Smart-anything is just a dumb novelty design because rich techie users are about as wowed as dangling plastic toy keys infront of an infant. Nearly nothing is anymore useful when it becomes 'smart' and largely gets that title because of it's capability to connect to the internet and just become another app for data-farming services to nag you over.
These things are just also another way to rob people more money because they're going to have more models, the company is going to talk down to you for being filthy and not upgrading. You're going to spend a lot of time dealing with a lot of variables that people already have presented for having a smart device and this is where the argument of "old is always better" comes into play.
