Aqara releases new Touchscreen Dial V1 with presence sensor

The Aqara Touchscreen Dial V1 EU has been launched in Europe. Like many of its recently launched smart home products, this wall switch was on show at IFA 2024 in September, and again at CES 2025.

The Touchscreen Dial V1 has a rotary dial with haptic feedback and a 1.32 inch (~3.35 cm) LCD screen, which you can use to control connected smart home products individually or as part of scenes. It offers two wired switches and a further six wireless switches. The device supports Matter over Bridge and Zigbee 3.0, meaning it is compatible with a wide range of third-party smart home platforms like Apple Home, Google Home and Home Assistant.

The screen will wake automatically thanks to an integrated presence sensor. On the display, not only can you control connected smart home devices, but you can also review their energy consumption. On top of this, there are options to personalize your screensaver to show the weather, time or temperature, and you can also customize elements like the button icons, text size and colors.

You can now buy the Aqara Touchscreen Dial V1 EU for £149.99/€149.99. It can be purchased directly from the brand at its online store, where some customers are offered 20% off when they use a discount code displayed on a banner on the product page. Alternatively, it can be ordered via retailers like Amazon (UK/DE). When the US version of the smart switch will be released remains unclear.
