Making your home safer, warmer and more intelligent

Of all the IoT products T3 has tested so far, Nest’s have the best handle on the smart home. The Google-owned company reinvented the thermostat through sheer design, and made us all consider the advantages of a connected home with a Learning Thermostat at its heart. Then came the Nest Protect, a smoke and CO2 alarm that made a perfect sidekick for the thermostat, with each product gaining functionality when paired. Adding the Nest Cam completed the trio, but also opened the door to a world of innovative Works With Nest products that have been vetted and approved by Google.

While these three products work brilliantly together, they’re also a pleasure to use individually. Who can resist tweaking the temperature when your thermostat is so well engineered from metal and glass? Meanwhile, the cool, commanding voice of the Nest Protect almost makes us want to burn the toast!

T3 looks forward to what Nest has in store next – but it’s already made giant steps into making our lives easier.
