When it comes to smart home tech cost-cutting it's all about simplifying the small-but-many pieces. That's where RF 433 Mhz comes in. Why should I pay $40+ for a zigbee/z-wave/smart-things/wifi-enabled door sensor when I can get a $35 RF Sonoff bridge and get each sensor for around $4-$8 from china. So you can save a lot of money by using that tactic with door sensors/window sensors/PIR Sensors/Alarm systems/Sirens/Switches etc. because those will add up massively. You can't use that for TV/Speakers/Cameras ofc but you can bring everything together onto home assistant. As far as I'm concerned, only the community can decide which protocol will win and these big techs should just put their weight behind a protocol built with the community instead of closed-door-consensus. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfSbIFIJPuc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfSbIFIJPuc https://www.home-assistant.io/components/ https://www.home-assistant.io/components/
