What customers say
The Samsung SmartThings Hub (3rd Generation) offers impressive device compatibility, integrating a wide range of Zigbee, Z-Wave, and Wi-Fi products. Its ability to act as a central smart home controller is a major draw. Local processing for some routines enhances reliability, ensuring automations function even without internet. While initial setup is generally easy and community support is helpful, some users experience reliability issues. Devices can occasionally disconnect, and routines may not always execute as expected. The transition to the new app has also presented challenges for some. Despite these occasional hiccups, for those who master its features, the hub provides a robust platform for smart home control and automation.
