  • The Eve Degree is a well-designed, understated environment monitor that's excellent for adding automations to your smart home. The sensor's HomeKit integrations and Elgato's experience in smart home accessory making combine to make the Degree a great upda...

  • The Elgato Eve Degree works well enough, but gets almost every ancillary feature wrong. A niche audience might get some value from it, but most consumers will not find it a compelling device...

  • There aren't any critical flaws with the Degree, to be clear. We do wish it had a backlight button, and Wi-Fi, but it makes sense to leave those features out. Battery life might plummet otherwise, and owners would probably get upset at having to buy new...

  • Abstract:  One of my complaints about HomeKit devices is that too many of them look like what father-of-the-iPod Tony Fadell once described as ‘ ugly white plastic crap. ' My Philips Hue switches and motion sensors, for example, work well, but they are undoubtedly b...

  • Abstract:  The first thing we noticed about Eve Degree is that it's significantly smaller than we expected. While Eve Weather certainly wasn't huge, Elgato has managed to shrink the size down of Eve Degree to about a quarter of that of its predecessor — 2.1” on each...
