Aqara is at it again with yet another new product, and this is a good one. Introducing the T1 Lightstrip.

I've been waiting for this! I love being able to stay in the Aqara family. All their products work great with my Apple smart home. Only issue I keep having is one of the Aqara switches keeps getting removed from the app. I think it's because my kids press it too long trying to turn it on. super annoying having to keep adding it back every other day

@user-rd9kb6ox1v 11 месяцев назад

Great review!!!

@Dr_Cole 11 месяцев назад

Another great video, Brad. I’m actually watching this with my 15-year old to see if he wants some light strips for his room, as he’s talked about it in the past. We’ll look at both this Aqara and the Onvis given several good reviews for that strip.

@TheBradLloyd 11 месяцев назад

Thanks Dr. Cole! The Onvis light strip has better effects with more zones but if you are looking for a solid light strip that works very reliably, then Aqara is an excellent choice! Hope your son enjoys whichever way you go!!

@garrybartle5117 11 месяцев назад

Just for your sake, it’s “TUNABLE white” (like you tune in a radio station, you’re fine tuning the white color temperature). There’s no letter “R”, you aren’t turning from one color temperature to another. Hope this helps.

@morells09 11 месяцев назад

Ya I was thinking the same thing lol

@MrDingleberry31 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the review. Seems like these strips can fill a lot of need. Where do you see the use case for the say Govee strip vs this strip?

@lthomas63 11 месяцев назад

Hey Brad, I have a quick question. My understanding is that you have to update your M2 firmware to matter (which I have not done because my understanding is if I do, I will lose the security alarm features)but if you do this, you lose the security alarm features in Apple HomeKit for the M2 hub). Do you know if this is true? Because if it is true, I have to decide between having an Aqara security system, or the new light strip.

@1csearle 10 месяцев назад

I have a meross light strip which doesn’t have the features the aqara one has

@rodrigoruiz976 7 месяцев назад

How many lumens per meter?

@Steve-tf1wv 11 месяцев назад

It's tUnable white, not tURnable white. As in, you can tune the white colour temperature.

@TheBradLloyd 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for pointing that out!! 🤪🤦🏻‍♂️

720p?

@evan 7 месяцев назад

my exact thoughts

@Bigglare 11 месяцев назад

Matter is King! Except when its a Zigbee device bridged via a hub, then its practically false advertising. Everyone seems to have the same video script. Makes you question the reliability of the review. Im giving a thumbs down, not for your work Brad but for Aqara's heavy hand on the three nearly identical "honest reviews" I've watched today so far.

@janr3inhardt 11 месяцев назад

full ack! I wouldnt have watched this video had I read „Zigbee“ in its title.

@AndrewDee 11 месяцев назад

What's the problem?I have aqara hub and it has more features because of it

@suryatej 11 месяцев назад

@Bigglare Can you please elaborate on this? I am planning to buy an Aqara hub and saw that Camera hub G3 just got Matter support. Does that mean I can use that to connect it to any other thread router? I am Kind of new to this Matter/Zigbee ecosystem.

@no-budhee6657 11 месяцев назад

I agree. I refuse to add a hub made by Aqara to my home network. Matter was advertised that we wouldn’t need a hub outside of our chose home hub. This is the case for a lot of devices, but Aqara does not follow suit.

@AndrewDee 11 месяцев назад

@@no-budhee6657 this is completely wrong. Matter is local and it needs a hub anyways. You won't be able to use matter devices without a matter controller. So what's the problem of adding a cheap hub

@nicholas790 11 месяцев назад

Matter or not, I will not buy any devices that require a separate hub so that makes this a no buy product.

@nev0076 7 месяцев назад

They are too pricey.

@kevinpiip3427 11 месяцев назад

WHY wouldn’t they just use thread with matter?!?!???? Its so stupid to use zigbee when thread is a thing with matter i fucking hate hubs so much

@GrantSoundsGood 11 месяцев назад

Matter isnt stable rn my nanoleaf bulbs have a super hard time staying connected. So for now. Zigbee fixes it and also your “boarder router” is a hub just you already have it. Hubs are the definite choice for stability. Even wifi stuff uses a hub ie your wifi router. Plus honestly your not saving much money going with matter for the time being. They are priced around the same and they still require a hub of some sort which as of now arent cheaper than zigbee hubs. Just something to think about. Dont hate on the hub bub!!
