HomeKit Authoritys thoughts
Matter and Thread are going are set to be big buzzwords for the smart home in 2022 and it’s great to see Netatmo onboard. I have been using Thread enabled devices for the past 12 months with the Nanoleaf essentials smart lights and the Eve Weather. The most noticeable difference from the outset has been speed and reliability over Bluetooth connected smart home devices.
So this latest announcement by Netatmo is great news for this type of device. Although it will not be able to act as a Thread device to boost the network, the Thread capabilities will help with improved battery life and response times for this device

The Netatmo Smart Security Sensor will go on sale in Q2 and there’re is no details on pricing. If you have a question or a comment, then leave it below. You can also follow HomeKit Authority on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Instagram for the latest HomeKit News.
