Nyrius Smart Outlet review

There are few cheaper or easier ways to make your home a little smarter than the Nyrius Smart Outlet.

If you just want a way to reliably turn on and off a couple of devices in your home, the Nyrius Smart Outlet might work for you, provided you’re not bothered by the Bluetooth limitations. Unlike the iSmartAlarm Smart Switch, you don’t need a whole...

Nyrius Smart Outlet review: Bluetooth betrays this smart outlet

The Nyrius Smart Outlet suffers from spotty connectivity, clunky design and broken features.

Review: Nyrius is an effective Smart Outlet for dumb devices

The Internet of Things might be driving us further toward smarter devices, but there are still plenty of 20th Century analog appliances out there that won't be immediately cast aside. The Nyrius Smart Outlet could be the interim solution, as it applies...

Users can control up to three Smart Outlets via iOS and up to seven via Android. Nyrius sent us one Smart Outlet so we could only test a single outlet, but we did use it on an extension cord with more than one device plugged into that, to see how it...
