Quoya QL500 vs AT5810
Both Quoya QL500 and AT5810 come with an adjustable track that you can extend and retract according to the size of your window. Quoya QL500's track is adjustable up to 3.2m, while Quoya AT5810's track is adjustable up to 3m. This is not a very significant difference, but might be worth considering.
Quoya AT5810 as the newer model offers a more elegant and polished look. The motor is hidden and the track joiners are invisible. The ceiling brackets are also slim and the track is coated and in white color. On the other hand, Quoya QL500 is not coated, has an aluminum color, and has the track joiners clearly visible. These can make the QL500 less visually appealing than the AT5810.
#2 Features
Quoya QL500 vs AT5810
When it comes to features, Quoya QL500 and AT5810 have a lot in common. Both allow for schedule setting, sunrise/sunset automation, touch motion activation, and control via an app. Both are also power-cut friendly, guaranteed by a 3-year warranty, and directly work with Alexa, Google, and Home Assistant without requiring a separate hub.
One thing that sets Quoya AT5810 apart from Quoya QL500 is that it has a 20% more powerful motor that can handle curtains up to 100kg, while Quoya QL500 can only handle curtains up to 60kg. Quoya AT5810 also operates 20% more quietly so the noises it makes won't be as noticeable as with Quoya QL500.
In addition, Quoya AT5810 provides a new, special remote control that allows you to control up to 63 sets simultaneously. This will be very beneficial if you have a large house or an office that needs many sets of smart curtains.
#3 Installation
Quoya QL500 vs AT5810
One significant difference between Quoya QL500 and AT5810 is the type of brackets included. Quoya QL500 has both ceiling and wall brackets included in the package, so you have more flexibility to decide on where you'd like to mount the track. Meanwhile, Quoya AT5810 only provides ceiling brackets. If you want to install the track on your wall, you will have to purchase the wall brackets separately, which will add another cost to your total expenses.
Another advantage is that the ceiling brackets of Quoya QL500 are clip-on, meaning that mounting and dismounting can become much easier. On the other side, Quoya AT5810's ceiling brackets are not clip-on.
In terms of ease of installation, both smart curtain sets are comparable. You won't need to worry about complicated wiring or hard-to-follow instructions as both Quoya QL500 and AT5810 provide installation videos and a support team that will be available to assist you with any questions you may have.
