Shelly launches Gen4 Dimmer switch with Matter support

Shelly has expanded its Gen4 product line with a new Dimmer switch — a compact in‑wall (under‑plaster) module priced at €45.70. The device is designed for users who want reliable dimming plus wide compatibility, and it integrates Matter to simplify connections with various smart‑home ecosystems.

The Gen4 Dimmer targets installations where space and interoperability matter. As part of Shelly’s Gen4 family, it emphasizes ease of integration into existing wiring and supports modern smart‑home standards to work with many controllers and voice assistants (via Matter).

Key features

• Form factor: Under‑plaster/in‑wall dimmer module for discreet installation.
• Matter support: Enables cross‑platform compatibility and easier pairing with Matter‑capable hubs and apps.
• Price: Retail listed at €45.70.
• Gen4 lineup: Built to complement Shelly’s focus on broad compatibility and flexible smart‑home deployment.

Why it matters

Adding Matter support to compact modules makes it simpler for homeowners and integrators to standardize on an open smart‑home protocol. For those moving away from vendor‑locked ecosystems, a Matter‑enabled dimmer reduces friction when mixing devices from different brands.

If you’re planning an upgrade or new installation, check wiring requirements and compatibility with your existing switches, hubs and voice assistants. Shelly’s official pages will list detailed specs, supported use cases and setup instructions — consult them for carrier and regional availability.
