The internet of things … or you can call it “Smart Homes” isS-l-o-w-l-ybecoming a reality … well sort of. CNET takes a look at the Ecobee 3 and the Nest … but $250 for a thermostat? Really?
“The Ecobee3 and the Nest Learning Thermostat both cost $250 (£155, AU$285), both have iOS and Android apps, and both apps let you change the temperature remotely, set schedules, choose temperature preferences, and the like. As far as the basics are concerned, the contest is a tie.
As far as advanced smarts, Nest and Ecobee take different paths. The Nest Learning Thermostat lives up to its name by gradually learning your schedule and habits, and then anticipating them and adjusting itself for you over time.”
