Nest Learning Thermostat (3rd Generation)

Deep dive

The 3rd Generation Nest Learning Thermostat remains the gold standard for smart climate control. Unlike traditional programmable thermostats that require manual input, Nest tracks your adjustments over time. After a few days, it creates a custom schedule—lowering the heat when you're asleep and turning it up just before you wake.

Key features include:

  • Auto-Schedule: No more confusing programming. It learns the temperatures you like and builds a schedule around you.
  • Home/Away Assist: It automatically turns itself down when you’re gone to avoid heating or cooling an empty home.
  • Remote Control: Change the temperature from your phone, tablet, or laptop via the Nest app.
  • Energy History: Check your phone to see how much energy you used and why.
