Shelly gen4: WiFi and ZigBee at the same time

I’ve just seen Shelly announced new gen4 of their devices. If I get this right, each device in that lineup will support WiFi, ZigBee, Bluetooth, and Matter.

What’s especially surprising to me is that apparently once you enable ZigBee, you can still connect with the device through WiFi. I wonder if in practice this won’t be causing interference, but I guess they must have tested this.

I think it’s an interesting idea, I haven’t seen anyone else doing that so far.

If the price is not too much compared to gen3, I’ll probably get some. This could be a nice way to start building ZigBee network gradually.

Too bad they are not including Thread (Matter-over-Thread). The hardware should be capable of it, since it requires the same radio-transmitter as Zigbee.

It will be Matter-over-WiFi compatible, though.
