SwitchBot Tease More Products at IFA 2024

Following on from recent announcement from SwitchBot for their new Smart Humidifier, the company are unveiling yet more smart goodies in the form of not one, but two air purifiers, modular roller shade blinds, and (yet another) option related to their K10+ Pro robot vacuum.

By far the most interesting for me, are the two air purifiers. The model above not only operates as a air purifier to remove hair, dust and particulate matter (PM10, PM2.5) from your room, but it also comes with a very interesting ambient light that appears as though it’s floating above the purifier itself. The ambient light is capable of producing colour, and supposedly changes to specific colour depending on the air quality in the room it’s located in. The top of the light acts as a sort of night stand (assuming it’s placed next to a bed), so it can serve more than just a purifier and mood light.

If you want to take things up a notch, the other purifier touted is essentially the same in terms of both the purifier and mood light, but the top of the lamp features a larger and wider table top, with a wood finish. Not only that, but it also has a Qi charger built in. The charger itself is the Qi standard, so although you’ll get 15w for Android phones, iPhones are restricted to 7.5w, with Apple approved chargers able to reach 15w.

Both purifiers offer Hepa 13 filtration, which also includes a carbon filter for odours and VOCs. It also comes with a built-in PM2.5 sensor, although the company are also offering the option to buy the purifier with their recently announced Meter Pro or Meter Pro (Co2 monitor) sensors.

Both air purifiers will be exposed to Matter via the company’s hubs in a future update.

Fresh off the back of their recently released K10+ Pro (video HERE), SwitchBot has now announced the K10+ Pro Combo! This is essentially the K10+ Pro robot vacuum, with a larger/taller base station and a more or less traditional hand held vacuum that wouldn’t look out of place in a Dyson showroom. Both the K10+ Pro and the handheld vacuum make use of the base station, but emptying the contents of the dust boxes via separate portals.

The hand-held vacuum comes with a variety of fittings that allows you to clean various areas, from the back of sofas, to tight corners, and even the interior of your car. both this and the K10+ Pro have built in batteries of course. Whilst the K10+ Pro is exposed to Matter via its association with the company’s Matter bridges, it’s not clear if the hand held vacuum will also be exposed to Matter, or indeed be exposed separately.

SwitchBot’s Roller Shade is the world’s first adjustable and fabric-replaceable smart roller blind. Its width adjusts from 0.5m to 1.85m or 22.8″ to 72.8″, which will hopefully provide a precise fit for most windows. The fabric can be easily replaced to match any décor, with options such as 100% blackout for privacy protection. In addition to remote control, the Roller Blind supports automation scenes and integrates with major smart home platforms through Matter (via SwitchBot Matter-compatible Hubs), offering a smart, hassle-free solution for everyone.
