The best all-round pick for HA users replacing a combi boiler stat: the X line pairs into Home Assistant over Matter/Thread for fully local control, with no tado subscription needed. Note the older 'tado' cloud integration does not support X devices — use Matter.

Pairs as a climate entity via HA's native Matter integration — but only basic on/off and setpoint control, plus a humidity sensor. HA's dedicated tado integration explicitly doesn't support X devices, and Matter drops auto-scheduling and open-window detection, so pair a door/window sensor to an automation that sets the climate entity off when a window opens, replicating what Tado's own app does natively but Matter can't.
