Nanoleaf makes a wide variety of smart lights, and its catalog is filled with highly customizable tiles, bulbs, and light strips to help bring a pop of color to your home. That catalog grew larger during CES 2025, and today it’s expanding once again with the arrival of the Pegboard Desk Dock — a 3-in-1 device offering solutions for storage, lighting, and charging.

Nanoleaf is known for its long list of premium smart lights, so it should come as no surprise that the Pegboard Desk Dock is overflowing with RGB lights. It’s built with a dual-faced lighting system, with one side offering an obstruction-free source of light and the other equipped with a lattice design that allows you to store accessories like controllers and headphones on a series of hangers. The Pegboard offers full support for the Nanoleaf mobile app, so you can display over 16 million colors. You can also create various scenes or pick from a prebuilt list for quick access to popular options.

Beyond lighting and a unique pegboard design for storage, the device is equipped with a USB-A and two USB-C ports, plus another USB-C power delivery port. That means you should have no problem keeping all your gadgets charged and ready for their next play session.

Other supported features include Screen Mirror to create lightshows that mimic your on-screen action, Orchestrator to sync with music, and support for Nanoleaf Premium. Note that some features require a subscription and a connection to the Nanoleaf Desktop app.

Despite all the cool features — and a striking design — the Nanoleaf Pegboard Desk Dock is reasonably priced at $60. If you’re seeking a unique way to organize your desktop, there’s not much else like it on the market.

Ultraloq showcases the first-ever ultra-wideband smart lock at CES 2025
Bolt Mission UWB + NFC installed on a white door.

Ultraloq showed off two smart locks at CES 2025 -- one of which is the first smart lock to ever offer ultra-wideband (UWB) support. The Ultraloq Bolt Mission UWB + NFC uses UWB technology to unlock automatically as you approach your front door. Similar functionality already exists on other smart locks, but UWB should allow the Ultraloq Bolt Mission to be more accurate than the competition.

The Bolt Mission uses technology similar to digital car keys, and Ultraloq says it can track the keyholder’s phone location with “centimeter-level” accuracy. As your phone gets closer to the front door, the Bolt Mission can be programmed to automatically unlock, giving you a hands-free way to get inside. Better yet, because the smart lock can detect both your distance and direction from the front door, it should prevent you from accidentally unlocking the smart lock while inside your home.

Ulticam shows off three AI-powered security cameras at CES 2025

Ulticam, the new security camera brand of Xthings, revealed a lineup of three AI-powered cameras at CES 2025. The Ulticam IQ, Ulticam IQ Floodlight, and Ulticam Dot offer not just cool AI capabilities, but also free seven-day cloud storage -- which could make them a solid choice for value-minded shoppers leery about signing up for monthly storage plans.

The Ulticam IQ and IQ Floodlight are the main attractions, as they're packed with features that should pose solid competition for the best smart security cameras from Arlo, Nest, and Ring. The duo uses edge AI to quickly identify people, vehicles, and packages without needing to upload the video for server-side processing. This onboard processing should result in faster performance -- it’s also great for privacy and security, as your footage doesn’t have to leave your device.

Home Depot expands Hubspace smart home lineup at CES 2025

Hubspace, Home Depot’s smart home platform, has seen impressive growth over the past few years, and that growth continued at CES 2025. Three new gadgets were revealed at the event, including a wireless power switch to control Hubspace products, a portable air conditioner, and a window-mounted air conditioner. All three are unique additions to the catalog -- and since there’s not much like them on the market, they should quickly become popular options in their respective niches.

The Hubspace Remote Switch is arguably the most useful of the three gadgets. Designed to look like a light switch, but with a removable remote controller, it works with select Hubspace light bulbs, fixtures, plugs, power sockets, surge protectors, and more. You’ll get standard on and off functions, plus access to brightness controls. Its sleek looks and versatility should make it a great choice for shoppers seeking an entry-level smart switch.
