NVIDIA debuted the new SHIELD TV at CES 2017 earlier this month and it’s also available for purchase.

Now the Google Assistant is still in an early-beta form on the SHIELD TV, but it is pretty impressive already.
ASUS ZenWatch 3
Now the ASUS ZenWatch 3 isn’t really that new, but it is now available. It was announced during the fall, and is one of the latest smartwatches to run on Android Wear. This smartwatch will be getting the upgrade to Android Wear 2.0 in a few weeks when Google rolls it out. It is also the first smartwatch from ASUS with a round display.
Amazon Echo Dot
This accessory also isn’t new, but it is still pretty impressive. The Amazon Echo Dot is a smaller version of the Echo and it does still have Alexa inside. Allowing you to use it as a regular speaker (which can also be connected to other speakers) or use it to control your smart home, ask it questions and so much more.
DJI Mavic Pro
DJI has taken the drone world by storm with their Phantom drones and now the Mavic Pro is coming out and it’s even better. This drone isn’t cheap, coming in at $999, but it is super portable along with having an incredible 4K camera included. The DJI Mavic Pro is set to be released on March 20th, but you can pre-order it now.
WeMo Mini Smart Plug
So WeMo has had smart plugs for quite some time, but they were rather large. Not anymore. The Mini Smart Plug is small enough to where you can plug two in one outlet and have two separate outlets for powering things on and off. And because it’s WiFi connected and using WeMo, you can control it from your smartphone or even using your voice with Alexa.
Lyric T5 Wi-Fi Thermostat
Speaking of things that work with Alexa, this thermostat also works with Alexa. It’s Wi-Fi connected, so you can adjust the temperature from anywhere in the world using your smartphone. Since it does have Alexa integration, you can also go ahead and use your voice to adjust the temperature in your home.

TP-Link Smart LED Light Bulb
TP-Link also has something that works with Alexa, and that’s this Smart LED light bulb. They offer a few different models, but you just put them into your light socket and then you can control it with your smartphone or even with Alexa. Which means you can tell Alexa to turn on the lights, instead of jumping out of bed, or reaching for your phone.
