                  Logitech's new Pop Home Switch is a deceptively simple looking device — it's little more than a big white button — that interfaces with a number of popular home automation systems to set up lighting and audio scenes in your home. For example, provided you have the compatible systems, a single press of a Pop button could adjust the lights, turn on the TV and soundbar, and draw the blinds to get your home ready for movie night. Or, a single press of a button on a bedside table can turn off all the lights in your home and make sure the doors are locked before you go to bed. Additional double-press and press-and-hold gestures can also be set up and assigned to other functions. Sadly, it's not HomeKit-capable, which may limit its usefulness in certain environments, but Logitech has done a good job of partnering with a number of major home automation providers. Pop is compatible with Philips Hue, Lutron Caséta, Sonos, the August Smart Lock, and of course, Logitech's own Harmony system. {/exp:char_limit}
