The Lightstrip comes in two different smart home flavors: Matter or HomeKit. 

You'll get a two-meter light strip capable of 16 million colors for$49.99. You can add a 40-inch extension to the strip for an additional$12.99.

As a refresher, Matter is a new connectivity standard that promises interoperability between the various smart home platforms created by tech companies such as Google, Samsung, Apple, and Amazon -- meaning you control a Matter product across all of those platforms and services, without having to worry about compatibility. 

As far as I can tell, Nanoleaf's Essentials line contains the first lighting products to launch with direct Matter support, forgoing the need for a bridge.

That said, you will need a Matter home hub that doubles as a border router in order to use the bulbs or strip lights. Apple'snew HomePod and the latestApple TV 4K Wi-Fi + Ethernet , or theGoogle Home Mini , Nest Mini , Nest Hub , and Nest Hub Max will all fill that role.

Still unsure about Matter and why it.. uh.. matters? Check out 's handy guide.
