6 Smart Home Devices I'm Still Using Even After My Reviews Are Done
I've tested everything from security cams and systems to smart bulbs and locks this year as CNET's smart home editor. Some things stay for at least a few weeks, so I can accurately judge battery life and weather resistance. But there are a few devices that I find myself still using even long after the review is done. These smart products surprised me by being particularly usable, offering better features than I expected, or filling just the right niche, so I can't let them go. Some are simply surprisingly fun to tinker with. Let me show you what I mean, and you can decide if any also belong in your home. Read more: Unlock Your Home's Potential with My Favorite Smart Home Apps Emporia smart plug Emporia's smart plug on a wood table. Tyler Lacoma/CNET The classic smart plug is a simple affair, a plug-in device that can automate and schedule on-off features for whatever you plug into it, like a lamp, coffeemaker or fountain. Emporia's model is a plug (15A) that goes a step beyond with its in-depth energy management functions, helping you save on electricity use. The smart plug even has a largely unique feature that lets you tailor on-off functions to match non-peak electricity usage hours. If your utility charges more for peak hour use, that's an easy way to save money on larger appliances. Plus, you can always go in and examine detailed charts of energy use by the hour, day, week or month. I also like how you can quickly sign in with logins like your Google account so setup is fairly effortless. I have been using this smart plug on a standalone heater, but it's time for a switch soon, possibly to an air purifier to see just how much electricity it's using throughout the day. The possibilities are everywhere with a plug like this. Aqara Climate Sensor W100 Aqara's sensor is portable, useful and has many automation options I'm still experimenting with. Tyler Lacoma/CNET I'm already a fan of satellite sensors for smart thermostats, which let the thermostat react to the temperature in what specific spot the sensor is placed. But this Aqara climate sensor does even more. Right out of the box it starts sensing temperature and humidity wherever you put it. That's great for checking air quality levels in spots where I'm curious about monitoring conditions, like the bedroom. The sensor is also Matter-ready for broad compatibility with Apple Home, Alexa and Google Home if you don't want to use the Aqara app. With compatible devices (like an Aqara thermostat or compatibility smart plug) it can also trigger certain automations, a feature I'm excited about and still experimenting with, working to connect it to my thermostat or supported smart plug humidifier. I'm also interested to see what information the sensor offers as seasons change, such as a room that gets particularly dry or too hot in the summer. Google Nest Cam floodlight The Google Nest floodlight cam is so useful I haven't bothered taking it down yet. Tyler Lacoma/CNET I originally started testing the Google Nest Cam floodlight model in conjunction with my review of the ADT Plus security platform. That testing and the ADT system are long gone, but I kept on using the Nest Cam floodlight in my backyard via the Google Home app (where I can also see my doorbell at the same time). The LED brightness was easy to manage (and very bright at higher settings), the magnetic base made the cam simple to angle in just the right way, and Google's free AI object detection remains one of my favorites. What's not to love? Well, fair warning -- you do need to wire the camera in, and wiring work on a ladder isn't exactly fun so prepare accordingly. Also, this is a particularly pricey high-end camera: You get what you pay for, but you may also think about waiting until a sale brings it down to around $200. Echo Show 8 (3rd gen) A smart display can do far more than just timers -- but it's so handy! Tyler Lacoma/CNET What makes a smart display any better than a smart speaker if you don't plan on watching many videos? For me, it's the on-display information I can check at a glance. In the kitchen, where my Echo Show 8 lives, that usually means checking recipe details or juggling multiple timers so I can see how much time is left with just a look, something a speaker just can't do. Also, those extra video features can grow on you. Watching a news roundup in the morning while grabbing tea or coffee can become an easy habit. The same is true of sports highlights, a music video you really want to see or a social media you have to see to get the joke. If you're more app-focused around the house, setting up an iPad also works well (it's just more expensive). SnapPower Guidelight 2 nightlight These outlets come in a variety of designs and shades to match your home, too. SnapPower When I first experimented with this auto-dimming nightlight, I assumed I'd go back to my old nightlight after I finished. But the Guidelight 2 kept on being a useful light. Built into the outlet cover itself, it frees up an outlet for use (for a laptop charger, in my case). The dimming function means the LED lights only turn on as it starts getting dark, and will brighten the darker the room grows. The original LED light was a little harsh, but there's a tiny switch to change it to a warmer color that's ideal for a home nightlight. I was left without any complaints. SwitchBot leak detector SwitchBot's leak detector is a little larger, but Wi-Fi ready and easy to place within minutes. Tyler Lacoma/CNET I've always been a fan of leak detectors that perform a quiet but serious service in homes and connect to apps for remote alerts so you know if there's something wrong even when you aren't at home. That's useful for any kind of flooding, but my SwitchBot version has a permanent place under the kitchen sink, where I've had leaking problems before. SwitchBot's model is a little bulky compared to some detectors, but it has an onboard siren as well as a Wi-Fi connection for the app, and it's simple to set up. Once it's in place, I don't have to worry about it until the worst happens -- or I get a "replace-battery" alert in a few years.

Foxconn will hold a press conference with TECO Electric on Wednesday
By Wen-Yee Lee TAIPEI (Reuters) -Taiwan's Foxconn said it will hold a press conference with Taiwanese industry motor maker TECO Electric & Machinery at 3:30 p.m. (0730 GMT) on Wednesday. The press conference comes after the Apple and Nvidia supplier halted trading in its shares late on Tuesday, citing a plan to release material information. TECO also halted trading in its shares. Taiwan's TECO Electric & Machinery Co is Taiwan's top industrial motor maker and ranks among the world's top five suppliers of small low-voltage and medium- to high-voltage motors. The company also produces motors for electric vehicles. TECO entered the data center infrastructure market earlier this year with the acquisition of an 80% stake in Malaysia's NCL Energy. In July, the company said it had secured major data center projects in the Malaysian states of Selangor and Johor Bahru. Foxconn has a big artificial intelligence server business and is actively expanding its electric vehicle business. It has also been seeking partnerships with automakers and the supply chain. Foxconn said its spokesperson James Wu would attend the meeting.

Investors in Magna Prima Berhad (KLSE:MAGNA) have seen returns of 29% over the past three years
By buying an index fund, you can roughly match the market return with ease. But if you buy good businesses at attractive prices, your portfolio returns could exceed the average market return. Just take a look at Magna Prima Berhad (KLSE:MAGNA), which is up 29%, over three years, soundly beating the market return of 5.6% (not including dividends). Let's take a look at the underlying fundamentals over the longer term, and see if they've been consistent with shareholders returns. We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free. Because Magna Prima Berhad made a loss in the last twelve months, we think the market is probably more focussed on revenue and revenue growth, at least for now. Shareholders of unprofitable companies usually desire strong revenue growth. That's because it's hard to be confident a company will be sustainable if revenue growth is negligible, and it never makes a profit. Over the last three years Magna Prima Berhad has grown its revenue at 66% annually. That's well above most pre-profit companies. While the compound gain of 9% per year over three years is pretty good, you might argue it doesn't fully reflect the strong revenue growth. So now might be the perfect time to put Magna Prima Berhad on your radar. A window of opportunity may reveal itself with time, if the business can trend to profitability. You can see below how earnings and revenue have changed over time (discover the exact values by clicking on the image). This free interactive report on Magna Prima Berhad's balance sheet strength is a great place to start, if you want to investigate the stock further. A Different Perspective We're pleased to report that Magna Prima Berhad shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 29% over one year. There's no doubt those recent returns are much better than the TSR loss of 4% per year over five years. We generally put more weight on the long term performance over the short term, but the recent improvement could hint at a (positive) inflection point within the business. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too. Case in point: We've spotted 1 warning sign for Magna Prima Berhad you should be aware of.
