Pros & Cons

Pros

This is the only product i have found that will work simply with wifi. The cync app isn't too bad to use and was able to get the switch hooked up to alexa pretty easily. Just link your newly created cync account with your alexa or google home.

They take up most of whatever switch box you have installed in your walls, with only a small amount of space behind.

The product is phenomenal and simple to install. This takes 10-15 minutes to install depending on experience. We now have over 20 devices installed and doing well.

Comes with the faceplate, but also works with standard decorator faceplates. You do need some sensors to test your lines for electrical activity. You should have them and even better an electrical tracing kit.



Cons

The app tries to mimic the more sleek savant app (which savant is fantastic) but cync fails, its slow, and so many bugs and glitches. The cync switch also flickers like crazy with pretty much any led bulb unless you use an adapter.

Tried to disable & enable. About 3 months in, it stops working. Immediately disconnected and returning asap.

Price


Works great and i wont complain to much for the price


My electrician installed it for me so for me it was a breeze to install but expensive


This was the cheapest option if your electrical system doesnt include a neutral wire

Packaging/appearance


Hall you saw was a half naked blur run out the room

Competitiveness


So the cync is one of the best deals in the category i bought another but be careful


I continue to use the gecync brand because it just works


Ge cync fits a specific need not available by other switch makers
