HomeKit Weekly: The Amazon Basics Matter plug delivers Apple Home support for under $10

Amazon Basics has released a compact Matter smart plug priced under $10.

It works directly with Apple Home through a Matter home hub such as HomePod mini or Apple TV 4K.

The plug is small and affordable, making it an easy upgrade for Apple Home automation.

It uses 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi rather than Thread, but still broadens low-cost smart home options.
