Who makes the BEST Z-Wave dimmer? (Leviton, GE, Linear, Cooper)

Read carefully. Philips said existing bulbs will work, not existing bridges. There will be some kind of upgrade path for the bridges, details to be announced in September.

See the HomeKit discussion topics for details on the required hardware for HomeKit integration.

Apple HomeKit-enabled Smart Devices

This thread is for products which have already announced they will support Apple Homekit technology. Ecobee just announced itself to be the world’s first smart thermostat to support it. They are also offering 20$ off for now till June 21. Update: This may be confusing though. The newer ecobee3 (yet to be launched) which will hit the market will have the support. This will be very disappointing if the older ones do not have an upgrade path. BTW, this is what they have to say: “We are working on an upgrade path for current ecobee3 customers. In the meantime, your understanding is correct that due to hardware requirements from Apple, the current version of ecobee3 us not upgradeable to be compatible with HomeKit. Unfortunately it is not as simple as a firmware upgrade from our end.”
