No such thing

Godai plox

No one using homekit? Ok gua alone, but so far ok la, very responsive, can put many camera also

im using smartthings for automation.

and alexa for voice assistant.

Sonoff zigbee bridge ?

It is supported. Why you say not supported?

You can buy Tuya but the automation and integration capabilities is not as great as Home Assistant.
Tuya is cloud based also.

That's not what I meant.

I mean a lot of device sold in Malaysia not supported with cheap price

Tuya is cheaper

Have you done it?

Coz I see the market availability is very bad

Just use homeassistant to integrate all with any voice assistant.
The best ones are always the devices that don't require cloud and fully local
Look what happened to certain brand that just died making their devices useless

For tuya, easier now with cloudcutter, no need to do teardown.
Just install firmware via ota

All device supported or just few?

Got list here

https://openbekeniot.github.io/webapp/devicesList.html

For the wall switch, lights, remote already got

But tuya has started patching firmware, so better don't update your firmware

That's the problem

Very troublesome

I think just use Tuya la

Save your headache

More headache with the official tuya integration on HA, randomly go offline and stuff
switched to custom firmware and no more issues since

Easier way you just grab the zigbee stuff, and not wifi version

All my stuff is zigbee

WiFi is rubbish

No headache if no HA

Wish IKEA would bring the IKEA smart home DIRIGERA hub officially into the Malaysian market.

stick with 1 ecosystem then less headache. u either all xiaomi or all apple or all huawei etc.

so far no problem utilizing home system from xiaomi. region in china. but their cctv i bought later is global version so i use dual apps on my phone and set that region to msia

The best of the best!

Yes I have home assistant running zigbee and wifi based devices.
Mostly sonoff, some tuya, some ikea zigbee switches, running ZHA and Zigbee2mqtt.

Tuya can also work but it is cloud based so I chose to use Sonoff and ewelink compatible devices instead.


I don't understand what you mean by market availability cause shopee have tonnes of Sonoff products.

Once you have home assistant you can do more advance stuff like facial recognition and all.
