… For me, HA has given me the ability to control more things across different ecosystems, that normally wouldn't be possible. For instance, I'm using my Hue motion sensor to turn on some dumb recessed bulbs in the bathroom, which is controlled by a Z-Wave dimmer, and the brightness is adjusted according to whatever time it is - late at night it turns on to about 10% so you can just about see, but not be woken up more by bright lights. Normally this wouldn't be possible, and I'd need a Z-Wave PIR to do that; but the Hue ones are cheaper. Furthermore, when the same motion sensor registers that …

Philips hue motion sensors. These motion sensors are probably the best I've used. The rest of their stuff is fine. It always works and gets the job done reliably.

I'm just starting to grow my collection of their devices but so far i am very happy with them.

UK here, but I use both Aqara temp+humidity sensors and Hue motion sensors (which also have lux and temp). The Aqara are more accurate out of the box, but I calibrate them annually (offset with a template sensor) so that's not a problem. Both work well for me. The Hue's (2x AAA) battery last well over a year but is dependant on how much motion is detected/reported. The Aqara's (1x CR2032) last for \~2 years.

Tried restart of both bridges and HA. All motion sensors is discovered by Apple HomeKit, so seems like an issue with the integration.
