Key differences between Leviton Decora Smart Wi-Fi Switch D315S and Lutron Caseta Diva Smart Dimmer Switch

A summary of selected recorded differences between these wall switches. Check the full specification table below for details and conditions.

Feature differences among your selected devices
  • 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi (connectivity): Leviton Decora Smart Wi-Fi Switch D315S — Yes (802.11 b/g/n on 2.4 GHz, with WPA, WPA2, WPA3 or open security); Lutron Caseta Diva Smart Dimmer Switch — No (The dimmer reaches the Lutron Smart Hub, Pico remotes and Caseta motion sensors over Lutron's own Clear Connect RF rather than Wi-Fi, which is why the lights keep responding when the router is down).
  • Bluetooth (connectivity): Leviton Decora Smart Wi-Fi Switch D315S — Yes (Bluetooth v5.0 on board, and the CSA Matter certificate lists Wi-Fi and Bluetooth as the transports of this model); Lutron Caseta Diva Smart Dimmer Switch — No.
  • Matter (integrations): Leviton Decora Smart Wi-Fi Switch D315S — Yes (Matter ready out of the box, certified by the CSA under certificate CSA25943MAT47253-24; the setup code is on the device, on the packaging and in the My Leviton app, and the switch can be commissioned into several Matter controllers); Lutron Caseta Diva Smart Dimmer Switch — No (The CSA certified-product database holds no Matter certification for Lutron (only three Zigbee 3.0 Aurora dimmers), and Lutron's own Caseta compatibility page never mentions Matter).
  • Neutral Required (power): Leviton Decora Smart Wi-Fi Switch D315S — Yes (A neutral wire in the wallbox is required; Leviton's no-neutral Wi-Fi switch is the separate DN15S, which needs the MLWSB bridge); Lutron Caseta Diva Smart Dimmer Switch — No (Simple two-wire installation, so no neutral wire is needed in the wallbox).
Specifications to check side by side
  • Alexa (integrations): Leviton Decora Smart Wi-Fi Switch D315S — Yes (Leviton lists Amazon Alexa control for the D315S); Lutron Caseta Diva Smart Dimmer Switch — Lutron Hub required (Lutron lists Amazon Alexa among the platforms Caseta works with, through the Lutron Smart Hub).
  • Apple Home (integrations): Leviton Decora Smart Wi-Fi Switch D315S — Yes (Leviton lists Apple Home and Siri, and the switch is Matter certified, so Apple Home commissions it over Matter); Lutron Caseta Diva Smart Dimmer Switch — Lutron Hub required (Lutron lists Apple Home among the platforms Caseta works with; the Apple Home technology sits in the smart hub, so Siri controls the dimmer once it is paired to one).
  • Google Home (integrations): Leviton Decora Smart Wi-Fi Switch D315S — Yes (Leviton lists Google Home and Hey Google voice control for the D315S); Lutron Caseta Diva Smart Dimmer Switch — Lutron Hub required (Lutron lists Google Assistant among the platforms Caseta works with, through the Lutron Smart Hub).
