Has anyone in the US got one of these yet? They replace light switches and can control Sonos amongst other things. UK release is hoped for 2018.

    Strange that no-one om the forum seems to have bought one.

    Its expensive though, why not just get a cheap iPad and wall mount it? Then you have every feature, plus you avoid the Savaan problem of relying on poor support from a third party.

    We are a smart home integrator in Miami Florida and we recently started installing these in our customers' homes. The product is good but needs some software and hardware refinements. It is a little pricey but not outrageous. I am a dealer, so aside from installing them for customers I have three of them in my home and they work pretty well. The sonos integration is pretty good but their is no grouping feature. In fact if you have a group already existing and then you start playing in one room using a brilliant control touch screen, it breaks the group automatically and starts playing in one room only. So to regroup you will have to open your sonos app. If you just tell alexa to play something but dont specify a room it will play over the existing group. So you can work with it. it needs some software help though.

    I’ve got one in the mail.

    Will get it installed and setup next week.

    Will give some input then.

    These just seem much easier to work with. I'm using a Vizio tablet at the moment, if I could wall mount that it would be ideal but wouldn't know where to start. Does anyone make a Qi wall bracket/holder?
