What’s happened? GE Lighting has officially released its Cync Keypad Dimmer Smart Switch and Paddle Dimmer Smart Switch. According to the company, this marks the start of a redesigned lineup built to give shoppers more control over their home and additional futureproofing.
Why this is important: Matter continues to play an important role in the smart home, and it’s great to see GE Lighting bolstering its product catalog with two devices that support the interoperability standard.
Why should I care? Smart light switches aren’t exactly the most exciting smart home gadgets, but they’re undoubtedly useful. It’s even possible to use just one switch to automate an entire circuit, and combined with Matter support, these are smart switches built for the long haul.
