Seems like a missed opportunity for Dreo. I don't see a Home Assistant integration. We you able to get it to work?

Guess what? I am that guy who was expecting "plug and play" from H A Green. And to be fair, it is not a bad attempt. I am slowly building up the products I can use with it but I lack the confidence to attempt to create my own Dashboards and separate pages for different areas etc. I would need to be led by the hand to attempt such for fear of corrupting everything already pre- loaded. But at the end of the day as mentioned previously, I was looking for plug and play and bringing all my app controlled smart devices in to one area so am happy enough. In respect of design, I actually love the basic see-thru design of H A Green. It has a look of "here's something I put together earlier from a box of bits I found in the cellar". Maybe I am just weird lol. Anyway, a nice video and one of the best I have seen reviewing H A Green. Thank you.

I'm planing to buy this but can't decide for sometime thanks for your review, it help a lot

@TristynRusselo 25 дней назад

I would really like to know if HA Green is any better or worse than running HA on a powerful server. I currently have HA running on my Threadripper server. It runs great but whenever my server is down for maintenance my HA is also down. I have purchased a Green, but have yet to set it up as it will be quite the task to migrate. I also fear that it will be slower or more laggy than my real server.

Ive got too many hubs and routines running across separate apps. Looking forward to having everything moved locally through one app.

Just started moving over to HA. Being unable to send voice commands to my region locked robot vacuum motivated me to move over.

Was the Dreo fan a sponsored product? Your review was not complete, every product has some cons yet you didn’t mention any, even if a product is sponsored, you have an obligation to your subscribers to give a fair and even review of a product that you promote, you also need to give full disclosure as to whether the company sent the product to you for free (gifted) or you bought it yourself, and will help to determine if your glowing reviews are trustworthy and independent or possibly swayed. These steps will improve the credibility and trust that your subscribers expect and deserve.

@Foojaleeckalikeelamaka 24 дня назад

Yeah agreed.

@AlexAlex-ng4vw 23 дня назад

He did explicitly say that this video was sponsored by Dreo. Whether or not they sent him the products or he bought them previously I don’t know. Maybe in an earlier video. But he did say it was sponsored. Maybe a watermark during the sponsored segment would help.

@6MonthsLater 23 дня назад

Yes, DREO was this video's sponsor. Though keep in mind, sponsored segments aren't reviews, they are 60-90 second integrated ads. This sponsorship was disclosed visually at the 0:38 mark early in the video, along with the information on which other products were purchased or given to us for free. We disclosed the DREO sponsorship again at the 5:09 mark at the start of the sponsored segment. We also disclosed the other products in the video we got for free from AmeriDroid at the 3:05 mark (Which were the Sky Connect, and Sonoff products). We take disclosures seriously, and make sure we're as open as possible about what we paid for, what we didn't, and if there's a sponsored segment in the video. The only thing that was a miss on our end was not putting up a title card with the DREO logo at the start of the sponsored segment like we normally do. Outside of that miss, if you have any other feedback on how we can further improve our disclosures, let me know. - Josh

Not having their logo at the start of the segment was a miss on our end. Normally we have that. But a "Sponsored by DREO" watermark at the top right throughout the segment would make it even more clear. That's a good idea. - Josh

HA works well enough if you use it with the random home automation gear you have at home already and expand from there, but where it really shines is if you purpose build your smart home around it and only buy devices that are known to work well and out of the box. Yes that goes against the "works with everything" philosophy but I prefer my stuff work seamlessly offline as opposed to having to use work arounds or using cloud integrations.
