Best Screen: Canvas II
Bring your fine art (and favorite photos) to life with this smart digital canvas by Meural. Our team already loved the original, and the new screen has two different sizes, four different frame finishes, improved Wi-Fi connectivity, and better energy efficiency.
Best Assistant: Google Nest Hub Max
The new Google Nest Hub Max upgrades an already fantastic product with a larger screen, a camera, and bigger sound. And it retains two of our favorite features from the first generation: It makes a great digital photo frame that syncs with your Google Photos as well as a bedside alarm clock.
Best Shade: Somfy Zigbee 3.0 Connected Shades
Somfy’s newest smart shades (announced at CEDIA Sept 2019) let you control both your privacy and the temperature of your home with Zigbee home networking technology.
