Brilliant Smart Home Control (2-Switch Panel) — Alexa Built-In & Compatible with Ring, Sonos, Hue, Google Nest, Wemo, SmartThings, Apple HomeKit — In-Wall Touchscreen Control for Lights, Music, & More

Recently I made the decision to upgrade my home to be more "smart". After researching the best way to do that, I purchased the Brilliant Smart Home Control 2 switch panel for my living room. The unit arrived quickly and I found installation to be very straightforward. I connected it to Alexa, a smart thermostat and some smart plugs. It is very convenient to have a hard wired switch that can control the lights, etc. but also because it can control other systems around the house via voice or the user friendly touch panel.The video feature is very useful to me, as my teenage daughter is non verbal and has special needs. I can drop in and watch her while I am in my office or in the garage if I need to quickly check on her. Another great feature that helps her is the ability to communicate with the house to control the lights and fan using her alternative communication device (her "talker") by asking Alexa to do that for her.I also really appreciate that the Brilliant unit connects to the Honeywell T9 thermostat I purchased. We are able to control the temperature much better now from the living room without having to get up. I will be looking to connect it to other smart home features (locks, etc.) in the future. I highly recommend the Brilliant Smart Home Control!

I wanted a simple way to control to my smart home, from the wall and not be tethered to my phone to do it (when I come home, I put my phone away). Frustrated, late last year, I purchased an iPad to control the second level of my home - it's not ideal and it must be charged. After a brief Google search, I came across this product - read a couple reviews and thought to myself, "well it seems to be decent, let's try it"...BLOWN AWAY, this product is amazing and does EXACTLY what I need. I knew what I wanted, and it delivered. The setup was simple and easier than the smart light switches in my home to install. Customer support was even amazing (I reached out to them thinking I had a bad unit - but the update process just takes a really long time - pro tip!).This is the tech product of the year for me (I buy a lot of tech gadgets). I'm amazed by its ease of use, functionality, simplicity, thoughtful design and just how beautiful it is. As a result of this purchase, I've purchased six more Sonos speakers to fill my living space.Overall, great product and I'm still amazed at the value of this product.

This is a great piece of tech. The screen and controls are great. Albeit totally a personal preference, I really like the touch capacitor switch controls.Setting things up takes time but was pretty straightforward. While some reviewers have complained about limited compatibility, I am impressed and fully covered: SONOS, Hue lights, August front door lock, Ring doorbell, TP Link/Kasa switches. My only devices not compatible were the garage door MyQ and Ring Security.The only complaints I have are: the phone App is not a full replica of the wall device. So some of the setup must be done at the wall. And while the camera and Smart Assistant are cool features I don’t find them useful personally: the camera just because of my usage, the assistant because it’s a bit quiet and I prefer the Echo Dot in the same room instead.

The install and set up was very easy and the system works very well. I have previously had a bunch of wifi lightbulbs controlled by Alexa but am switching over everything to Apple Homekit. It is interesting that you can actually have BOTH Alexa and Siri activated at the same time, since the hub has Alexa built in, it will control all the lightbulbs I currently have while I am in the process of switching all the light switches to Brilliant and still control the new Brilliant switches with Siri as well. Though you do have to have the separate Apple Homekit hub (iPad, Apple TV or Homekit speaker) to use Siri.I also got one single motion activated switch for the hall bath and one plug and the set up for those was pretty easy as well. I already had an Ikea Symfonisk Sonos speaker and that paired with Brilliant. It is nice to come downstairs in the morning with the kitchen light on, the coffee brewed and the music on.Yes, all of the plugs and switches are more pricey that others, but I have had limited success using others, and these are worked together seamlessly!I cant wait to outfit the rest of the house with Brilliant products.Oh, a few suggestions for Brilliant. If we could get a 2 outlet plug, if you could start connecting with ADT security cameras and doorbells, that would be great.
