The new standard created for Interoperability; Matter smart home devices will be available soon all over the globe. There are a few devices that are Matter ready but most of them will be available in late 2022 or early 2023.
Matter is going to change the connectivity of IoT devices in a smart home. Till now, different hubs or switches were being used for devices connected through different standards, and bridging between them was rather complex. With matter, a device simply has to be a Matter device and a Matter controller will work the rest of the magic.
