Thank you for your answer. My goal was buy a dongle which works with Zigbee binding, but looks that this isn’t it. I will try buy a Sonoff Zigbee dongle, maybe this will work.
Maybe tell us which devices you want to control via zigbee binding? The zigbee binding only works with devices that have a proper implementation of the zigbee standard. But many devices (xiaomi, aqara) do not completely follow the standard and thus don’t work with the zigbee binding.
In zigbee2mqtt additional effort is done to make them work. So before buying hardware maybe ask here if somebody successfully connected your device via zigbee binding.
that’s a typical chinese manufacturer. Many MiBoxer devices work with zigbee2mqtt.

But I highly doubt that it’s going to work with the binding.
Well, I don’t really have the market knowledge to recommend anything specific.
My thinking was: if I were in the situation of adding a new wireless protocol to my home, I’d probably check whether I could go all-in on Matter right away, since that clearly seems to be more and more the future.
Personally, I’m currently running around 50 Zigbee devices, and I’m actually quite happy with that setup. It’s pretty robust.
Besides Zigbee, I’m also very happy with Shelly devices, but after a quick look I didn’t really find anything suitable there either.
