It looks like 2025 is shaping up to be the year of Thread + Zigbee compatibility combined in a single smart home device!
For years, Zigbee has been a reliable choice for smart home automation—offering low power consumption, strong mesh networking, and broad compatibility.
Thread is stepping up as the latest standard built specifically for the smart home, bringing low-latency, IPv6 support, and direct integration with Matter.
Rather than choosing one or the other, manufacturers are combining both Zigbee and Thread radios into a single device, giving users the best of both worlds:
✅ Zigbee’s well-established ecosystem & wide support
✅ Thread’s future-proof, fast, and IP-based communication
✅ Ideal whether you’re a smart home veteran or a complete newbie
This means better interoperability, devices being relevant for longer, and a smoother smart home experience. We’re already seeing brands adopt this approach—expect to see more dual-protocol devices launching throughout 2025!
