Humidity sensor- xiaomi mijia?

I got this one from amazon for 280 rs
It takes way longer to update the temperature readings, there are products on Amazon which mention 10 seconds update time, my lg ac is reporting 28C atm but this product is reporting 31.5C, the humidity values changes almost instantly but that's not the case with temp reading

i saw a video of the HTC2 model in which it seems like the temperature is updating in real time

There's also the temperature only one :

Soo I was looking to get a humidity sensor..

The 200 rs ones on amazon seems to be pretty much trash. For 1000 rs there is a displayless Tapo one (but it needs a hub to work), a "Thermopro" one with display. Found a 2 pack Xiaomi mijia from banggood. Has anyone else here used this particular model from xiaomi?

Yep, they're great. They even have bluetooth and broadcast LE packets. Flashable OTA with a custom firmware that lets you disable encryption and mi specific things (https://atc1441.github.io/TelinkFlasher.html). Once flashed they can be added to ESPHome (esp32 with bluetooth) (can be added without flashing but you need to find the encryption key) to ingest data into home assistant (they report temp, humidity, battery level, battery voltage). I have 5 of these across 2 households and they've been working great, battery lasts more than a year. The data from home assistant ends up in grafana for alerting (dry cabinet for camera and lenses, battery low alerts).
