New Smartthings V4 released, have you heard about it? I came across a post in Korea and have been following the new release of Samsung Smartthings version 4, sold by Samsung itself. Is it true? Has anyone seen this before? [스마트싱스 V4허브 리뷰, 처음부터 끝까지]

[image] Andreas_Roedl: Edit: just checked the prices of Aeotec products on amazon.uk and I’m shocked. £50 for the camera that costs 25 € in Germany, for example. Yeah, its a big difference , just discovered amazon.de won’t ship to me for the hub but will for an aeotec button :roll_eyes:. Als…
