News & Reviews:   Smart Home

If there's one device category that hasn't gotten much traction yet, it would have to be smart home products. Not many see value in that since you can do a lot of things manually. But maybe Xiaomi could change some minds with a global launch tonight.

Mah Sing Group Berhad and Philips Lighting officially signed a memorandum of understanding today to package smart home technology like the Philips Hue System for their new Caspia @ M Residence 2 homes. The Philips Hue System will allow users to control their connected lights intelligently from anywhere in the world using a smart device for leisure and security and is compatible with most platforms including voice commands with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Nest and Apple HomeKit.
