Humidity accuracy on Thingy:52

[Noel]

I was wondering if anyone could vouch for the accuracy of the Thingy 52's humidity sensor? I have an inexpensive humidity sensor already, and it is around 15-20% lower than the Thingy 52's. The temperature sensors on both devices read within 1 degree. 

Now I'm wondering which one is correct. Currently, the humidity in my apartment is 30%, according to the inexpensive sensor, and 47% according to the Thingy:52. Inside temp is 23C and outside temp is 2C. 

Thanks.

Hi,

The temperature and humidity sensor used in the Thingy:52 is the HTS221. You can find the humidity and temperature accuracy listed in the sensor datasheet as

• Humidity accuracy: ± 3.5% rH, 20 to +80% rH
• Temperature accuracy: ± 0.5 °C,15 to +40 °C
