    Finding the Best Smart Light Bulb

    Finding the Best Smart Light Bulb

    Source： 27 May 2017
    Light Bulb Smart Light Bulb

    The Philips Hue is the most advanced smart light bulb, with excellent usability and extensive support for smart home systems.

     

    Light bulbs are simple devices. You screw a light bulb into a fixture, flip the switch, and you have light. Smart light bulbs do a lot more. They can deliver all colors of light, simulating anything from bright daylight to warm candlelight or even pink or blue for parties. You can control them wirelessly, from across the room or the world, and they can take direction from smart home devices like motion sensors and smart locks.

     

    When choosing smart light bulbs for testing, we selected models that can produce any color of light. The bulbs all enclose the technology, so they look similar to traditional incandescent bulbs and fit seamlessly in with any decor. The bulbs can be controlled wirelessly, either via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, and they all work with other smart home devices. And to further narrow the field, we selected bulbs that are highly rated and widely available.

     

    In our test group were the Philips Hue 3rd Generation ($200 on Amazon for the starter kit with 3 bulbs), Osram Lightify ($54 on Amazon for the starter kit with one bulb), the Ilumi ($50 on Amazon) and the Elgato Avea ($49 on Amazon). Shining brightest among them was the Philips Hue but not by a huge margin. With a well-designed app and smart home integration, the Hue inched ahead of the rest of the pack. Its excellent build quality, consistent performance and integration options for voice or hub control illustrated how effective a smart bulb setup can be.

     

    How we tested

    We tested our top smart bulb choices over four months in two homes using both day-to-day routines as well as putting them through their paces for guests. The apps that manage and control the bulbs were a critical part of the review process.

     

    Design

    All the bulbs we reviewed screwed into standard light fixtures and could be turned on or off from a light switch or remotely using an app. To turn them on and off with the app, you’ll have to get used to leaving the wall switch on to provide a power source. That does require a tricky change of habit, but that’s made easier with smart home integration, which we’ll touch on later.

     

    The Hue, Lightify and Ilumi are each 60-watt equivalent bulbs capable of producing 800 lumens at peak brightness. The Avea follows at only 7 watts and 430 lumens. Their color ranges are all similar, though the current third-generation Hue bulbs can produce deeper blues and greens than previous iterations. All bulbs use the common A19 socket.
