Apartment-friendly control panels should be compact, wireless-compatible, and easy to install:

Ideal Features for Apartments:

• Small form factor (e.g., 5.5" or 8" screens)

• Wi-Fi and Bluetooth support

• Support for popular ecosystems (Alexa, Google Home, Matter)

• Minimal wall modification (optional 86-type box)

Top Choices:

• Portworld YC-SM55P – 5.5-inch compact Android panel with PoE and Wi-Fi.

• Brilliant Panel – Great for renters with built-in voice and lighting control.

• Tuya-Compatible Panels – Affordable and cloud-friendly, but limited local control.
