Eve Launches Matter-Enabled Eve Weather Smart Station

Smart home company Eve Systems today announced the launch of a new version of the Eve Weather that offers Matter support. With Matter, the new Eve Weather can be added to HomeKit or smart home setups from other companies.

eve weather
Eve Weather is a small cube-shaped accessory that is designed to provide outdoor weather temperature, humidity, and the local 12-hour weather trend. A display at the front allows you to see temperature and humidity at a glance, but the data also syncs to the Eve app.

With ‌HomeKit‌ integration, Siri can be used to provide details on the outdoor weather conditions, and the data can be used to trigger ‌HomeKit‌ automations. Eve Weather offers IPX4 water resistance so it can be kept outdoors year-round and displayed anywhere.

Eve Weather can be purchased from the Eve website or from Amazon.com for $80. Eve is continuing to sell the ‌HomeKit‌ version of the device as well for those who do not have a Matter-enabled hub, which includes the HomePod and latest Apple TV.

I have a Netatmo weather station with the additional indoor modules and it is bullet proof. I returned the previous version of the Eve Weather because I realized after I purchased it that it only worked at temperatures above -18 C. In fact, the Weather I tried froze up at temperature well above -18 C. Unfortunately, the operating temperatures of this new Weather hasn't improved. If you live in any of the northern States or Canada, it's useless. Pass.

Unless I am missing something, the hardware hasn't changed at all. The older model will receive a Matter support via firmware upgrade, so this looks to be just a repackaging.

I have an Eve Room and found it to be super high quality and reliable… so this device is interesting…

But I’ve heard good things about Netatamo ?

I find all Eve accessories to be garbage. They fail frequently and their customer support in Europe is dire. I have four Eve energy sockets in a drawer along with an old style Eve Weather unit, and my wife bought me the newer style Eve Weather as a gift. It works, but it's pretty crappy.

If you want decent gear, use a Meross socket and a Netatmo weather station if you want proper weather monitoring. It's obviously more expensive, but you get what you pay for.

Overall, I would avoid all Eve products. They are overpriced paperweights.
I really disagree; Eve products have been completely reliable in my smart home setup. This includes multiple Eve Energy units, multiple motion sensors, 2 Door and Window sensors, and their HomeKit Secure Video outdoor camera.

I only use Matter over Thread where possible, and have several HomePods as border routers. That might help. But general unreliability of smart home products over the years has now made Eve an easy first choice for me.

I am curious about these personal weather stations. Are the weather apps that inaccurate (for getting the current weather status) to warrant purchasing and using these apps?

Perhaps in rural areas, it probably has lots of use. But for typical urban and subarban areas, there are weather stations everywhere and the weather data from modern hyper local weather apps are generally close enough.

Two main benefits may be (1) the data from personal weather station is far more real time than the weather apps and (2) Home automation (although I don't think it allows for conditions like "if it hasn't rained in the last 24 hours, run the lawn sprinkler 30 minutes after sunset").

It would be nice if Apple's WeatherKit and Weather app can also show weather data from these HomeKit devices. Having to use Home or third party app to check the weather data at home is a bit tedious.
