The Aqara FP300 Presence Sensor is one of the most anticipated smart home devices of 2025, promising advanced millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar + PIR detection for highly accurate human presence sensing. Here’s what we know so far about its release and key features:
Expected Release Date
Aqara has not yet officially confirmed the exact launch date for the FP300, but based on their product roadmap, it is expected to arrive in late 2025 as part of their next-gen smart home lineup.
The FP1E, a similar presence sensor, was released in August 2024, suggesting that the FP300 could follow a yearly update cycle.
Aqara typically announces new products at CES (January) and launches them later in the year. Since the FP300 wasn’t highlighted at CES 2025, a Q3/Q4 2025 release seems likely.
Key Features (Expected)
Multi-technology detection (mmWave + PIR) for static & dynamic presence sensing (unlike traditional motion sensors).
Nooooo thats the whole point of the FP300, thats it battery operated. One of the major issues with all other mm radar presence sensors is that you have to run cables and power and in a new house build that looks messy.
Being able to put up a neat presence sensor with no cables is a game changer
There are plenty of other USB C powered presence sensors inc from Aqara
Just bought the FP1E last week to test out whether a presence sensor would be a good option for my smart apartment setup. Now that I know how well that sensor works, I look forward to upgrading to the FP300 when it launches! Hoping that’s sooner than later!
My Fp1e works great, but I think the FP300 will be even cooler and the big plus is that it can be placed away from the outlet. I’m also really looking forward to the release of the FP300
Agreed! Also love the fact that it’s multi-sensor, which would be helpful for my living room (which is where I currently have my FP1E setup). Once the FP300 launches, it’s gonna be a day 1 buy for sure! I’ll replace my FP1E with it and move the FP1E to another room where the extra sensors aren’t needed (Maybe my bedroom or bathroom… haven’t decided yet )
