Here are the brightest (see what we did there?) bulbs you can get in 2021.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Smart_Bulbs_of_2021\"><\/span>Best Smart Bulbs of 2021<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Why you should trust us:<\/strong> Our trusted experts use a lifetime of experience to pick the best products. Learn more about our editorial process.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_Look_For_in_a_Smart_Bulb\"><\/span>What to Look For in a Smart Bulb<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Among home gadgets you can control with your phone, smart light bulbs have been around for a while. Fortunately, this means that they\u2019ve not only gotten steadily more advanced, but more affordable as well.<\/p>\n<p>There are three main considerations when shopping for smart bulbs. The first is whether the bulb produces colored or white light\u2014or both. In <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>, white-only lights will be a bit cheaper than colored lights, but both styles are generally tuneable through a range of light temperatures and brightness levels.<\/p>\n<p>The second consideration has to do with the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/366450\/what-kind-of-smart-lights-should-you-buy\/\">receptivity built into the bulb. All of the bulbs on our list connect via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, a hub, or some combination of all three. If a bulb connects only via Bluetooth, it\u2019s important to remember that you\u2019ll only be able to control it when you are within a certain range. On the other hand, with Wi-Fi-connected or hub bulbs, you can have access to your lighting no matter where you are through your smartphone.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, you\u2019ll also want to consider platforms. These days, most\u2014but not all\u2013smart bulbs connect to the major voice assistant platforms: Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">App<\/a>le HomeKit. If you have one of these ecosystems already established in your home, you\u2019ll want to make sure the bulbs you choose mesh well with it.<\/p>\n<p>You should also be aware that smart bulbs can give you a great degree of control over your room\u2019s ambiance. If you want the ability to turn lamps on and off either when you want or according to a certain schedule, you could consider purchasing a\u00a0smart plug.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <strong><em>What Is a Smart Plug?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_Smart_Bulb_Overall_Philips_Hue\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"moka_anchor_bestoverall\">Best Smart Bulb Overall: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Philips-Hue-Bluetooth-compatible-Assistant\/dp\/B07QWB3H1Q?tag=hotoge-20\">Philips Hue<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Philips-Hue-Bluetooth-compatible-Assistant\/dp\/B07QWB3H1Q?tag=hotoge-20\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-737834 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/best-smart-bulb-philips-1.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"philips hue box on pink and yellow background\" width=\"650\" height=\"366\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"greybox_callout\">\n<div class=\"procon_list\">\n<div>\nPros<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"greentext\">\u2713<\/span> Bright whites and vivid colors that are almost infinitely adjustable<\/li>\n<li><span class=\"greentext\">\u2713<\/span> Integrates with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div>\nCons<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"maroontext\">\u2717<\/span> Bulbs are among the most expensive<\/li>\n<li><span class=\"maroontext\">\u2717<\/span> Hub is required to take full advantage of ecosystem<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>One of the first entrants to the smart bulb arena, Philips has always led in the space with a wide range of lighting products that are reliable, easy to set up, bright, and vivid.

It also allows you to sync your lights to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">movies<\/a>, gaming, or music, and it provides the ability to simulate your presence when you are away by turning lights on and off across your home. While the hub is an additional cost, you can often buy it in a package with bulbs that pretty much zeros out the expense.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of cost, Philips Hue bulbs are one of the most expensive on the market, but for creating an entire smart lighting system, there is no better option. That being said, if you just want to dabble with smart lighting\u2014rather than bathing your home in it\u2014our budget pick might suit you better.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-box\">\nBest Overall<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-img \">\n<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" aria-hidden=\"true\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"presentation\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07R1NLP7P?tag=hotoge-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" onclick=\"fbq('track', 'Buy Button'); if (fb_t_convert){fb_t_convert();}\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/4194aptmtxL._SL160_.jpg\" height=\"147px\" alt=\"\" role=\"presentation\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"product-title \">\n<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Shop for Philips Hue White and Color Ambiance\" aria-label=\"Shop for Philips Hue White and Color Ambiance\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07R1NLP7P?tag=hotoge-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" onclick=\"fbq('track', 'Buy Button'); if (fb_t_convert){fb_t_convert();}\"><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Philips_Hue_White_and_Color_Ambiance\"><\/span>Philips Hue White and Color Ambiance<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"product-features\">Offering everything from tunable white lights to colored lights that can cycle through 16 million colors, these bulbs earn our top spot for quality, product range, and flexibility.

Because Wyze is moving into the smart home security market, starting with a few of its smart bulbs is a great way to begin to assemble the gear you\u2019d need to make your entire home smarter and safer.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-box\">\nBest Budget<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-img \">\n<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" aria-hidden=\"true\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"presentation\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07RLKNFCN?tag=hotoge-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" onclick=\"fbq('track', 'Buy Button'); if (fb_t_convert){fb_t_convert();}\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/31XliFVuVDL._SL160_.jpg\" height=\"147px\" alt=\"\" role=\"presentation\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"product-title \">\n<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Shop for Wyze Bulb\" aria-label=\"Shop for Wyze Bulb\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07RLKNFCN?tag=hotoge-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" onclick=\"fbq('track', 'Buy Button'); if (fb_t_convert){fb_t_convert();}\"><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wyze_Bulb\"><\/span>Wyze Bulb<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"product-features\"> Buying a 4-pack of these well-reviewed smart bulbs brings the price for each below $10.

Using Bluetooth, it\u2019s possible to easily set up and control these bulbs right from your iPhone while you are at home.

Each bulb contains 2MB of flash memory along with its own chip that connects to the cloud not only to save user settings, but also to check for software and firmware releases so that the bulbs are constantly kept up-to-date. Beyond that, Wiz leverages Wi-Fi <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> to allow users to set different permissions.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you can pre-program different lighting settings and schedules using the Wiz app. Then, you can allow certain members of your family to control the lights while they are at home without allowing them permission to alter settings permanently.

They also have built-in microphones that let the colors flash to the beat of your music have sunrise\/sunset options that make the bulbs dim and brighten with the pattern of the sun.<\/p>\n<p>One interesting feature of the Govee bulbs is that, using the app, you can pick any color from any photo on your phone and the bulb will beam out matching light. Plus, because these bulbs all work over Bluetooth, there is no hub needed.<\/p>\n<p>Combine these features with a price point under $15, and it becomes clear why we chose these as our best Bluetooth pick.
