HomeKit Insider
Since the last episode, we saw an unreleased version of the Eve Cam show up in regulatory databases. No changes could be discerned though, other than a new squared-off design.
The Masonite smart door that we first saw at CES 2022 is now available. The door incorporates a Yale smart lock, a ring doorbell, presence lights, and a contact sensor that are all hardwired to power.
Aqara has finally released its T1 light strip, its first smart lighting product. It has ten addressable zones, music synchronization, and Matter support. It connects to an Aqara hub via Zigbee.
Finally, the Roborock app got a nice update making it easier to clean your home.
In personal projects, your hosts lusted after the newly-announced LG suitcase TV that packs a 3-hour battery life, touchscreen, and AirPlay 2.
Stephen also showed off his Tidbyt smart screen that can show various widgets and tie into different smart services.
