features a sleeker design and is built using recycled plastic. To help you save energy, the smart thermostat can suggest pre-set temperatures that will help you maintain the balance between comfort and efficiency.

series phones, the new Nest thermostat uses Soli technology for motion sensing. With the help of Soli technology and your phone's location, it can determine if you have left the house and set an Eco temperature to ensure you don't waste energy cooling or heating your house when you're not there. Google claims the ENERGY STAR certified smart thermostat can help you save up to 12 percent on heating bills and 15 percent on cooling bills.

In addition to helping you save energy, the Nest Thermostat can even detect potential issues with your heating and cooling system, thanks to the HVAC monitoring feature. If it detects something isn't right with your HVAC system, it will send you an alert via the Google Home app or email. You can then schedule a visit from a technician through Handy to get the issue fixed. Google says the feature will be rolled out to all eligible Nest thermostats in the U.S. and Canada later this month.

The new Nest Thermostat will be available to pre-order in the U.S. and Canada starting today through the Google Store and select retailers such as Best Buy and Home Depot. It will be available for $130 in the U.S. and $180 in Canada. The smart thermostat comes in four attractive colors: Snow, Charcoal, Fog, and Sand.
