So far complete success
Once installed and firmware upgraded it has done everything I've asked of it. The "buttons" for the two built-in switches have a very nice tactile feedback when pressed. It integrated with Alex seamlessly and takes/executes Alex commands on its own. It also looks really nice in place which, while not totally necessary, is a great bonus.It was easy to install as I've installed a lot of switches in my life. Having said that the instructions could be clearer with better diagrams. There was only one very general diagram that wasn't helpful.

Very well made product, with some drawbacks
If you have a houseful of Tuya/SmartLife products (and not much else), this is like a (permanently mounted, in an electrical box in the wall) publicly accessible - high quality Visual - 'phone-app' of your Tuya system. Plus - it has Alexa! (Which cross-references to a ton of other systems.) I got this as an easy interface for Others in the household who are baffled by techie stuff and have no interest in learning, yet want to control a few lights etc that affect them. This fills that bill beautifully, as long as you're content using Alexa for almost everything, but the lovely display is limited to Tuya devices only.In my situation, where I mostly have Tuya/SL outlets and bulbs (not much in terms of variety in my system), this doesn't display output from other systems I would like to 'see', like camera feeds, state of O/C sensors, lock status, changing security mode etc etc. It only shows Tuya devices.Being a fully Alexa-enabled device, you can still access all your other systems by voice (once you cross them into Alexa, a separate app), but you can't "see" them on the control panel (like you can with the Alexa Hub. "Hub" in Alexa-ese means "control panel" in Moes-ese.)The other problem I had with this control panel is it is remarkably lacking in documentation. You get a user guide about installation and initial setup, but nothing about actually using the device. It makes a mention of how to add Tuya devices to Alexa, but none of the details to understand what this system, even limited to Tuya, can do - which is a Lot! I had a bunch of back and forth with the vendor and finally got the Settings screen explained (with it's dozen icons and myriad sub settings), but what and how to do things with this actually quite sophisticated device is anyone's trial and error.I had never used Alexa before and had zero experience, and I was totally amazed how easy it is to set up and add your systems to (through the separate Alexa app, your Amazon and other device app/account permissions etc etc - actually pretty complicated behind the scenes but Alexa is actually quite easy to learn if you're a nerd, and Very sophisticated in what it can do! Groups from multiple systems instead of just Rooms in other systems is just a start!)So, overall: build quality, visual output, smart design for Tuya devices, easily 5 stars. Alexa enabled, 5 stars. Limited to Tuya visual output, 3-4 stars (compared to Alexa Hub). Poor documentation, 4 stars (even though the vendor is trying now that I pointed this out.)I got this on a good sale, and had I not found out about the Alexa Hub 3 days before the return window closed, I would be happy enough, mostly because you can access most other systems you have via in-built Alexa, which works Very Well (says Alexa newbie.) But for only $15 more on prime days I can get the Alexa Hub and See and talk to every one of my systems, incl Tuya. So I will be returning this tomorrow. I just hope the Alexa Hub display is as good as this control panel, because this one is really good.Moes customer service is very responsive and concerned about a good customer result. This won't be the first Tuya device you get (though it should be if you want to use the more sophisticated Moes app, rather than SmartLife or Tuya app you probably have your things added to, but it works fine with those apps.) Tuya is a very good platform, I've used it for some years now. The devices made for this system have all been up to speed and Tuya has been an innovator in smart homes on some fronts. My issue is a really smart home, with security and cameras and locks and sensors (Tuya doesn't make, especially long distance ones), aren't in the Tuya system (yet.) And I've already had these other half a dozen systems for years also, as they each filled niches at the time (and like Tuya, most have gotten even better over time.) So it's Alexa that can tie all these together for ya, and it looks like I'm going with an Alexa Hub. If that's disappointing, and on balance no better (maybe worse?) than this Moes control panel, I will happily come back to this Moes panel and wait for technology to evolve...

Smart home time
The media could not be loaded. I had a totes that’s gonna be really difficult to change your home on smart control but all depends what equipment you using after ordering small smart control panel and connect with my Google Assistant. Everything become much more easier and smarter. I don’t need to have a background to set up every single listed just follow step-by-step.

Product and app just aren't ready for prime time
It's neat, I'll give it that. The installation was a breeze, no problem. GRN, L, N, and L1 for a single switch ~ I'm not an electrician but I did this myself. It's also pretty, which is why this isn't getting a 1 star.The product software is lacking. You cannot adjust the weather/temp to Fahrenheit, which, in selling to an American market, is a tremendous miss. I'm sure they'll update in a future software update, but until then, a frustration.The 'home page' with the two on-screen buttons only plays with lights connected or devices native to the Moes/Zigbee/Tuya family.You cannot set or control Alexa routines via this panel, which is what I bought it for. I wanted to be able to trigger a prompt/command to Alexa via the two on-screen buttons for day and night lighting, but this is not possible via current software. I appreciate you CAN communicate with Alexa via the panel but can NOT set any automation related to Alexa. The app should allow me to set a 'Scene' wherein IF scheduled time THEN "alexa, do X".Until the software is updated, it's kind of just a glorified mini Alexa Echo Show with less functionality.my last gripe is that the screen is a finger print magnet, and its glossy enough that you can see the finger prints from anywhere in the room.
