This plug's low price tag makes turning all of your traditional devices into smart devices a reality without breaking the bank. The Bottom Line Gosund Mini Wi-Fi Smart PlugĪt the end of the day, the Gosund Mini Wi-Fi Smart Plug is an affordable option that gets the job done, despite its somewhat clunky user experience. We also did not like that the plug only works with 2.4ghz networks, which may cause problems if your router doesn't broadcast the frequency separately from 5ghz. To get our plug up and running, we had to use the Smart Life app as the Gosund app had a bug with iOS 13 at the time. This was obviously confusing to say the least, with an app named Gosund being available, and another called Smart Life, although they did look the same outside of branding. There are two different apps that work with it, both of which are shown on its packaging and manual.
Here's where things start to get a bit odd with this plug. This is disappointing not just because of its lack of deep iOS integration and Siri control, but because it forces owners to use an app from a manufacturer for control, which isn't always the best experience around. On the connectivity front, even though the Gosund Mini Wi-Fi Smart Plug supports Amazon's Alexa and Google Assistant, it does not work with HomeKit. There are apps for that Gosund Mini Wi-Fi Smart Plug: What I don't likeĭespite its fantastic compact design, Gosund's plug still extends into the area over the other receptacle in a standard double outlet, meaning only one can be used at a time. Performance wise, Gosund's plug delivers responses to commands sent almost instantly, and it was reliable and available every time in its accompanying app.
However, we found the level of brightness to be non-obtrusive as it performs its intended function, but isn't bright enough to keep you awake at night. The Gosund Mini features a circular frame, somewhat mimicking a standard North American outlet, which is unique for the category, and makes it look good compared to the bulky designs from other manufacturers.Īs with most smart devices, there are always the dreaded LED indicator lights on them to report their status, and the Gosund Mini Wi-Fi Smart Plug is certainly no exception to this. One is its clean, compact design, making it seem more like a traditional device timer, or remote control outlet. In-app features include smart plug staples such as timers and tap to toggle controls, which also extends to voice assistant platforms as well.Ĭompact and not so bright Gosund Mini Wi-Fi Smart Plug: What I likeĪside from the Gosund Mini Wi-Fi Smart Plug's low price-point, this smart plug has some other great things about it. This allows the plug to react to commands sent when at home, or while away, via an app or through a voice assistant. As its name implies, the Gosund Mini connects directly to your home network via Wi-Fi, without needing an additional hub.
