The Complete Matter Device List
N/A
The Cync Direct Connect G25 Globe Bulb from Cync connects to your smart home over Wi-Fi. It joins your existing network directly, without a Thread Border Router or extra hub, and your Matter controller reaches it through your home router.
Wi-Fi Band
Most Matter Wi-Fi devices only connect on 2.4 GHz. If your router combines 2.4 and 5 GHz under one SSID, split them to avoid issues.
Same Network
Your phone, your controller and the device must be on the same network. Guest networks and separate VLANs can block Matter.
Power Use
Wi-Fi uses more power than Thread, so most Matter over Wi-Fi devices run on mains power instead of batteries.
Every Matter device needs a Matter controller, like a smart hub, display or speaker. See all Matter hubs →
The Cync Direct Connect G25 Globe Bulb is certified on Matter 1.3, released in May 2024. It added energy reporting for any device, plus EV chargers, water valves, leak and freeze sensors, ovens, cooktops, microwaves, extractor hoods and dryers. Scenes also became part of the standard.
Yes, but only a Matter controller from your platform, not a separate bridge. The Cync Direct Connect G25 Globe Bulb connects straight to your home network. The controller can be an Apple home hub, a Google Nest speaker, an Amazon Echo or Home Assistant.
Yes. Matter runs on your local network, so the Cync Direct Connect G25 Globe Bulb keeps working when your internet goes down. Remote access, voice assistants and some Cync cloud features may still need a working connection.
Yes. The Cync Direct Connect G25 Globe Bulb is Matter certified, so it works with Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Samsung SmartThings and Home Assistant, as long as the platform supports Light Bulb devices. Support for newer device types can differ per platform.
No. Any Matter hub can set up and control the Cync Direct Connect G25 Globe Bulb without the Cync app. Some advanced features may not be part of Matter yet, so settings like firmware updates or special modes can still require the Cync app.
Open your smart home app, choose to add a device and scan the Matter QR code on the Cync Direct Connect G25 Globe Bulb or its packaging. You can also type in the 11-digit Matter code instead. The app guides you through the rest. Keep the code safe, you need it again after a reset.
