I installed a Nest so I could add a remote temperature sensor in my bedroom. I configured the nest to heat based on the bedroom temperature at night and the living room (where the thermostat was) during the day.
Before the Nest, the bedroom would get way too hot at night because it was better insulated than the living room, making it difficult to sleep. Afterwards this was no longer a problem. Saved a bunch of energy too.
Other "smart" tech: remote controlled outlets, later swapped for hue bulbs, let me flip all four of my living room lamps on from the entry way OR the hallway. Before, there was no switch at the entry way leaving me fumbling through the dark for the wall switch at the other side of the room to turn the ceiling light on. Then I'd have to turn the floor/table lamps on/off individually.
