Its installation process isn’t technically complicated, but it required more dexterity and patience than the steps for the Aqara model.It won’t interrupt a conversation. In normal operation, the SwitchBot Curtain 3 runs with just a slight hum—the sound isn’t jarring, but you can definitely tell when the device has been triggered. (The same is true for the Aqara Curtain Driver E1.) In my tests, the sound wasn’t loud enough to wake my napping son when the curtains closed on schedule as the intense late-afternoon sun streaked through the window.However, the Curtain 3 also has what SwitchBot calls QuietDrift, which is designed to make the opening and closing movements all but undetectable. And it works: In that mode the SwitchBot opener was 24 decibels quieter than in normal mode when I measured it with a sound-meter app 1 foot away from the device. It’s quiet enough that you could sleep through it—and I often did when the curtain automatically opened in the morning.In the QuietDrift mode, the opener didn’t drop to the 25-decibel claim on SwitchBot’s site, but a decibel reading in the low 30s is significant enough that the sound sinks well into the background.The reason it’s quieter, however, is that QuietDrift is slow—really slow. My two 50-inch-wide curtain panels took about 10 seconds longer to open or close with the device in QuietDrift compared with the normal setting. In most situations this will be fine, as it basically becomes a background motion that you barely notice.The main caveat is that QuietDrift works only for schedules and automations, so it doesn’t work when you’re opening and closing the curtains on demand in the app, through voice assistants, or with the remote. In addition, enabling QuietDrift drains the batteries faster (another reason to invest in SwitchBot’s solar-panel accessory).SwitchBot says that the device’s 3,350 mAh battery should last for as long as eight months before needing to be charged. By comparison, Aqara claims that the 6,400 mAh battery in the Curtain Driver E1 will work for up to one year.Be prepared to invest in accessories. The Curtain 3 isn’t really smart unless you also buy the $70 SwitchBot Hub 2, which adds remote access and the full range of smart-home options, including voice control. Without a hub, you’re limited to controlling the Curtain 3 by Bluetooth, within a range of roughly 30 feet or less, and you don’t have the ability to create automations or control the device remotely.SwitchBot also sells a compatible solar charger (about $25 per opener, or sold in a pack of two for about $50 or four for nearly $100), which is worth the investment: The solar charger eliminates worries about changing or recharging batteries, and it has a built-in light sensor, which you can use for creating automations. After you plug in the solar panel and straighten its connector arm, the app automatically recognizes the accessory, showing a little sun on the battery display icon.SwitchBotThe optional solar panel connects securely and then hangs down from the SwitchBot Curtain 3.

When installed, the Curtain 3 itself is fully hidden from people inside the house, staying behind most curtains, which is terrific—these things aren’t meant to be a distraction. But that depends on the fabric of your curtains: If you have gauzy, light-filtering material instead of something opaque, you might be able to see the silhouette of the Curtain 3, and that goes double for the solar-panel charger, which is distracting.

Each SwitchBot Curtain 3 has two hooked arms that snap onto the curtain rod. (SwitchBot gave this design an excellent name, calling it DynamiClamp.) You can remove the arms from the main part of the curtain opener by pressing the tab on each side of the unit. SwitchBot suggests removing one of the arms during installation, so you start by hooking one arm on the curtain rod attached to the main robot; once that’s in place, you attach the second arm and connect everything together. Installing the curtain opener in this order is supposed to make things easier, but the arms don’t have much give and are kind of stubborn when you try to position them correctly, a task that could be a challenge or require assistance depending on your level of dexterity and mobility.It can’t be fully hidden.
