Lights

Smart lights are the future. And the future is now apparently. These are basic but maybe the best thing to go smart yet.

Virtual assistants

These should have come first, but we would have had you thinking this is an article from 2008. At this point, they are a must-have. The most common virtual assistants are Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Due to constant development and fine-tuning, these can integrate all your smart devices into one in addition to learning your schedule, routines and patterns to give the best experience.

Vacuums

Again, not anything new but a gadget that has evolved to be common in the modern home. A smart vacuum has a schedule and knows your floor plans and some smart vacuums even empty themselves in readiness for the next cleaning cycle. And how convenient is that?

Trash cans

In a world where we are very aware of proper waste disposal, a smart trash can is a step in the right direction. A smart trash can does away with the traditional step and replaces it with an automatic lid that is linked to some proximity sensors. These smart trash cans also seal the trash bags on their own once they are full. Some can also sort recyclables from non-recyclables for the sustainable world we are all aiming at.

The smart world is endless and anything that you can think of has its smart alternative. Some other smart gadgets that you may include in your home are smart mirrors, smart curtains and smart doorbells. Sometimes, as tech enthusiasts, we are allowed to buy some of these gadgets because we can amaze our non-tech-inclined friends.
