Looks similar in function to the ikea remote. You should buy this and post a review here😀
Yeah, looks similar to the Ikea remote but doesn’t need a separate hub so would be better for me if it’s good. I won’t be able to get the EZB for a while, but will be going to Ikea soon so any feedback from those who’ve used the EZB would be useful.

The ikea hub is $70, and each remote is $18. The EZB is $55. So any cost savings is gone if you need 2 remotes. EZB is using wifi, which is the reason it doesn’t need a hub and also why you’ll be recharging that battery often. The ikea is using a much lower power protocol, not sure which, and operates on normal AAA batteries. Should go a long time without a recharge.
Good point, although I like the look of the volume knob on the EZB, and would really only need one for now. Ikea is £60 + £19 per remote, EZB is £55 in UK, so similar issue there if I decide to add more later. Thanks

I forgot that ikea changed the remote, I have round first gen ikea symfonisk remotes and ezb looks similar. The ikea stuff runs on Zigbee IIRC, if you already have a smart home hub in your home that has zigbee the symfonisk remotes wight work with it just FYI.
