Sonoff has launched the new version of its well-known intelligent hub: the NS Panel Pro 120. In this article, we will make a complete analysis of this device, evaluating its features, functionalities, price and whether it is really worth buying.
Let’s get started!
What is the Sonoff NS Panel Pro 120?
The NS Panel Pro 120 from Sonoff is a multifunctional smart hub that allows you to manage a wide range of devices in the home, such as lights, cameras and security systems. The main novelty of this device is its 4.7-inch touch screen with a resolution of 750×1334 pixels, superior to the previous version where we only had 3.95 inches.
This hub not only makes it easy to control connected devices via Zigbee and Matter, but it can also sync with the eWeLink app for complete control from one place. So don’t worry, if you have slightly older WiFi devices you can also control them from here.
NS Panel Pro 120 Design and Installation
The NS Panel Pro 120 is available in two colors: white and gray. Its installation is simple, to feed it to the electricity it is only necessary to connect the phase and neutral wires in the pins intended for this purpose. In addition, for those who prefer not to install it on the wall, there is the option of acquiring a surface stand, which makes it a very versatile device.
Connectivity: Zigbee and Matter
One of the key features of this device is its ability to link Zigbee and Matter devices. This means you can manage a wide variety of devices that support these protocols, regardless of manufacturer. You will be able to add devices without limitations, such as smart light bulbs, motion sensors and more. Note that in the specific case of Matter you will be able to add an unlimited number of these devices to our HUB.
Total Control from the eWeLink App
Thanks to the synchronization with the eWeLink app, this update allows you to control all linked devices from your screen or from the mobile app. This includes both Zigbee and WiFi devices, facilitating the integration of equipment from different brands on a single platform.
Customization and Advanced Features
This device is not only functional, but also customizable. You can adjust the interface to your preferences, change the wallpaper and add shortcuts to web pages or power consumption graphs. Sonoff’s recent Rubik software update has greatly improved the user experience, fixing issues from previous versions so you can get even more out of the size and features of this device.
Intelligent Security
The NS Panel Pro 120 has three customizable security modes. You can set alarms that are triggered in case of motion detection or sensor triggers, sending direct notifications to your cell phone. In addition, it is possible to visualize directly on your screen the cameras compatible with this device, which provides an extra level of security and versatility in its use. If we wanted to, we could even know at all times who is knocking at the door and communicate with that person directly from the comfort of your mobile from wherever you are.
Temperature and Energy Consumption Monitoring
Another interesting function that is present in this equipment is the home temperature control. The NS Panel Pro 120 allows you to configure up to 10 different thermostat displays, ideal for controlling heating and cooling systems. In addition, it is also possible to monitor energy consumption, which will help you to optimize energy use in your home.
Advanced Modes: Turbo Mode and Router Mode
For more advanced users, the NS Panel Pro 120 offers a Turbo Mode, which amplifies the Zigbee signal to ensure no loss of connectivity in large homes. It also allows you to switch between Hub Mode and Router Mode for greater flexibility in managing your Zigbee network. This comes in handy when you have multiple devices or HUB’s and want to keep one as the main one. In my case I use the Sonoff iHost as the primary HUB and the Panel Pro as a secondary router to amplify the Zigbee signal and achieve efficient Home Automation Network coverage throughout my home.
NS Panel Pro 120 Price
The NS Panel Pro 120 has been launched with a promotional price of $65.90, but this promotion will only be valid for 200 units. Then we will see its official price, but if I have to tell you that at this price makes it a very competitive option compared to the previous version, which is on offer for $ 89.90. In addition, for staying this far you have a surprise, and is that at this launch price you can add a 10% discount coupon to save even more on your purchase.
