The Best Smart Displays for Your Home

1. Google Home Hub

GOOGLE

This tidy 7-inch display is our favorite nightstand fixture: The screen analyzes the light in the room and automatically adjusts—so you get an easy-on-the-eyes morning clock face. While there’s no camera, it spits out your day’s details, like weather and the morning commute, after you say, “Hey, Google, good morning.”

2. LG XBOOM AI ThinQ WK9

Smart displays often prioritize screens over audio, but LG’s two 20-watt speakers mean party-quality sound for your Spotify playlist. With an 8-inch Google-enabled high-definition display, video is crisp enough to watch Netflix from your breakfast bar.

3. Lenovo Smart Tab P10

This 10-inch full-high-definition tablet docks seamlessly into a Dolby Atmos soundbar that punches above its weight. Control Alexa-compatible smart home tech with your voice or finger, or pull the tablet out to read on the sofa.

4. Archos Mate 7

Unlike displays that are bound to an outlet, the rechargeable Mate 7 (available this summer) lets you answer a smart doorbell or stream Amazon videos from a hammock. The design works in landscape or portrait mode, depending on the app.

5. Cleer Connect

Whether standing or lounging, you can tilt this Google-enabled 8-inch touchscreen’s display for the best viewing angle. If you make video calls, you’ll appreciate the clear incoming and outbound sound optimized by the audio tube’s two-way drivers.
