Eve adds a Matter over Thread dimmer switch.

The smart home company that’s all in on the new wireless protocol has announced its much-anticipated dimmer switch.

The hardwired switch will ship in mid-March for $49.95 and works with single-pole and 3-way configurations. Matter over Thread support means it works with Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa, and Samsung SmartThings over a local mesh network, but requires a Thread border router.

<em>The Eve Dimmer Switch has a hybrid touch button/rocker dimmer design for on-device dimming and an on/off function.</em>
<em>The switch can pair directly to your smart home platform app as well as the Eve app, which adds more customization options, including setting a preferred brightness level, LED status settings, and on-device scheduling.</em>
<em>The new dimmer switch does require a neutral wire</em>.
