When it comes to smart lights, Philips Hue is a name that you see and hear everywhere because they're some of the coolest on the market and arguably the most popular. However, they can be quite expensive, especially once you get into colored bulbs. If you're looking for a less expensive alternative then check out these other awesome options.
Lowest cost per bulb
Cree A19 Connected LED Bulb
The daylight (5000K) dimmable Cree LED bulb is compatible with multiple platforms, including Amazon Echo, Wink, WeMo, and more. After setting up with a compatible hub ($40 sold separately), you can schedule your Cree bulbs to turn on and off at any specific time, adjust brightness, or even customize them to work while you're away from home as an extra security measure. Each Cree bulb is only 11.5 watts and is available for about $15 — not bad for its 22-year lifespan.
