“The Sonoff ZB Bridge-P is a solid upgrade from the original Zigbee Bridge, doubling device support to 128 and using the reliable EFR32 CC2652 chip. Good for Home Assistant + Zigbee2MQTT users who want local control. Mediocre accessories (micro USB cable) and pairing complexity hold it back slightly.”
