Aeotec Smart Home Hub (SmartThings Hub v3)

Compiled by SmartHomeWorkflow Research · Aeotec · Hubs & Controllers · ~$134.99 ($134.99 is the last price Aeotec's own store published for this hub, read 2026-08-07. Aeotec no longer sells it: we first found that on 2026-09-10 and checked again on 2026-09-15. The product page is gone from Aeotec's store and the hub appears nowhere in the store's own list of its 34 products. Treat $134.99 as a historical figure, not a price you can pay Aeotec today. If you find one for sale it will be a reseller's remaining stock at the reseller's price.)

⚠ Similar names, different products: Not the Aeotec Smart Home Hub 2 (model GP-AEOHUBV4), the newer hub that Samsung's US shop sells as a SmartThings hub today. This older hub is model GP-AEOHUBV3 and has a Z-Wave radio. Aeotec's radio list for the Hub 2 has no Z-Wave, so the two are not interchangeable if your home has Z-Wave devices.

Nothing on this hub is failing — a change is coming. From October 2026 Samsung starts charging $4.99 a month for the outside access that lets other software, such as Home Assistant, talk to SmartThings. Samsung says ordinary control from the SmartThings app is unaffected; what narrows is the openness this hub is often bought for. Samsung's October 2026 pricing change — it starts charging for the outside access that lets other software talk to SmartThings — makes the platform's long-term openness the real question about this hub, more than anything about the hardware.

Before you buy

What do you need to make it work?

No hub for the device alone

Choose a platform above for its connection. A hub can be optional for the device itself and required for a platform or automation.

No — this device is the hub. Aeotec's own tech specs for model GP-AEOHUBV3 describe it as a Z-Wave Plus, Zigbee, Thread and Matter gateway, and this record's provider block records all four of those roles. Nothing sits between it and the devices it controls.[12]

One device can provide more than one role. These are setup requirements, not a shopping list of separate purchases.

What could you do with this?

Put its functions to use.

Research, not hands-on testing

Start with a documented control or event. The selected connection shows what is confirmed for that platform.

We have not established a control or event to illustrate for this product. Check the connection and equipment information above.

A documented control or event is one part of a setup. It does not by itself establish a complete automation.

The functions, side by side

What can you use, and where?[13]

Connection details and setup sources
EcosystemSupportThe catch
Amazon AlexaWorksWorks with this ecosystem[4][34]Cloud-to-cloud linked skill, not local — Alexa control stops if the SmartThings cloud or account link is down. Alexa controls hub devices (lights, switches, thermostats, locks) and can trigger SmartThings manual Routines; motion/contact sensors are status-only.
Google HomeWorksWorks with this ecosystem[5][34]Cloud-to-cloud account link via the Google Home app, not local. Google only sees devices registered to the one SmartThings location you pick during linking, and sensor coverage is status-check only.
Apple HomeInconclusiveWe researched this and the evidence doesn't settle it — the catch explains why[6][38]Aeotec and Samsung connect this hub to Alexa and Google Home, but neither offers an official way to bring its devices into Apple Home, and Apple's list of supported bridges doesn't include it. Samsung lets you share devices that speak Matter themselves with other platforms, and those can join Apple Home without this hub, but it describes no way to do the same for the Zigbee and Z-Wave devices the hub runs. Community-built bridges exist, made and supported by their users rather than by any of these companies, so we can't call this a yes or a no.
SmartThingsWorksWorks with this ecosystem[7]This IS the SmartThings hub: a Samsung-listed Matter controller and Thread border router, on a platform that added Matter 1.5 (camera) support rolling out from January 2026. It cannot bridge its own Zigbee/Z-Wave devices out to other Matter ecosystems.
Home AssistantPartialPartial support — see the catch[8][33]The official integration runs through Samsung's servers rather than over your own network, and it needs a Samsung account. Home Assistant's own documentation warns that free outside access to SmartThings is being phased out from October 2026: to keep this working you will either pay Samsung's $4.99/mo Personal Plan, or move your Zigbee and Z-Wave devices off this hub before then.

? Inconclusive means we researched that ecosystem and the evidence doesn’t settle it — the catch says why, and the sources are listed below. It is a statement about the available evidence, never a verdict on the product. A Setup Check researches your exact setup where the official sources don’t answer.

Plans and ongoing costs[23][35]

✓ Works without a subscription: Yes.

Vendor account required: Not established — we have not sourced this yet.

No plan is needed to use this hub. Samsung is introducing a $4.99 a month plan in October 2026, but it is aimed at people who connect the hub to something outside the SmartThings app — custom dashboards, personal scripts, and third-party platforms, Home Assistant among them. Samsung says in the same announcement that the change does not affect people using the SmartThings app with certified devices, which is how most owners use this hub. So: free to use as sold, and a cost only if you wire it into something else. That distinction is what the service note on this record is about.

Maintenance and offline use

Who it's for

For buyers who want Zigbee, Z-Wave, Thread, and Matter radios together in one mainstream hub.

  20. [20] A fresh check of the source this record cites for price and market state. (1) https://store.aeotec.com/products/smart-home-hub-zwa030 no longer leads to this product: the store's own listing data for that address is gone, and the address now shows a page whose products are Aeotec's Door/Window Sensor 8 and Water Sensor 7. (2) A DIFFERENTLY-BUILT CHECK: Aeotec's own store product list, asked for up to 250 items, returns 34 products and not one of them is this hub or any hub — the full list is water, door, tri and energy sensors, Z-Wave and Zigbee sticks, switches, shutters, sirens and range extenders. (3) A CONTROL WE KNEW SHOULD SUCCEED, so the two empty results are not a broken instrument: the same store data for a product that IS in that list (Water Sensor 7, address water-sensor-7-zwa018) comes back with title 'Water Sensor 7', price $34.99, available true. The instrument works and the hub is absent from it. The record's market state moves from 'current' to 'ended' on that basis, and the $134.99 recorded 2026-08-07 becomes a historical figure. This says nothing about whether the hub still functions or is still supported — that is the service side, which is unchanged and separately noted. — Read on the maker's own site, verified 2026-09-10

Verbatim on who is NOT affected, which is the sentence that keeps this record's subscription status at 'none': 'To note, this update does not affect the millions of SmartThings users who use the SmartThings App with thousands of WWST partner devices.' Verbatim on timing: 'We are targeting availability for the new commercial tiers and personal plan offering in October 2026', followed by 'Please note: Your current API usage will not be interrupted' — so the date is a target Samsung states, not one we inferred. The post also enumerates what the paid developer tiers carry (rate limits, Matter, cloud-to-cloud, Zigbee and Z-Wave access, Samsung device integration), which is what makes the personal plan the relevant one for a household rather than the commercial tiers. On whether the hub works without the internet, this announcement speaks only to the paid-access change above; this record still says we do not know, for the reason on its own entry. LIFECYCLE.SERVICE IS CLAIMED HERE BECAUSE THIS POST IS THE AXIS'S SOURCE, not an adjacent one: the 'degraded' state on this record means an announced subtractive change, and this announcement is the change. Re-read in full 2026-09-12, every line the record rests on was still present and unrevised — the $4.99 personal plan, the October 2026 target, 'Free access will remain available through Q3', and 'We will not begin applying the new usage limits or phasing out free access until October 2026'.

That is the same instrument and the same result as the 2026-09-10 read, so the 'Aeotec no longer sells it' statement in the price note and the lifecycle.market axis both still stand.

[25] Attempted 2026-09-12 while Samsung's developer-access announcement, Samsung's support answer ANS10006871 and Aeotec's catalogue feed were open. localOperation stays unknown as a FIELD: this hub plainly runs some automations on the hub itself, but none of the three pages open that day says which, and the one that discusses the platform's future is about developer access rather than about where automations run. Writing 'partial' would be a reasonable guess, and a guess is what this axis is for refusing. wifiBands, powerSource, accountRequired and installEffort stay unknown for the plainer reason: the page that carried this hub's specifications was Aeotec's own product page, and that page is gone — its absence is re-tested on the entry beside this one. Nothing reachable today publishes them, and the correct state for a fact whose source has been withdrawn is unknown, not a figure carried forward from memory., verified 2026-09-12
  26. [26] Re-verification sweep, 2026-09-12. The two axes our freshness list flagged — subscription and maintenance — were the last two still resting on a July 2026 sweep that named no document. Both were re-read against Samsung's own announcement that day and both HELD: subscription stays 'none' with core function full, and the October 2026 date and $4.99 figure in the maintenance note are quoted from Samsung rather than paraphrased. The legacy entry is now empty of claims and retired. Also re-tested and holding: the hub's absence from Aeotec's own 34-product catalogue feed. NOT advanced, and the reason is the same one this record has carried since 2026-09-01: the page that established price, protocols, provides, hubRequired and capabilities is gone from Aeotec's store, so those stamps keep their original dates.
