Thanks for stopping by Shane! We had a blast showing you our tech and the frictionless experience UWB can enable!

[TerraMagnus]

One of the big wins of Matter was supposed to be getting rid of our hubs. Look at all these vendors taking the lazy route and only bringing forward matter hubs.

[debokor]

Nice overview. I’m hoping to see more HomeKit secure video options for security cameras. There are very few options right now, particularly for garage type floodlights.

[DreadyDreadlocks]

Best CES video I’ve seen so far. To the point with the important HomeKit info.

[RogerWilsonTodd]

Waiting for Matter-enabled smoke detectors.

[TerraMagnus]

I honestly wish there’d been more. Some unfulfilled matter over thread dreams around garage door management, smoke detectors, recessed door/window sensors. I was really hoping Govee, Nanoleaf, and Aqara would have made a bigger commitment.

Thirdreality is stepping up nicely. I’ve got some of their Zigbee variant of the night lights so seeing them getting into Matter is good. Just wish they were doing more Matter over Thread instead of cluttering up WiFi more.

[TerraMagnus]

Good callout on potential of Ultra Wideband. It would be cool to revisit this idea, openly imagining what could be done in the hopes that manifesting that idea verbally will get a manufacturer on top of it.

[randygreen]

Great stuff Shane! I’m really liking that ThirdReality plant monitoring and watering system. This would help anyone with a brown thumb and definitely automate a grow system for those that have them. All in all the future looks bright for home automation albeit expensive. 💪🏼😎👍🏼

[Shinalight]

Awesome video and I do appreciate your HomeKit efforts 👏 why has no one provided an HomeKit audio sensor that would notify us when our legacy washer or dryer cycle is complete? 🤔

[AZTenor]

Hoping we finally get our Matter mop/vacuum this year. Preferably with thread support

[mikebedford]

Great work Shane! - I feel a little underwhelmed about CES as I had expected more from the show. Hopefully WWDC will give Apple Home a kick along as its high time video escalated above simple 1080p. 
As for Matter, it's about time it fully supported (unless I've missed it?) refrigerators, washing machines, dishwashers smoke alarms, air quality sensors, air purifiers and room air conditioners as we still aren't able to fully connect to everything at home.

[TakWorks]

Thanks for the great review. The soil thermometer and sprinkler system sounds interesting and different from what we usually get

[tadmarshall]

Thanks for this nicely focused CES summary. I've seen too many "weird and goofy stuff I found at CES" videos, on-topic is refreshing!

[S.E.C-R]

I knew we should have waited to buy our Govee curtain lights and outdoor lights. We just spent a lot of money in November to light up our home for Christmas!

[timmy]

Great video Shane. Thanks for keeping us up to date!

[garanceadrosehn]

This is a nice quick overview of quite a few products for the smarthome. Products that I might actually buy instead of the $10, 000 huge TV screens that so many CES visitors have been impressed by! Looks like it should be a good year for new products. Looks like it was definitely worthwhile for you to attend CES. Thanks for the video!

[BrandonDoyleMN]

Great coverage! It’s like I was there ;)

[Dr_Cole]

Dude - you look exhausted! Thanks for this amazing roundup of all the great/interesting new tech. I can’t wait for the Flic Twist to become more useful. I have 2 of the black ones and they are just hanging out like hockey pucks.

On a side note, I was bummed to see that Eve was not present. There are days when I have more Eve products than Amazon’s California warehouses. I hope this is not an indication of a sale or pivot away from SmartHome tech!

[movingloz]

Wow 😮. Awesome vid Shane yet again. Thank You 🙏 so very much for bringing CES to all of us.

[kevinpoinsett]

Cool video. I was eagerly awaiting Sunday because I knew you’d have the best smart home coverage 👍
