Seems to be a decent Motion Detector. It's only been 8 hours of testing. I will change my review if I noticed any changes.
To configure for Smartthings. On ST app, go to add device and scan. It will find "Thing". Go to Smartthings IDE website and look for "Thing" under devices. Edit and change to Zigbee Motion Detector and select update. Open back cover of Motion and hold the reset button until red light flashes. Immediately go the ST app and scan for devices again. It will find the motion again. Done.

I wanted to add Garage door open/close sensors to indicate door status. I have 4 Linkind smart switches and have had excellent luck with them so I took the chance that these might work with my Echo Studio with ZigBee and the Echo Studio immediately discovered the Linkind sensors. Very easy to install and comes with all the necessary hardware. Sensor and magnet have double sided tape. Sensor has a plate that allows for quick on and off when battery needs changing. Very pleased with these sensors and will purchase more. The attached photo is how I mounted them to our garage doors. The 2 inch hings allows the magnet to move away from the sensor when the garage door is raised and the sensor sends and open message. I can't take credit for the articulating magnet, I found it on You Tube and it is absolutely genius. These sensors are great if you just want an open or close indication

I just got these today, and I'm already very excited about them. These are by far the smallest contact sensors that I have found, and I've been through a lot of them. Maybe I have used have been huge and are an eye soar. This sensor is much more inconspicuous. You can see from my first attached picture how they compare in size to a quarter.Reviewed in the United States on 16 December 2020
They come with a DL2032 (which I believe is interchangeable with CR2032), and it is easily accessed by one small Philips head screw (second picture). In my third picture, you can see the maximum gap I could create between the magnet and sensor is about 5/8 of an inch. This is slightly less than the 0.8" that is advertised, but it's still pretty good.
I had a little bit more trouble pairing these sensors to SmartThings than I have with other devices, but for the size and price of these sensors, I definitely think they are worth the effort. I'll likely be buying more when I find a new use case.
Here is how I paired them with SmartThings:
On the contact sensor
1. I pulled the battery tab
2. Used the provided push pin to put in the small hole and hold the reset button down for 3-5s (until a red light started blinking)
On the SmartThings app
3. I tapped the '+' to add a device
4. Then clicked 'Scan nearby'
5. After 30+ seconds it discovers the device and calls it 'Thing'
6. I renamed the sensor so that I could better identify it
On SmartThings IDE (account.smartthings.com)
7. I logged in and click on My Devices
8. Click on the device I just named and clicked the Edit button
9. Change the DTH 'Type' to 'SmartSense Open/Closed Sensor' and clicked Update button
At this point, the app showed the right interface for the contact sensor when I looked at the device, but it showed disconnected (cloud symbol with a line through it). I then used the push pin on the sensor again to make it discoverable again and tried to re-add the device from the app. After another 30 seconds of searching it discovered the device, but this time with the name that I had previously gave it. The devices was then working properly at that point. I'm not sure if I just got unlucky with the pairing, but I had to do this for both sensors.
