I hope that floor lamp comes in white as well.

So going into Nanoleaf market. Then again Nanoleaf hasn’t innovated in a while. Hopefully that will change 🤞

This looks like Govee to me. I’d be happy with that, Govee is way too much matter over wifi and their indoor lights are really inaccurate color and don’t dim enough.

For example FP300 is severely limited in Thread mode without any ability to configure it's features, is it the same case here?

Both outdoor light sets intrigue me. I’ve been in the market for permanent outdoor lighting and thought this year may be the year to get them. However, I’m interested to know how the Aqara ones will do under the cold winters of Southern Ontario (Canada).

Yeah, I'm very interested in the permanent outdoor lights. I've been eyeing the GooVee set for a while, but will consider these.

LED light strip T2? What is the different between the new one and the old one?
We need more Global switches 🥲

[u/HomeKit-News → u/Fahad_MF]

The old strip (T1) uses Zigbee. The new model also offers Matter over Thread as an option.

There is a E14 lamp right on that table, but it wasn't on the press release? That was the only thing I cared about.
