Emerson Sensi thermostats answer Google Assistant commands
Emerson's Sensi Touch Wi-Fi Thermostat and Sensi Wi-Fi Thermostat now respond to queries from Google Assistant.
Your Sensi smart thermostat now works with Google Assistant.
Thermostat manufacturer Emerson on Monday added support for Google Assistant voice control to its Sensi Touch Wi-Fi Thermostat and Sensi Wi-Fi Thermostat.
Adding Google Assistant to the mix rounds out Emerson's smart platform offerings, which already include Amazon Alexa , Apple HomeKit and Wink .
We liked Emerson's Sensi Touch Wi-Fi Thermostat when we reviewed it back in 2016. At the time, the smart thermostat only worked with Alexa, but its comparatively low price ($130, about £95/AU$170 converted) set it apart from the rest, if you could get past its basic, somewhat outdated design.
The $170 (£120/AU$225) Sensi Touch Wi-Fi Thermostat looks nicer, but offers the same general features, including remote access through a related Android/iOS app.
Emerson isn't the only thermostat company to offer Alexa, Google Assistant and HomeKit support. Select Ecobee and Honeywell models also work with all three smart home platforms.
