Flic, the company behind the popular Flic smart button, has unveiled its latest innovation at CES 2025 – the Flic Duo. With over a decade of expertise, the Flic Duo is a sleek, compact device designed to revolutionise how we manage our smart homes. Its minimalistic design and intuitive functionality make it a versatile alternative to traditional wall-mounted switches.
The Flic Duo combines simple button presses with advanced, customisable gestures, offering a seamless and modern approach to controlling lights, music, blinds, and more. Thanks to its detachable design, users can carry it around the house or return it to its magnetic wall mount after use – blending practicality with innovation.
