3. When it does, the Nest Hello will verge a video doorbell with some of the features you'd expect from a Nest Cam. Nest HelloInstead of the fisheye view you'd get from some doorbell cameras, Nest Hello combines a 160 degree field of view with a 4:3 aspect ratio. That gives you not only a wide angle view of the area around your front door, but a top to bottom view that lets you see the entire person approaching your door. It's also a handy view for spotting packages. Nest says the camera has HDR imaging for a clear picture, and there's a night vision feature, too.

That's because the concept of a "smart home" is relatively new, and the term itself is fairly nebulous. Two readers wanted to know the best way to get started. Image credit: Philips "Which systems are good for learning how to install full home smart systems?" AdicommunicationsukAs we explain in our Smart Home Guide, a smart home can be as simple as a set of lights that you can control from your phone.

From there, just plug a lamp, a coffee maker or anything else into the smart plug, and you'll be able to integrate that device into your smart home.
