Samsung starts verifying Matter-compatible smart home devices
The program will verify that devices will support both SmartThings hubs and control through the SmartThings app. You ideally won't need a dedicated hub just to bring this technology into your household. Matter will support a range of assistants as well as connectivity like Bluetooth LE, Thread and WiFi.
The effort comes just days after Google committed to rolling out Matter in the fall. The standard has endured, and it's not yet clear how well it will work in practice. However, Samsung's testing should increase the chances of a smooth debut – it may just be a question of choosing the devices that best suit your needs.
