Smart home breakthroughs at the Consumer Electronic Show 2025

Amazon Echo Vision:

Amazon’s new Echo Vision isn’t just another smart speaker. The new device features an embedded display and AI-powered scene detection that can change your lighting, music and even recommend activities based on your mood.

Aqara Panel Hub S1 Plus:

It’s a 6.9-inch touch screen that makes it easy to manage your smart home. You can control lighting, security, and temperature, but it also acts as a Matter controller. These are responsible for controlling Matter devices (like smart locks, smart lights, sensors, media devices and many more) in a smart home. The task is not tied to a specific device category. The control function can be integrated into various products.

2. Smart Security and Surveillance

Aqara Doorbell Camera Hub G410:

Aqara's G410 Doorbell Camera is a high-definition, 2K video doorbell for easy integration into your smart home. It features an advanced motion sensor that recognises humans, animals and objects, so you won't get false alarms. It also has a built-in Zigbee/Matter hub that functions as a smart home controller. It can serve as both a security device and a home automation hub.

Arlo AI Guard:

Arlo AI Guard isn’t just another security camera—it’s a new kind of security system, powered by AI, for smarter, more accurate threat detection. Using advanced AI and machine learning, it can tell the difference between a person, a package, a car, or even a pet, so you get fewer false alarms, and your home stays protected against real threats.

3. Smart Displays and Home Entertainment

Samsung S95F OLED TV:

For those who demand picture perfection and motion that’s as smooth as silk, the 165Hz refresh rate delivers super-smooth motion that gives fast-action gaming and movies a theatre-like appeal. Enhanced anti-glare technology keeps ambient light from interfering with picture clarity, so you can enjoy a great view even in bright rooms.

LG OLED Evo G4 Series:

Powered by LG’s new 11 AI processor, this TV analyses and optimises images in real-time, ensuring every frame is crisp, clear, and colourful. Dolby Vision Pro and Dolby Atmos bring the cinema home, while NVIDIA G-Sync and AMD Free Sync compatibility make it an elite choice for gamers.

Hisense Laser TV 2025:

With its 120-inch screen and ultra-short-throw laser projection, this TV creates a cinema-like experience at home. It also supports Dolby Vision and HDR10+, which enhance brightness and contrast for more realistic movies. The built-in 50W Dolby Atmos speakers fill the room with surround sound, so you don’t need an external sound system.

4. Smart Kitchen & Cooking

LG AI Home Inside 2.0 Refrigerator:

This LG AI Home Inside 2.0 Refrigerator is more than just a fridge — it’s a fully connected kitchen assistant. With AI-powered sensors and cameras, it scans and recognises what’s inside, tracks expiration dates, and even suggests personalised recipes based on what you have on hand. It even works with LG ThinQ, so you can remotely monitor and control the fridge through a smartphone app.

Kohler Purist Smart Faucet:

Hands-free, voice-controlled convenience for the kitchen, that’s what the Kohler Purist Smart Faucet offers. It’s compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, so you can turn on and off the water, dispense exact amounts, and set custom temperatures with simple voice commands. Motion-sensing technology lets you activate the faucet with a wave of your hand—perfect for when your hands are sticky with dough.

iRobot Roomba J9 plus:

This hands-free cleaning device with Precision Vision easily identifies and avoids common household obstacles. Dirt Detect AI identifies high-traffic areas and gives those spots extra cleaning attention. The automatic self-emptying base stores up to 60 days of dust and debris, so you don’t have to empty the bin often.

Dyson Purifier Big+Quiet Formaldehyde:

This is engineered for large spaces, offering powerful air purification with minimal noise. The HEPA H13 filtration system captures 99.95% of airborne pollutants, including pet dander, pollen, bacteria, and ultrafine particles. Additionally, its formaldehyde-destroying filter actively breaks down harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds), ensuring cleaner and healthier indoor air.

LG PuriCare 360° Dual:

It’s a smart air purifier designed to provide comprehensive air filtration from every angle. Featuring dual fans and a 360-degree purification system, it ensures that every corner of a room receives clean air. Equipped with AI-powered sensors, it automatically detects real-time air quality levels and adjusts purification intensity accordingly.

CES 2025 set the gold standard for smart home technology, introducing devices that are more intelligent, energy-efficient, and interconnected. With AI-driven automation, enhanced security, and sustainable solutions, these innovations are making homes safer, more convenient, and environmentally friendly. As we step into the future, these cutting-edge products are not just redefining how we interact with our homes—they are reshaping the way we live.
