After exploring the expansive exhibition space of CES 2025, we have compiled a list of the standout smart home gadgets specifically curated for Apple aficionados. From versatile robot vacuum cleaners to compact projectors, here’s what captured our attention.
Following nearly a week of navigating through booths and staying active with our Apple Watches, we’ve emerged from CES with an impressive lineup. We primarily spotlighted products compatible with Apple Home or Matter technology; however, we also included some other noteworthy innovations.
The best part? Most of these devices will be available for purchase very soon.
NeoPlants Power Drops: Transforming Indoor Greenery
Our first discovery at the event was intriguing yet simple. Previously at CES 2024, NeoPlants unveiled a specially engineered plant designed to enhance indoor air purification capabilities beyond that of typical houseplants.
Fast forward to 2025, they introduced an innovative product called Power Drops—a powder that you mix with water and apply to your existing plants. By using this transformation aid, any standard household plant can potentially act as an augmented air purifier.
According to independently verified tests, these plants can become up to thirty times more effective at filtering volatile organic compounds (VOCs), such as benzene and formaldehyde from your home’s atmosphere. While they won’t replace traditional air purifiers entirely, these enhancements are an excellent complement for any tech-savvy residence.
A conventional air purifier provides additional filtration systems for larger particles like PM2.5 dust; however, supplementing your environment with Power Drops is priced affordably starting at $5 per pack—one needed each month per plant.
Evenflo Sensory Soothe: Smart Baby Gear
Few smart devices cater specifically to infants within the Apple Home ecosystem due in part to stringent guidelines regarding children’s accounts by Apple itself. Nevertheless, the Evenflo Sensory Soothe Carrier stands out remarkably well in this domain.
This unique baby carrier doubles as a car seat equipped with integrated smart lighting embedded in its handlebar designed especially for calming irritable babies through vibrant color displays and rhythmic animations influenced by soothing patterns chosen by parents themselves via Siri control while driving hands-free . The customizable settings allow users full service according their child’s preference it will start shipping soon!
Honeywell Home X2S: Budget-Friendly Comfort Control
Honeywell has often been associated less directly —through separate branches —with Apple’s device support since numerous Resideo products lie outside Apple’s usual network standards , but previous offerings such as First Alert ,a renowned Fire Safety brand still hold them firmly amidst known “smart” smoke detectors featuring built-in Airplay speaker capabilities !
Innovative Gadgets and Smart Home Solutions Unveiled at CES 2025
Lutron Products: Reliable Smart Home Integration
Lutron devices offer exceptional reliability, seamless integration with Apple Home, and the convenience of control through Lutron Pico remotes, making them a favorite among smart home enthusiasts.
Govee: Evolving with Matter Support
Historically, Govee’s offerings have been overlooked in the AppleInsider landscape. While their products were budget-friendly and well-made, they lacked compatibility with Apple Home until now.
With the advent of Matter technology, many of Govee’s new products are beginning to support this standard—resulting in full compatibility with Apple Home.
At CES 2025, attendees were treated to a preview of two upcoming Matter-compatible products from Govee set for release early next year.
The Multifunctional Govee Floor Lamp
Among the highlights was an innovative floor lamp featuring an adjustable downlight paired with a unique upward-facing luminaire. This upper light doubles as an aurora projector that casts enchanting light patterns across walls and ceilings.
Portable Pairing for Stereo Sensation
The second noteworthy introduction is a portable lamp adorned in multiple colors that boasts a speaker at its apex. Users can connect two units together for stereo sound enhanced by JBL technology—ideal for vibrant gatherings or cozy nights in.
SwitchBot K20+: A Revolutionary Assistant for Modern Homes
The SwitchBot K20+ system turned heads at CES due to its remarkable capability as both a robotic vacuum cleaner and versatile assistant around the home.
Picture this: your robotic vacuum not only cleans but also serves drinks or transports your air purifier where it’s needed most—all thanks to the K20+ design strategy which includes modular attachments like trays or holders for various appliances or security cameras.
An Innovative Approach to Domestic Task Management
This aspiration raises questions about practicality—how frequently will users need to interchange attachments? Yet even unwieldy variations offer intriguing potential when released alongside Matter support compatible with other smart home systems like Apple Home by early 2025!
Your Garden’s New Companion from Experience Wonder
The makers behind Bird Buddy have revealed something special—a modular camera designed specifically for monitoring garden activity.
A compact device named Petal enables swappable lenses (macro/wide), allowing positioning either suspended around plants or fixed onto solar-powered bases—all while taking care of surveillance duties within gardens while leveraging AI solutions tracking plant health!
