Aqara launches new luminaire with HomeKit and Matter support

Aqara's new smart ceiling light combines aesthetics, functionality and compatibility with two key ecosystems - HomeKit and Matter.

Here's What We Know

With this luminaire, lighting your room of up to 200 square feet will become more efficient and atmospheric. The main bulb is capable of covering a wide range of shades from warm whites to cool whites, and the side bulb offers a palette of 16 million colours.

One of the aspects worth noting is the support for not only HomeKit but also Matter, which opens up many possibilities for integration with various smart home devices. From Amazon Alexa to Google Assistant, from IFTTT to SmartThings, this luminaire is ready to work in harmony with all your favourite devices.

With a colour rendering index (CRI) of over 90, the colours in your room will look vivid and realistic. And thanks to Zigbee 3.0 technology, this luminaire can serve not only as a light source, but also as a mesh repeater.
