Emerson introduced its SmartVoice smart home lineup at CES 2026—fans, heaters, plugs/power strips, and air fryers—that use built-in microphones and speakers for on-device voice control with wake words and preset commands, removing the need for Wi‑Fi or a hub; the air fryers support over 1,000 commands (including 100 cooking presets) while other devices handle over 40, and the reviewer praised the simplicity for basic appliances while wishing for optional Bluetooth app control for added convenience.
