The smart appliances I could see a use for are thermostats, ovens and, if I didn’t only ever shower, baths. Each of those take a while to get going, each would be nice to start getting going while you’re on your way home so they’re ready for when you walk in the door. Other than that, smart appliances seem pretty unnecessary to me.

Now it’ll last all day and all night with about a 45min charge while I’m getting ready in the morning. It’s way more responsive for maps, music etc. I got the basic 3, not the phone one cos I couldn’t see any need for that and having an ongoing additional plan cost.
