Nest Learning Thermostat Review: A Pretty Smart Home Temperature Solution

Technology

It seems like you’ve copied a review of the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th-gen) from The Verge. Here’s a summary of the key points:

Pros:

  • Easy to set up and use
  • Stylish design
  • Effective at keeping homes comfortable
  • Works well with smart home systems, including Apple Home

Cons:

  • Lacks occupancy detection in room sensors (something Ecobee and Honeywell Home’s remote sensors offer)
  • Temperature sensors use Bluetooth instead of Thread
  • Limited features compared to Ecobee Premium

Comparison to Ecobee Premium:

  • Ecobee is more complicated to set up and use, but has more features and capabilities
  • Ecobee supports multiple smart home systems, including Apple Home
  • Ecobee is a better fit for those who want their heating and cooling system to adjust automatically as they move around the house

Data Privacy:

  • Nest collects data from four sensors (motion, temperature, humidity, and ambient light)
  • Google keeps all home environment sensor readings separate from advertising and does not use this data for ad personalization
  • Data is deleted from Google’s servers if you delete your Google account
