SONOFF Matter Smart Switch Wi-Fi Smart Switch, Neutral and Live Wires Required, Remote Control Smart Scheduled Switch Works With Alexa And Google Home, 10A 2400W, 2PCS

Its early days but so far so positive - i have tried quite a variety of brands of smart switch modules including zigbee, z-wave etc but so far these have been most effective for me as i largely use them to control things that are quite far away and for outside electrical circuits and dont wish to 'build a mesh' of hundreds of things in order to reach them. Hence the matter over wifi worked really well for me with an esblished and far reaching wifi network it meant i could deploy them far away and get reliable, consistent operation. The reduced data and control points negative from using Matter did not bother me in my use case as i just want remote voice activation for on/off and automation routines for on/off which it does perfectly and reliably. I like the volt-free contacts for adding a local switch also. They were really easy to setup using multiple control systems that are Matter compatible too. The only thing I continue to monitor is their physical longevity - the quality of the contacts is not terrible but is inferior to most other brands I have used - multiple screwing/unscrewing of terminals I suspect present issues sooner than others I have used as they are quite flimsy - but if you are careful this should not be too much of an issue.

Seamless integration, reliable performance, and user-friendly operation make this SONOFF switch a top choice for smart home enthusiasts!

1000% better than the zigbee version and works without issue.

These are brilliant. Buy them.

Good little devices. They are very small, smaller than most devices that do a similar thing. So far, it just works.

I’m so impressed with these little devices. I run HomeKit and the Sonoff’s pair with the network in a breeze. A big advantage using Matter is that the device never wants to phone home, it’s clean and private. Homekit has been somewhat lacking in recent years but these Matter devices are changing all that. If you need to change to a non default setting however, this’ll need to be done in the native eWeLink app, which will unfortunately flash the device with credentials that cause it to reach out to the cloud all the time. I’ve lodged a ticket with dev to enable Matter users to change configuration if needed whilst keeping the device clean.

They work well at first installation but since I had to switch off power for some electrical work they absolutely will not stay connected. I've removed and re added them multiple times to my Apple based smart home but they don't work for more than a few minutes. So I wouldn't buy them again and would advise caution to others.

Easy to wire into the lighting wiring but i did need a deeper ceiling rose on 1 light. Had a mess about trying to connect them to alexa though before i read online i need to turn my router to 2.4g only whilst doing the initial set up. Works well my wife can now ask alexa instead of me to turn the light on.
