Tariff Smart Home from Megafon - For smart people and devices

Modern high-tech "Smart Home" systems have been around for several years. The systems are quite expensive and require expensive equipment and adjustments. In 2017, MegaFon was the first among the participants in the domestic high-tech market to create and launch a turnkey solution that does not require the participation of professionals for its installation - the Life Control system.

As part of its "Smart Home" Megafon offers equipment and a special tariff plan "MegaFon - Smart Home". In the article we will describe how the tariff works, what is offered as equipment and how much it all costs.

The Smart Home system from MegaFon is built around a central device (or hub), to which additional devices are connected that can work with it. The user can purchase a set or individual devices at his will and choice.

The system includes the following devices:

The Life Control smart home center combines all sensors and devices into a single system and interacts with the entire system. It can also function independently - as a camcorder or Wi-Fi router.
