Hi Alex, Do you know if SwitchBot still sell the rainbow version of the hub ? Seem like is not available on their website. In addition, for the Hub Mini does it comes with the UK/SG plug or we need to use an adapter ? Didn't see any option to choose UK/SG Plug on their website.
Is it good for a morning scene/routine with that sounds? Isnât it annoying?
Hi Alex, just consider buying the aqara track. Just wonder since you buy it from Taobao, do you need to set the xiaomi home region to China?
like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, czcams.com/users/postUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....
Hello Alex! Started watching your videos three months ago and it's been really helpful as I'll be moving into my new home soon! You've inspired me to automate things in my new home and may you continue to come up with such informative videos :). The black SwitchBot Curtain would be a great addition to my new home!
hi denise, thanks for the support!
Agree! Smart solution isn't just about turning on/off with a remote or controlling with voice etc. Automations is what makes it smart. Great video đđœ
I really love what your doing. Giving us the variety of option! It really helped me to kick start my automation and gadget to purchase.
I HAD NO IDEA that such automation technology exists!!! I always found it super fascinating when I stay at hotels with such curtains! Would really love the white version! Im so thankful I found a Singaporean tech review channel as you always talk about familiar and accessible brands! Keep up the good work!

Never really thought about automating the curtains but this video inspired some new ideas! would love the black one to get started on this journey!
Currently renovating my new place and always excited to see your CZcams uploads on things you're recommending for home gadgets/taobao buys. Would love to have any of the curtain bots!!
Stumbled upon your channel while looking for the perfect smart curtains for my boyfriendâs room reno. Your videos are super informative and bite-sized. Would love to get the black switchbot for the automation so we both stop oversleeping đ Thank you!
Niceee, your bf will love smart curtains
Thank you for starting this channel. Now I know how to recreate my house to be smart all by myself. Thanks for sharing the tips and your reviews for all the products. Hope to see some videos of you trying to recreate some peopleâs room/house into smart, to see from scratch how it is done. Thank you! My curtain rod is white, so white matches white đ€đ»
That's actually a very interesting video suggestion!
Would really love the white version! As a young Singaporean, I am so thankful I found your tech review channel! Taught me so many things about owning a house hahaha! Wish you more subscribers for the year 2021!! :)
Thanks for your recommendation. Didn't something like that exist. Seem easy to set up and flexible to move around.
Hey Alex! Your videos are always so informative. I appreciate your honest opinion and the links you shared in your description box. It allows the smart home community in Singapore to grow as I donât see many CZcamsrs providing the same level of content and support you give to your viewers. I canât wait to create my own smart home once I get my keys :) :) hehe! keep it up!
yeah feels good to promote and increase awareness of the smart home tech! It's a fun and addictive journey!
Thanks for giving us tips on how to make a smart home! I would love either the black or the white one! Both are fine :)
I am so motivated to get my new house smart after watching your videos!
I would like to have the white to get me started:)

Your suggestion and advise are always spot on! I already have the switchbot and i changed my device on the rod to the 3rd curtain hook and now the curtain are now fully closed! Thanks Alex! Wouldnt mind having another one for my guest room and white one should fit just right! đŹ

I would really love to get the white color SwitchBot set.
Great video on the comparison between Aqara and Switch Bot. Looking forward for your next video. Love to have the black one đ
I was looking around for switchbot curtain the other day, just nice you show us . Great video again.
good timing!
Really appreciate all your videos. As I'm learning more about home automation I'm learning more that I don't really care for it, probably won't be automating anything in my future house...
Great addition to the smart home, good way to naturally wake up to the sunshine. White will be good to match IKEA white rod.
Hi Alex! Thanks for the curtain box! This will fully sync with my google bot at home and works well for my house as we do have alot of sun coming in. Would love to have the black one!
Love the white ones! Would probably match with my white curtains. Now it's time to be able to set a timer to wake me up in the morning slowly by opening my curtains. NO MORE RUSHING TO GET READY FOR WORK!
great content Alex! And thanks, u've got me started with the idea of automating my future home, steam mop and even tankless water. it's great to see the comparisons on useful gadgets/products. hope to see more such great content!
Yup simplify your time at home especially during this period where everyone is spending so much time at home
Hi Alex! Thank you so much for creating smart home content! Truly useful informative for many new home owners! Been following your smart home guide content. So please keep it up! Recently been thinking to install smart curtain in my house. Hence, I would really hope to have a smart curtain set of any colour from you! Once again. Deeply appreciated your work!
Do get it even if you didn't win the giveaway!
Love to start my smart home journey after watching your video, loving the black Switchbot! Would hope to have it ~
Moving into my new house soon and am inspired by your set up!! Would love the black version!!
Thank you for another great video! Am moving to my new place next week and motorised curtains are a must-get for me as I currently have to get up in the night just to open my curtains for more ventilation, only to have to close them at 6am again when the morning sun comes up! I would love to have a set, any colour would be great! Thank you!
Love your idea of using the automation to close the curtain when you are preparing to watch movie! I could imagine using one of these to automatically close the curtains before watching a movie as well haha! Thanks for all the tips and ideas and also this giveaway! Both the white and black looks great!
add in a nice RGB LED strip behind the tv will look awesome too
Hi Alex, I have watched a couple of your video and have decided to subscribe on your channel . Because of your detailed information on how to turn your home into a smart home. Thank you for creating such video.
Thanks for introducing this amazing product! Keep producing these amazing home videos! âșïžđđ»

I've been following your videos and upgrading my home appliances too! The black ones would look great to complete my room and a sweet birthday present to me this month! đ
Happy bday in advance first!
thank you for this comparison! definitely like a white one to compliment my grey/white room.
This is awesome! Iâm doing some home Reno now, and this video is just opening up my mind on the possibilities. Iâm now looking at curtains specifically so thanks!
smart curtain for your new house will be nice!
@@AlexTeo yeah it sure would! I found a lot of good stuff on this channel, esp coz Iâm a newbie in these smart stuff and Taobao.
I have this 3.5m window in living room, so getting it automated would truly be quite awesome!
Thanks for sharing this video on automated curtain. Itâs really amazing to use technology in our daily lifestyle. Planning to build a smart home for my new house, I would like to have the white one and give it a try on my new house curtain.
Thanks Alex! your videos really help us alot in building our smart home. We will love to have the white one for our new home :)
Another fantastic video Alex.
I could pair it with a routine on google app so I can wake up with uplifting music to start my day!
Hi Alex! Thanks for the recommendation! This is so convenient and we would really want to get one for our new house! Would love to have the white one (:
While checking home automation CZcams recommended ur channel to me. Informative! I would like to have black one!
thanks to youtube algorithm haha
Thanks will like to have the white one. Have been watching your videos recently to embark my journey to a smart home. Really helpful!
Hi Alex, great video again on showing us the comparison between the different types of smart curtains. For a beginner like me, your videos had tremendously helped me in starting off my smart home journey for my new home. Love it how you provide us your honest reviews on the products you've shown in your channel. Can't wait for your next upload man :) Anyways Im eye-ing on the white SwitchBot curtain, would love to show it off to my family during this coming Chinese New Year :P
Many thanks again Alex!
nice! stay tune for next week's video announcement
Hi Alex, thanks a lot for this instructional video! It's clear and easy to follow and really gives new bto owners like myself a guide to building a smart home. Big fan of all of your vids! Personally, I'd prefer SwitchBot over Aqara due to its portability. If we were to move into a new place in the future, there will be no hassle in bringing it over! I have no particular preference for the colour, any one works for me. Anyway, awesome work as always! Keep doing what you do. Looking forward to your new vids. Cheers! đ
thanks for the support man!
Thanks Alex for the tips on smart curtains. Hope i could get one of it as i love how switchbot products are flexible amd easy to setup.
Very useful tips, thanks for sharing! I donât have any smart device in my home right now, so the smart bot will be a great start. Will love the white one :)
Great videos. Have been wondering how this motorised curtains works... Thanks Alex to solve my puzzle. They could have more colours to chose from but guess white stay closest to most white walls. I prefer white. Have already SAVED this video to watch again once I got hands on to SWITCHBOT.
probably just mass production of white and black to keep the price down
Nice video as always. I will go for the white one since most of the houses have white walls and thus, more hidden!
Wow nice! Didn't know switchbot has this smart curtain solution. Would love to have white, but black is fine too!
Such great video contents! Never seen anyone in my social circle using smart curtains and I hope to be the 1st one to try it out and recommend to them :) The white switchbot would be nice!
Very informative video once again, Alex! Canât wait for my new BTO to come sooner so I can start experiencing smart home on my own! Hope to win the Black version as it looks so sleek! Thank you! đ€
Hi Alex! My fiancé and I are so happy to have found your channel a few months back. We expect to receive our keys to our BTO this year and have been inspired by you to make it into a smart home. We hope to be able to win the white one!
sorry Fion! giveaway winners have been announced, but more giveaway videos coming in the future
Found your videos about home renovation and your videos got me thinking about smart home integration too! Thank you so much for the videos and I've gotten a few Aqara switches and lights to test it out at my parents house. Would love the white SwitchBot.
niceee, update me how the aqara integrations go
Never knew I would need a smart curtain! Would love the black version!!!
definitely one of my fave smart home products!
would love to see your channel grow, keep up the good job Alex!
thanks man!
Love the black one. Thank you for the info and the home tour from previous videos.
Thanks for the support as well!
Your content is great for ppl like me who is looking to integrate smart home systems in my future home. Would be excited to get the White Switchbot.
Never know that to automate curtains would be that simple...thanks for sharing and white colour would be fine!đ
yup within minutes
white 1 will match my study room well. Keep the video coming
Love your home tips, would love the black version!
Great recommendations! Keep it up on your content. Trying my luck now, lol!
I really like your videos. It gives me so much idea for my renovation! Cant wait to try out these ideas on my new house! I'm leaning more towards Aqara because it looks better aesthetically but switchbots is definitely a simpler and more direct way of "smartifying" what you currently have. I personally would like to try them on my parents home. Both colours look great but the white ones would be a better match.
glad the videos give you some good ideas! both solutions have their pros and cons
Thanks so much for your videos. You've really helped put a local context to the use of these smart gadgets. I'd love the black switchbot for my home theater room! cheers!
yeah the local context for smart home tech is very important
Never know I can install automobile curtain myself instead of purchasing from retail shop which is not cheap. Thank you so much for sharing which I learn a lot. Hope to see more of your video to enlighten me. Will be very happy if can get the white one to start with.
yeah no idea why they charging so much
Informative video indeed, been looking around for a smart curtain. I choose the white! Fits my white theme house perfectly!
Good and useful information on the options available to automate my curtains.. would love to get my hands on the switchbot!
Always been searching for a video on automating the curtains and this video! really help me to understand more and in-depth! Hope to win the white one to get started of this journey!
Awesome video that shows up just at the right time when I'm planning my curtains setup! The noise comparison is super helpful! Black would work better for me but white also works since I'll have black rod and white-ish curtains.
white-ish curtains v easy get dirty and yellowish, think twice haha
love your videos, automation made easier with your explanation! would love the white version for my upcoming resale flat
Very cool stuff once again Alex, thanks for the great content. Would love to get switchbot in black!
As always, great reference video to automate my upcoming BTO! Would love the black version. đ
