I researched about the best outdoor air quality monitor for the past few days because I want to keep track of air pollution levels around my home, especially with wildfire smoke and traffic pollution in my area. I read reviews on The New York Times, Consumer Reports, and Popular Mechanics, and they are marking these two as best:
Airthings 2960 View Plus - Air Quality Monitor

SAF Aranet4 Home: Wireless Indoor Air Quality Monitor
https://www.amazon.com/Aranet4-Home-Temperature-Ink-Configuration/dp/B07YY7BH2W
However, I am having trouble deciding which one would best suit my needs and need your expert advice. In my area, air quality can change quickly due to nearby wildfires and car traffic. I want something accurate, reliable outdoors, and easy to read on my phone.
So which one should I buy? Any recommendation will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
