Gira X1 comparison to Thinka

Smart home functionalities for KNX compared

In order to make your building or home automation system smart, you need smart home add-on's. A popular one is Gira X1. We love Gira for its quality products, but are they up to standard yet when it comes to making a KNX home, a smart home? KNX is great in itself, reliable and extensive. It integrates many different devices from a large number of vendors.

But it KNX is lacking in smart home integration.

You can not control it from your phone
You can not access it away from your home
It is very hard to create your own scenes without ETS programming
It does not have any automations; it just does not know when the sun goes down to close your curtains
It does not offer voice control

It's just not that smart...
‍

That's where smart home add-on's like Gira X1 come in.

Gira X1 offers some smart home integration to your KNX server and an app to control it. And with the Gira S1 added you can access it away from home. You can use the app on your phone and tablet. Or use it on a Gira G1 tablet.

Thinka offers a smart home integration and can do much more.

Let's compare Gira X1 and Thinka more in detail.
