    This is only the beginning to get you in the right direction! Let me know what you want to learn more details about below. One thing I forgot to say is that many of these smart products are referred to as IOT (internet of things) devices. There are thousands of products you can choose from so make sure they will connect the way you want before you buy them!

    changing the speed to 1.5 helped watch this video :)
  • @garethjones5068
    A genuinely awesome video that absolutely nails both displaying the huge range of smart home options but distilling them down to be understandable for new adopters, having something like this at the start of my smart home journey would have saved me hours of research & more than a little money!
  • @robertrosenberg
    thank you - very few people can explain things without being massively in favour of one type over another. It is very helpful to understand what is out there
  • @ivyk5796
    Moved out of my parents house 2 weeks ago. Got a chrome cast from someone who got a 4K one and I got a nest mini on black Friday. Now watching this. Wallet is crying.
  • @NilsoNxAlmeida
    Best video for begginers! I was looking for an explanation like this for days. Thanks! A hug from Brazil!
  • Thank You -- So very helpful for an old guy who never knew where to get started. I intend to control a smart plug with my cell phone while away from home. Going with Hue for now.
  • Hi and Greetings from the UK, I have just started with this technology, and being a 73 year old retired electrician, with mobility problems, I found your video both instructive and informative, I can do most installation work the physical part but I have to get my son and grandson to do the programming part. Many thanks for sharing it, I use the Amazon devices where ever around the house, it does make my life easier.
    Kindest regards
  • This was one of the most informative videos I’ve seen on setting up smart home devices. I really like the step by step and knowing why I need it.
  • @xamsun887e
    Thanks for the video! Tons of useful information! I'm just getting started to change mine into a smart home little by little and this explains a lot , thank you .
  • @pmrp12
    This was awesome Brett! Thank you—very helpful. Your videos convinced me to go the Google Assistant + Nest route and I’ve been pondering how to keep growing my smart home. I think lights are up next for me—planning a video per category?
  • @anthonyharmon
    Huge respect for breaking this down the way you did without siding like you're belittling people. 👍🏿
  • @Hermina0505
    thank you so much for this. it helped me a lot as I'm about to start building my smart home.
  • @randomdude1053
    Great video! Should mention if you have ring alarm or ADT, they can work with your smart home! Only moved into a smart home 2 months ago and in love with the concept. Feels very modern
  • @jeezy1015
    Dude! I subscribed so fast. I'm just beginning to build my smart home with philips hue, google home hub and nest doorbell/thermostat. I'll definitely be coming back to your channel to understand samsung smarthings to control it all as well as chromecast to make it easier to cut the cord👌🏽
  • Thanks for the video. Finally a video that actually explains setting up a smart home!
  • @JP-je5ix
    Thanks Brett
    Just starting my Smart Home...very informative!
