From AMAZON.COM review:

Pros:
* Setup was really fast, possibly because I already had/was familiar with the app, but the gateway connected right away, and the sensors are all pre-connected to the gateway.

* The water detection seems to work pretty well, usually immediately firing when water is detected on either the top or bottom of the device on the metal nodes.

* The app notification is usually immediate

* You can have a backup/alternative notification of an email alert

* There are 2 volumes (excruciatingly loud and medium) plus mute. The loud setting is painful to be in the same room as tbh and I wish it weren't the default so you didn't have to cycle through it to turn it down. See more info in the cons section.

* If I recall correctly, I had to set the sensors off on the previous version by wetting them in order to tell which sensor was which and be able to rename them accordingly. In this version, you can hit the button on the device and the corresponding icon will flash in the app so you know which is which.

* They give you 6 label stickers with the new version; I sharpie'd the old versions

* Great peace of mind if you have a sporadic leak like a basement that takes on water or just want to catch a potential appliance (water heater, dishwasher, sink) failure before it causes a bunch of unseen damage, particularly while you're out of town

* Minor, but the styling of the gateway and sensors looks a little more modern and unobtrusive.

* I believe some other differences between the new/old versions are that:
- Alexa/Google Assistant/IFTT are supported
- Range is way higher (197 ft vs. 1312 ft)
- Can connect via bluetooth
- Claims battery life has improved from 1 year to 2 years, but I have had my previous sensors for over a year and the battery icon on only one of them has only gone down 25% (assuming that is accurate)
- Can support up to 100 sensors instead of just 10, which is probably overkill for most houses, but I'm sure medium-to-large houses can easily use 10+, and they indicate it could be used for an apartment complex or other commercial situation

Cons:

* One unfortunate thing they didn't correct in the new version is that there is no way to change the volume or turn off an alarm that is sounding from the app. I discovered this (on the old version) when I was out of town and we had water coming into our basement from a bad storm. A friend was thankfully checking on our cats when it went off, but I had to try and tell her where the alarms where and how to turn them off while they were blaring, and then they went off again the following day with no one home, and terrorized the cats for at least an hour or two until they shut themselves off. It seems like a really big oversight to not be able to control volume and/or turn off the alarm from the app. My solution was to mute them all upon returning, which does unfortunately mean the app/email is the only notification I have, and there is sometimes a delay between the detector noticing water and the app going off, presumably due to connectivity issues, and it won't work if the wi-fi is out. It's often immediate, though, and is better than me forgetting to mute them before a trip and having them terrorize the cats until someone can shut them off.
* Still only supports 2.4Ghz wi-fi, as an FYI in case your router is only 5Ghz

I'd probably give this a 4.5 if I could, but the volume thing prevents me from assigning full stars.
