In this video, we review Soma's smart shades: the Smart Shades 2 and Soma Tilt 2, as well as the Soma Connect. These are retrofit devices that turn your existing blinds into smart blinds and work with both roller blinds and Venetian/tilt blinds. They also work with Google Home, Alexa and Home Assistant. But are they better than the Aqara blind driver we reviewed previously? And how well do they work?
