really like this hub to be able to pair with third party Zigbee 3.0 devices and not just third party Matter devices. I hope this comes in a future update. However, as of now, it works well. It is a bit on the expensive side, but I thought it was worth the premium for a bit of future functionality. There are other much cheaper Aqara hubs you could get if you need a basic one. ... show more

    • For me, the hub is largely useless.
I bought this thinking that I could enable remote management of the locks. However, almost all management requires you to be physically near the lock and connected via bluetooth. The only thing this hub really provides (for me) is the ability to remote unlock. Which is somewhat pointless, as I could easily just text someone a passcode. I assumed this would allow a local bluetooth connection to be administered remotely. Nor can you sync credentials across the locks. Passcodes and fingerprints must be set up on each lock individually. Nor does it enable the UWB approach-to-unlock functionality. Connecting the lock to the hub, for each lock, was somewhat of a pain and required maybe 20 minutes of repeated attempts for me (I'm using Android). It's a lot of work for nothing. Yes, it does allow automation, but I'm wanting simple admin functionality. ... show more

    • Powerful Smart Home Hub With Great Features, but Setup Can Take Some Time
I purchased the Aqara Hub M3 to serve as a central hub for my growing smart home setup, and overall it has been a very capable and feature-rich device. One of the biggest strengths of the M3 is its support for multiple smart home standards. It acts as a hub for Aqara Zigbee devices while also supporting Matter, which makes it easier to integrate devices across different ecosystems. For anyone building a more advanced smart home, this flexibility is a big plus. The build quality is excellent and the hub feels very premium compared to many other smart home hubs. It’s compact, well designed, and easy to place anywhere in the house. The connection stability has been solid in my experience once everything was configured. The Aqara app offers a lot of customization for automations, scenes, and device management. If you enjoy fine-tuning your smart home, there are plenty of options available. The reason I’m giving it four stars instead of five is that the initial setup and configuration can take a bit of time, especially if you’re connecting multiple ecosystems or learning how Aqara structures automations. It’s not overly difficult, but it does require a little patience. Overall, the Aqara Hub M3 is a powerful and well-built smart home hub that opens the door to more advanced automation and cross-platform compatibility. If you’re already using Aqara devices or want a hub that supports newer standards like Matter, it’s definitely worth considering. ... show more

    • Everything but Matter integration seems to work great.
Updating my review. Aqara support is amazing, I sent over this issue to them and after a couple fact finding steps I woke up the next day being told the issue was fixed and to try again. IT WORKS! I’ll leave my previous review below but the m3 is now my main home hub doing all my automations now I set up my m3 and did the hub migration, some devices showed as offline but readding a couple of them back to the hub and everything came back alive. What I cannot get to work is the matter integration. I've paired my hue hub to the m3 and for some reason I cannot control the bulbs! Well the hue hub doesn't show at all in the list of devices so I cannot get rid of them. Tried readding them and now I have over 100 lights that I cannot control or do anything with cluttering up my system. ... show more
