abstract = "This paper analyzes Google Home, Apple HomeKit, Samsung SmartThings, and Amazon Alexa platforms, focusing on their integration with the Matter protocol. Matter is a connectivity standard developed by the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA) for the smart-home industry. By examining key features and qualitative metrics, this study aims to provide valuable insights for consumers and industry professionals in making informed decisions about smart-home devices. We conducted (from May to August 2024) a comparative analysis to explore how Google Home Nest, Apple HomePod Mini, Samsung SmartThings station, and Amazon Echo Dot platforms leverage the power of Matter to provide seamless and integrated smart-home experiences.",
