The MS600 is Meross's Matter over Wi-Fi presence sensor, combining 24 GHz mmWave and PIR with a light sensor. Over Matter it reports presence and light level, nothing more, and it needs constant USB-C power. I haven't run this one; the notes come from Meross's US store page, the CSA listing and Matter Survey data.
Standout: An inexpensive Matter presence sensor that pairs mmWave radar with PIR and a light sensor.

Local control facts
Home Assistant: matter integration, Local Push (home-assistant.io, checked Nov 7, 2026)
Matter: certified (csa-iot.org, checked Nov 6, 2026)
combines 24 GHz mmWave radar with PIR, plus a built-in light sensor
Meross quotes detection up to 12 m, with presence detection effective up to 6 m
Matter over Wi-Fi, so no hub or Thread border router is needed
Reasons to hesitate
must stay plugged in: it runs from a 5 V USB-C adapter, with no battery option
over Matter only presence and light level are exposed, per Meross
2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only, and Meross says it doesn't support enterprise Wi-Fi
Best for
room presence for lighting automations where a powered spot is available
Home Assistant users who want mmWave presence without Thread or Zigbee
Avoid if
you need a battery-powered sensor
you want zones or distance readings rather than a single presence state
Privacy and local-control notes
Matter over Wi-Fi presence and light sensor. Meross says the Matter integration gives offline control, so occupancy reaches Home Assistant on your local network.
