From setup and calibration to real-world strengths and trade-offs, this review covers where it fits and where it falls short. What It Is: A Matter over Thread presence sensor designed for “walk in, lights on” automations, with support for Apple Home, Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings, and Home Assistant. Key Features: mmWave radar for micro-movement detection, PIR for filtering non-human motion, light-level sensing, three configurable zones, AI-based anti-interference tuning, and claimed battery life of up to 3 years 🔋 Setup & Installation: The video walks through Bluetooth onboarding in the Meross app, calibration, pairing mode, and adding the sensor to a Matter controller over Thread for broader smart home integration. Configuration Highlights: Range tuning, sensitivity profiles, real-time presence graphs, lux readings, sensor entities for automations, and zone-based triggers make this a flexible option for custom routines ⚙️ Final Verdict: The MS605 looks like a practical, reliable choice for smart homes that want better presence detection without a proprietary hub.
