June 19, 2023 – EZVIZ, a global leading smart home innovator, is thrilled to bring home the prestigious Red Dot 2023 Best of the Best Award, with its latest design – a groundbreaking smart home system kit. Called the “Ultimate Smart Home System Kit,” this winning product marks the first time EZVIZ to ever receive this “star jewel in the crown” of the esteemed Red Dot Awards. It reaffirms the company’s dedication to refreshing the smart home industry with new design ideas, inspiring a new era of connected living that prioritizes user experience, convenience, and energy efficiency.

The Red Dot Award, widely regarded as one of the world's most prestigious design accolades, sets stringent standards for evaluating products that exemplify extraordinary design excellence. This “Best of the Best Award” is given only to a select few products that truly push the boundaries of innovation, functionality, and aesthetics. According to data in previous years, only around 20 percent of the participants received a Red Dot Award, with an even more exclusive 1.5 percent earning the coveted Best of the Best distinction.

Setting a New Benchmark for Future-oriented Smart Home Systems

Born out of EZVIZ's Industrial Design Team's latest work in "re-defining the aesthetics of feature-heavy smart home products,” the winning kit is a result of the effective integration of advanced technology, user experience, and data security. Thoughtfully designed to build the “infrastructure” of a safe and comfortable smart home, the kit consists of an intelligent A8 Central Hub as its “brain,” a 12-inch SP12 Smart Display as its center, SW8 Custom Control Panels, and TS1 Interactive Home Cameras. All devices operate seamlessly through the included A8 hub, which serves as the central control unit for all connected devices, and allows remote, easy management for users. More importantly, the hub ensures the scalability of this “basic” kit, as it can connect with compatible devices added in the future to create a multi-device home ecosystem with limitless possibilities.

The bundled devices work together to ensure home security and provide home environment controls, which EZVIZ believes are the essential demands for nearly all families. Understanding privacy as the key deciding factor of a trustworthy smart home system, the company also prioritized data protection in its designs. For example, in addition to the strict data encryption that meets worldwide standards, the kit utilizes a LAN network instead of Wi-Fi to run all devices. In this way, it makes use of localized device communications to further safeguard user data.

The kit’s sleek, modern-home aesthetics are designed to blend harmoniously into any living space, fitting in easily with today’s interior design styles. All included devices feature a unified, minimalistic design with refined materials, without overstating their complex functionality. Along with the pleasing visuals comes a smooth, hassle-free user experience, as well. Users can use touch or voice control devices at home with the intuitive control panels, or remotely via the EZVIZ mobile app. In short, the kit is designed to readily upgrade any home with an intelligent, responsive, and worry-free environment.

“We are incredibly proud and honored to receive the Red Dot 2023 Best of the Best Award. This product is aimed to simplify human interaction with an advanced system, and enhance the user experience through thoughtful design,” said Weike Zhu, Chief Designer of EZVIZ's Industrial Design Department. “Although the kit is not market-available yet, winning the Red Dot's trophy award with our design idea and product samples has given us so much confidence in bringing it to millions of smart home lovers around the world in the near future."
