Key differences between Shelly 1 Gen4 and Sonoff MINI ONE PM Matter Over WiFi Smart Switch

A summary of selected recorded differences between these relays. Check the full specification table below for details and conditions.

Feature differences among your selected devices
  • Dry Contact Mode (features): Shelly 1 Gen4 — Yes; Sonoff MINI ONE PM Matter Over WiFi Smart Switch — No (The manual's terminal table lists the two outputs as live wire output terminals, so the contact is not potential-free).
  • Energy Monitoring (features): Shelly 1 Gen4 — No (No power metering: its only sensor is the internal temperature sensor (the 1PM Gen4 is the metering model)); Sonoff MINI ONE PM Matter Over WiFi Smart Switch — Yes (Bidirectional metering, so it reads solar generation as well as consumption, with a year of local data storage).
  • On Off Button (features): Shelly 1 Gen4 — No; Sonoff MINI ONE PM Matter Over WiFi Smart Switch — Yes (A single press toggles the load; press and hold for pairing or factory reset).
  • Zigbee Router (features): Shelly 1 Gen4 — Yes; Sonoff MINI ONE PM Matter Over WiFi Smart Switch — No.
Specifications to check side by side
  • Bluetooth (connectivity): Shelly 1 Gen4 — Yes (Bluetooth 5.0); Sonoff MINI ONE PM Matter Over WiFi Smart Switch — For Pairing (The manual's EU declaration of conformity lists BLE 2402-2480 MHz for this model, the transport Matter uses to commission a Wi-Fi device).
  • Zigbee (connectivity): Shelly 1 Gen4 — Zigbee Hub required; Sonoff MINI ONE PM Matter Over WiFi Smart Switch — No.
  • Ac Load Voltage (power): Shelly 1 Gen4 — 110-240 V; Sonoff MINI ONE PM Matter Over WiFi Smart Switch — 100-240V.
Information still to confirm
