Top 5 - Smart Homes in Dubai

Global tech giants from Alibaba and Amazon to Microsoft and Oracle will congregate in Dubai next week for one of the world’s leading technology events — GITEX GLOBAL.

Launched in 1980, the exhibition’s 2025 edition runs from 13th to 17th October and will feature over 5000 brands from 170 countries. Visitors from the Middle East, Asia, Europe and the Americas are expected, underscoring Dubai’s status as a rare global meeting point for East and West. This year’s event will include a heavy emphasis on artificial intelligence, and its myriad applications in sustainability, finance, healthcare, governance and more.

In honour of GITEX, we take a look at five residences that incorporate state-of-the-art home automation and supporting technology to enhance resident convenience:
