A more robust and reliable smart home from Ikea.
“I might not even call it a smarter home, or a smart home, because it is really just home,” says Töreman. “It is the evolution of home.”The new Dirigera hub stands 2.7cm high with an 11.2cm diameter, making it about half as tall and ever so slightly wider than the old Trådfri gateway that measured 4.5cm high and 11cm across. The new hub is fitted with an Ethernet port and a USB-C jack for power.
“Matter is enabling us to create a more seamless experience for our customers and will strengthen the interoperability in smart homes and between smart products,” says Töreman. “For us, this means lowering the thresholds for those looking into setting up a smart home or expanding their existing one since we know that some customers are having questions around what works with what.”
Remember, Matter doesn’t cover all smart home devices yet. The current list is plugs, bulbs, switches, door locks, thermostats, blinds, sensors, garage door controllers, wireless access points and bridges, and TVs. That means Ikea’s low-priced Symfonisk series of Sonos-enabled speakers aren’t part of this discussion yet. Sonos didThe hub plugged into power and Ethernet alongside the overhauled Home Smart app and shortcut button.
There also won’t be any upgrade deals; Trådfri owners will have to pay full price for the Dirigera hub when it launches in October, but all your Ikea Home Smart devices should migrate over just fine. The final price for the Dirigera hub is still TBD, but it will cost more than the Trådfri gateway, which currently sells for $29 / €29. “It is a little bit more expensive since it also has more capabilities and more functionality,” says Töreman.
