In the UK, I use a Frient Zigbee smoke detector that works with my V2 SmartThings hub.
What country see you located?
I am based in UK
The Frient product works well, and since recently doesn’t even need its proprietary driver anymore. The siren is available as an actor in routines, ST Home Monitoring can therefore fire all the sirens when one alarm triggers. Battery life has been rock solid, two years and minimal percentage used so far. [Note that in cold rooms the battery status looks weak but actually isn’t.]
In a new install today, I’d also consider the new Matter/Thread versions of the Heiman detectors.
Note that none of these are network forwarders, so you do need to have other, non battery powered Zigbee (or Thread respectively) devices nearby for a good connection and low battery usage. So if you already have a lot of Zigbee devices around the house, Frient would be a better choice.
