The Hisense 350-sq. ft. Window Air Conditioner is a reasonably priced Wi-Fi-enabled window AC unit that you can control with your voice, your phone, or the included remote. It’s easy to install and did an admirable job of cooling in our tests. It doesn’t offer power usage reports or compatibility with Apple HomeKit and IFTTT like some other smart air conditioners we’ve tested, but it also costs less than many 8,000-BTU models, making it an affordable option for small to medium spaces.
A FAMILIAR DESIGN, BUT SMARTER
As its name implies, the Hisense 350-sq. ft. Window Air Conditioner is designed for rooms of up 350 square feet. It’s an 8,000-BTU unit with a white finish and dimensions of 13.0 by 17.5 by 18.5 (HWD). The unit weighs 48.5 pounds and will fit window openings of 13.5 inches in height and 24.5 to 39 inches wide.
On the top is a diffuser facing outward for directing airflow to the left, right, upward, and downward. Below that is a control panel with backlit buttons for Fan Speed, Mode, and Wi-Fi Connect. In the middle is the current temperature reading and temperature-up and-down arrows, as well as a Power button and Timer, Sleep, and Filter indicators. Below the control panel is a removable panel that hides the filter. To remove the filter for cleaning, simply pull the panel off and lift it out. You can clean the filter with a vacuum or wash it in warm soapy water.
