Facts and prices checked
The short answer: built-in magnification and a long warranty versus a larger 1x mirror for less than half the price
Buy the simplehuman Sensor Mirror Trio if you want 1x, 5x and 10x views in one mirror, a motion sensor that turns the light on as you lean in, about 5 weeks per charge and a 5-year warranty. It costs $300. Buy the Fancii Vera if you mainly need a 1x mirror with accurate light and a choice of three color temperatures, for $124, and add Fancii's magnetic 10x Lara (the pair is $141 on sale) if you want close-up detail. The deciding factor is magnification: the Trio has it built in, while the Vera is a 1x mirror unless you add the Lara. Both makers rate their lighting at 95 CRI or higher, so light quality alone is not a reason to pay more.
