Compatibility notes
- Zigbee 3.0 device with no native HomeKit; reaches Apple Home only through a bridge. HomeKit News (2022-11-08) reports the Hue Bridge Matter update exposes third-party Zigbee lights (Osram, IKEA, Sengled...) to Apple Home; the older HAP Hue bridge did not. Owners' entries here were HAP-bridged, i.e. via a general-purpose HomeKit bridge.
- SM308 Zigbee inline switch (UK); samotech.co.uk lists its Zigbee dimmers as Hue/SmartThings/HA compatible and sells a separate Matter model (SM323-MT) for HomeKit.
- Firmware reported by owners' accessories: 2.5.3 (no release notes found).
- Reported by HomeKit users in the HomeDevices community catalog (1 record, GB); not on Apple's accessory page. It reaches Apple Home through its maker's bridge or hub.
- Category from the product name ("switch").
