I decided to give the YoLink light switches a try after purchasing a Yolink hub and flood sensors a few months earlier. I needed to replace some much older motion sensor/light switch combos that only worked with incandescent bulbs. Of all the options I looked at, these were by far the best value and I liked the wide range of products that work together with the same hub and app. Initially I was looking at Zwave or Zigbee products but decided on YoLink after comparing prices and doing the math.
Most of the YoLink devices can be paired together directly in addition to pairing with the hub, such that simple automations will still work if the Internet connection is down (e.g. activating a switch with a motion sensor or door sensor). On the downside, YoLink's communication protocol is proprietary and not compatible with API's like OpenHAB. But so far the app's built-in automation features have been enough for my needs. The only other thing I would nitpick is that you can't configure the LED behavior on the switch itself, which some competing products allow. Alexa integration works great. The YoLink app keeps full history of switch state and allows configuring the switch's power-on state (recovery after power failure), which can be on, off, or last state. Device firmware upgrades are easy, though I would not recommend kicking off more than one or two at a time, as they all need to download from the hub. Overall I'm pretty happy with this purchase as well as other products in YoLink's ecosystem.
[UPDATE]
As of Jan 2024, these switches now cost $36 each, which is no longer a good value (not for a closed/proprietary API). They used to cost $22 each. Keeping the 5 star rating as I'm happy with my past purchases, but I won't be buying any more Yolink products if the prices stay this high.

Great addition to the YoLink ecosystem, but it isn't the highest quality switch. B+
I really love the yolink ecosystem. they are super easy to add to the system, so i was excited to migrate from my zwave switch that controlled my outside garage lights to this system. Overall it works and does what it is designed to do, but i do have a few minor issues i hope they address in future light switches.1) As most others have noted, the red LED light is sort of annoying. I have it in the garage so it isn't that big of a deal, but i would not want these throughout the house in main living areas. THe red indicator light when off is just very bright and annoying. I would rather it be a very small led indicator in the bottom corner. Or if you could change the LED maybe a different color would be better, and/or brightness level. if that was controllable. When on it is 'white' which is fine.2) The overall feel of the switch is not the best i have seen. Where you make the connection for the electrical, the screw is what bites into the copper to hold it in. It does make a very secure connection when tugging, but most other switches have molre of a plate that squeezes the cable on the inside. Again it seems to be ok but just something i noticed.3) My switch came with the arrow facing down (opposite of the instructions which tell you to have it facing up). Support noted it was fine to install, but again just noting that it was not what the directions had.4) THe switch housing is a little thicker than the other traditional switches, so i think my cover plate was not fully flush on the one side. i took a picture so you can see although it may be hard. I'd rather it be designed more like a traditional switch and if needed be able to tear off the ears as some setups do require that.5) I would have loved if this was an energy management capabilities to keep track of how much power, but not a deal breaker, especially at this price point.6) The software does have sunrise/sunset scheduling, but i am hoping they include more advanced such as 'x minutes before and x minutes after to tweak my settings a little better for my needs.Again overall i like it and great price point but hopefully they address some of these in future models.
