SwitchBot’s new Hub 2 brings more than just Matter to its Bluetooth devices

SwitchBot started out with a simple premise. Instead of creating devices with smarts built-in and thus competing with all the greatest smart home products out there, the company focused on making appliances and buttons that already exist in your house smart, with its button-pressing robot lending the company its name. SwitchBot has since expanded into other categories and offers a whole ecosystem. During CES 2023, the company announced the new SwitchBot Hub 2, which adds another dimension to its products: Matter support.
