In this week's episode of the HomeKit Insider Podcast, your hosts break down the changes in HomeKit in iOS 16, look at the new Sonos Sub Mini, talk about updated Lutron switches, and more.
HomeKit Insider
The Sonos Sub Mini has been rumored for quite a while but it has now arrived on the scene with a $429 price tag. Designed to complement the Sonos Beam and Sonos Ray soundbars, the Sonos Sub Mini will add more oomph and power to your audio system.
We also saw the debut of new paddle switches from Lutron. The new switches have a more traditional look and feel, compared to the pico switches the company has used to date.
Finally, we revisit iOS 16 now that it has been released as well as a couple of changes in iOS 16.1.
