These smart bulbs are one of the best purchases I have made
The world of home automation offers a wide variety of devices, gadgets and accessories that allow you to control various aspects of the home. From changing the setting to lowering the blinds, turning on appliances or regulating the thermostat, among others. And within the field of home automation the most popular accessories are the smart bulbs.
With smart bulbs you can change the color of the light and control its operation both from applications and from shortcuts or through Siri. I bought several smart bulbs a long time ago and I use them daily, it is one of the best purchases you will make.
In this guide I will recommend the best smart bulbs on offer. Cheaper options and others of higher quality. We’ll see!
Philips Hue (7W)
This LED bulb from the Philips Hue line has an E27 format and a power of 7 W. It is compatible with Alexa and Google Home. Normally its price is around 50 euros, but it is on sale for a limited time with a 12% discount and a price of 39.49 euros. It is the highest quality option on the market but it does not have colors.
Philips Hue (10.5W)
While the previous smart bulb only had one-color light, this option has colored light. You can change the light blue, red, green… It also has an E27 format but a higher power of up to 10.5 W. The complete pack, which includes the Philips Hue bridge, is on sale and low from 131 euros to 106 euros.
Lepro Bulb
If you are looking for a slightly cheaper alternative, this is your bulb. It is true that it does not have the same quality or the same integration in iOS and Android, but it fulfills its purpose and in this case for only 10 euros. It has an E27 format socket and 9 W of power.
Unisun LED Bulbs
This pack of two units offers two colored smart bulbs with 6 W of power and in E14 format. It is a socket format a little smaller than the E27 format, which is usually the most common. They have a remote control, so you won’t be able to control them from your mobile phone but it is a very cheap option.
TP-Link Tapo
Bulbs from the manufacturer Tapo are among the most popular on the market. In fact, they are Amazon’s best-selling smart bulbs. Its price has dropped from 18.35 euros to 14.99 euros and they have E27 format. Super recommended.
Philips Hue portable lamp
Finally, I recommend a product that is a little more different. A small portable wireless lamp with which you can bring light to any corner of your home. It has white light and colored light, and you can control it from the official Philips application. It is also compatible with Google Home and Alexa. Its autonomy lasts up to 48 hours of light. It will last you about a week before recharging its battery.
Many alternatives, many smart bulbs and only one choice. Which one do you prefer? Personally I recommend the TP-Link bulb from Tapo, they are very reliable and their price is not too high.
