New Aqara Products and Lifx Returns at Eve Outdoor Outlet on HomeKit Insider

Cupertino, March 4, 2024

In this episode of HomeKit Insider, your presenters discuss several new product launches and postulate how Apple could leverage AI in the smart home. Aqara announced two new products this week. They first went back to Kickstarter for their new U200 door lock, while also releasing the T1M ceiling light. The door lock is a retrofit solution with Matter support and the promise of Home Key in a future update. The ceiling lamp has two different lighting zones and supports Apple's Adaptive Lighting. Eve quietly debuted a new product this week, but not for US users. The Eve Outdoor Outlet, available in select EU countries, brings Matter over Thread to your outdoor containers. The design is similar to Eve's other outdoor products, such as the Eve Outdoor Cam and the latest Eve Aqua. After a while of silence, Lifx is back with a new line of smart outdoor lamps. There are light strips, string lights, spotlights, and street lights that support the full color spectrum, Matter over Wi-Fi, and are among the brightest on the market. We wrap up the episode discussing the future AI potential for Apple Home. The idea of having an AI-powered summary that can tell you what happened at your home while you were away is very appealing.
