Best smart home packages

There are other kits that are generally considered among the best smart home packages. One of the most elementary ones is the Samsung SmartThings Home Monitoring Kit which is great for those who are just approaching home automation as it offers the possibility to integrate other smart devices besides the ones offered in the basic package. Other packages considered among the best are the Philips Hue Starter Kit, Arlo Pro 3 Wireless Home Security Kit, Lutro Caseta Smart Lighting Kit. These packages are very convenient because they provide the basics to those who are just approaching home automation. Some of them offer basic, themed kits. For instance, some packages are designed to increase home security, so they are mostly made up of security devices. Other packages, conversely, are more focused on comfort so they might include smart thermostats and smart lighting systems. Nearly all of them, though, are designed to include a ‘personal assistant’, such as Google Assistant or Amazon’s Alexa. Often these assistants work with several packages. The assistants are devices with whom you speak and direct them in programming other devices part of the package and connected to the same Wi-Fi. For instance, you might ask Google Assistant or Alexa to play a specific song on your phone or to start the heating system every day at a certain time of the day. With the assistants you can easily control your whole smart home system by simply talking to them as if you were talking with a real-person assistant. For this reason, these are some of the best smart home packages currently on the market.

These package deals and smart home starter kit are becoming, also, increasingly cheaper. As technologies are developed, smart devices are made with less effort. Due to the production process becoming less expensive, the products on the market also show a decrease in their price. Smart devices are, thus, slowly becoming more and more accessible even for those living on lower incomes. This is significant because it means that smart homes could become so common that they effectively revolutionize our idea of what it means to be at home.
