Google has just launched some cool new smart home gadgets that make your home safer and more fun! These include the Google Home Speaker, Nest Cam Indoor (3rd gen), Nest Cam Outdoor (2nd gen), and the Nest Doorbell (3rd gen). All these gadgets use Gemini for Home, which is Google’s new artificial intelligence (AI) helper.
A Smarter Google Home Speaker
The new Google Home Speaker is not just any speaker—it is designed to “talk” with you in a natural way. Thanks to Gemini AI, it can appreciate your questions better and give smoother answers. It also has:
- 360-degree sound, which means music plays evenly all around the room.
- The selection to pair with another speaker or Google TV for a home theatre experience.
- A light ring that glows when Gemini is listening or replying.
- A mute button so you can turn off the microphone when you want privacy.
The Google Home Speaker will cost $99.99 (around Rs. 8,900) and will be presented in Spring 2026 in many countries, including the US, Canada, UK, France, Germany, and Spain. It comes in four colors: Berry, Hazel, Jade, and Porcelain.
Nest Cams: Eyes for Your House
Google has also updated its Nest Cams.
- The Nest Cam Indoor (3rd gen) is priced at $99.99 (Rs. 8,900).
- The Nest Cam Outdoor (2nd gen) costs $149.99 (Rs. 13,300).
These cameras are different because they record in 2K HDR quality, which makes videos very clear. They also send smart alerts—like if your dog jumps out of its playpen!
You don’t have to scroll through hours of video. You can simply ask, “What happened to the vase in the living room?” and the camera will show you the clip. Cool, right?
These devices are also very safe. They use encrypted video, have two-step Google account verification, and a green LED light shows when they are recording. Both are IP65-rated, which means they can hold dust and a bit of water.
Nest Doorbell: Smarter Greetings
The new Nest Doorbell (3rd gen) is priced at $179.99 (around Rs. 16,000). It will first presentation in the US and Canada. Like the Nest Cams, it records in 2K HDR video and sends alerts about visitors.
Final Thoughts
With these new devices, Google is making homes smarter and safer. The speaker brings better conversations and music, while the cameras and doorbell keep an eye on things. Together, they make a home that listens, watches, and assist you every day!
