Review: A good reliable hub that’s worth it for what it is. - The Aqara Hub E1 is a budget-friendly, ultra-compact gateway that plugs directly into any standard USB-A port, making it an effortless way to connect Aqara Zigbee sensors to platforms like Apple Home, desertcart Alexa, and Google Home. Shaped much like a flash drive with a pivoting hinge, it stays completely out of the way while supporting up to 128 child devices and even functioning as a basic Wi-Fi repeater. While it lacks fancy extras like a built-in speaker siren or nightlight, and doesn't support newer Thread protocols, its low price tag and discreet design make it one of the easiest, most cost-effective entry points for expanding a smart home ecosystem.
Review: Small but very reliable! - Great little smart hub easy to set up and connects quickly with all my Aqara devices. The compact size is perfect and fits neatly into any USB port. Works smoothly with Apple HomeKit and automations run without delay. A solid choice if you’re building a smart home on a budget.

## Features

Zigbee 3.0 Support (**Not third-party zigbee device) , enjoy the benefits of the fastest, most stable, and energy-efficient smart home technology. Note: Not all Aqara child devices are compatible with all platforms. Please see details for each device.
- Flexible and Small Size: The Hub E1 shaft angle can be changed within 210 degrees, which makes its placing extremely flexible. The Smart Hub E1 is compact and very easy to carry, size: 4.25” x 1.18” x 0.3”, weight: 58 grams. Occupies less space and can be placed almost anywhere.
- All-Round Compatibility: Makes Aqara child devices connected to it compatible with most popular ecosystems and voice assistants such as HomeKit, Alexa, Google, and IFTTT. (*The Hub E1 is not an end device, and it cannot be controlled by third-party ecosystems. In contrast, it exposes the supported Aqara child devices to such ecosystems and/or makes them controllable by voice.)
- Powered by USB-A: A regular USB-A port is integrated into the Hub's housing so that it can be powered from almost any USB-equipped device such as a power bank, power strip, outlet, PC, or even a router.
- Wi-Fi Repeater Function: The Hub E1 not only expands your Zigbee network but also acts as a Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz repeater and makes the coverage of other Aqara hubs and other Wi-Fi devices more stable. Please note: Only 2 devices are supported. Zigbee2MQTT and comparable third-party USB dongles are not officially supported by Aqara. Full product functionality may be limited or unavailable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good reliable hub that’s worth it for what it is.

Shaped much like a flash drive with a pivoting hinge, it stays completely out of the way while supporting up to 128 child devices and even functioning as a basic Wi-Fi repeater.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small but very reliable!
*by A***A on 21 October 2025*

Great little smart hub easy to set up and connects quickly with all my Aqara devices. The compact size is perfect and fits neatly into any USB port. Works smoothly with Apple HomeKit and automations run without delay. A solid choice if you’re building a smart home on a budget.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It works perfectly
*by A***R on 23 December 2022*

This little hub fits nicely if you've got one of those new plug sockets that also have a little USB port next to the plug as if flips up out of the way just taking up the space of the connector. Very neat. It installed first time, always adds new devices via the Aqara app without any problems and doesn't mind being switched off and moved around. Only annoying thing was when I changed broadband you can't change the wi-fi network the hub is using from the app. You have to reset the hub and set it up from scratch again and add back in all your devices. Fortunately, that is not something we do regularly but still an unnecessary pain.
