My price barrier for smart devices is whether I would scream if I dropped it in the toilet and ruined it. $5 smart outlet? Sure I'll put my lamps on those. $25 streaming dongle? All right, that'll last at least five years before Netflix decides it isn't secure enough.
$500 television? Hell no. $1200 in home automation and surveillance linked to a central hub? I wasn't dropped on my head as a child, so no.
