**Smart Light Bulbs for $30 or Less**

If you're looking to get a lot of bulbs for cheap, Tapo's set is what I'd recommend. You'll get twice as many bulbs for about the same price as my earlier picks, but you'll have to put in more work for setup.

**Recommended Smart Light Bulbs**

* **Tapo Smart Light Bulbs (Four-Pack)**: $32
* **Wyze Bulb Color (Two-Pack)**: $27
* **WiZ Connected Smart Bulb (Two-Pack)**: $21

**Honorable Mentions**

* **LIFX 19 Bulb for $40 (Two-Pack)**
* **Philips Hue Smart Lights Starter Kit for $97 (Two Bulbs and a Bridge)**
* **Wyze Bulb White (Two-Pack)**: Not recommended due to lack of color options

**FAQs**

* Do I need a hub? No, but some bulbs require it for full features.
* What happens if my Wi-Fi goes down? The bulb will not be controllable until the Wi-Fi comes back on.
* Do I leave smart bulbs on all the time? Yes, to keep them connected.

**Testing Process**

WIRED tests smart light bulbs in the homes of our reviewers. We request samples from companies who send them to us for review, and they're tested with setup and daily use in the main rooms of our reviewer's home.
 
I gotta say, Tapo's 4-pack for $32 is a total steal πŸ€‘! Two times more bulbs than those Wyze guys for like half the price? It's a no-brainer! But, I gotta agree with WIRED on the lack of color options with that white bulb... basic, you know? And, don't even get me started on Philips Hue - $97 for 2 bulbs and a bridge? That's just crazy talk πŸ’Έ! If you're gonna splurge, go all in or not at all.
 
omg u guys r so gullible, think $30 or less is a good price 4 smart bulbs?? that's like buying a whole pack of dumb smart light bulbs lol just for $10 more u get twice as many Tapo's and they need more work to set up? sounds like scam 2 me, I mean who has time to mess around w/ setup 4 some cheap bulbs
 
omg i just saw this list of smart light bulbs and i'm like totally impressed by how affordable they are 🀯 i mean $30 or less is like a steal! i've been thinking of getting some for my place, but now i have so many options to choose from lol which one do you guys think is the best?
 
Ugh, I'm so done with smart lights that require a hub 🀯! Like, what even is the point of having a smart light if you need some separate device just to control it? And don't even get me started on the whole Wi-Fi thing... if my internet goes down, all I can do is sit there in darkness until it comes back on πŸ’‘. I mean, I know it's not that big of a deal for most people, but for someone like me who loves to work from home at night, it's super annoying. That being said, Tapo's set does look pretty good for the price - who wouldn't want 8 bulbs for under $40? πŸ’Έ
 
I just got one of those Wyze Bulb Colors and it's been a game changer 🀩. I know some people might think $27 is a bit steep but trust me, it's worth it. The color options are super cool and it's so easy to set up. Plus, the app is really user-friendly. I'm actually thinking of getting more of them for my living room.
 
Ugh, $30 or less? That sounds like a total scam πŸ’Έ. Who does that kind of math? I'm surprised they didn't include any bulbs that would actually last longer than 6 months 🀯. I mean, if you're gonna pay less, expect to pay more in the long run, right? The Tapo set might be a good deal, but it's still just gonna be a hassle to set up... again, because who doesn't love reading instructions for hours on end? 😴 Anyway, the Wyze bulb color looks decent, I guess πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ. Not sure about the WiZ connected smart bulb though, does that thing even exist? πŸ€”
 
Ugh, can't believe we're still settling for these cheap smart bulbs πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ. I mean, $30 or less is pretty affordable, but are we really getting what we pay for? The Tapo set looks like a good deal, but the setup process sounds kinda tedious...like, who has time for that when you just wanna flip a switch and relax πŸ™„. And don't even get me started on those Wyze bulbs...$27 for two is a pretty sweet deal, but do they really hold up in the long run? We need more quality control in this market, if you ask me πŸ’‘.
 
just got my hands on these smart light bulbs 🌟 and i gotta say, tapo's set is a steal at $32! two packs for that price is crazy 🀯 but i hear you gotta put in more work for setup lol... but honestly, wyze bulb color is a close second @ $27 per pack. anyone tried these yet? πŸ€”
 
πŸ€‘ I think Tapo Smart Light Bulbs are a total steal at $32 for 4 bulbs! I mean, you get more bang for your buck than with those other options, but I guess it's worth putting in some extra work to set them up πŸ€”. I've had them at home and they're pretty cool...I dunno if anyone really cares about the hub thing though πŸ™ƒ
 
omg can you believe these bulb deals?! $30 or less is crazy affordable! I just got 4 Tapo bulbs for like that price and I'm so stoked 🀩 but honestly, i had to spend way more time setting them up compared to the other brands on this list. Wyze is a solid choice tho, their color bulb is a great value for the price! and wow philips hue starter kit is HILARIOUSLY overpriced lol 97 bucks for two bulbs? no thanks πŸ˜‚
 
ugh $30 or less is like a dream come true 🀩 for anyone looking to upgrade their home lighting game. i mean, who doesn't love having all these smart light bulbs at their fingertips? but seriously, it's great that companies are offering affordable options like tapo's set and wyze bulb color. the only thing that keeps me from getting super excited is the setup process...like u said, it can be a bit of a pain. i just wish they came with more detailed instructions or tutorials. other than that tho, these smart light bulbs sound like a total game-changer for anyone looking to level up their home decor and tech game.
 
OMG I'm so down for affordable smart light bulbs 🀩! $30 or less is like, totally doable for me right now πŸ’Έ. Tapo's set seems like a good deal, but I'm kinda bummed they require more setup work πŸ™„. Can't we just plug and play sometimes? πŸ˜‚ But hey, getting twice as many bulbs for the same price is a win in my book! πŸ’‘ I'd totally consider picking up some of those Wyze Bulbs Color too - color options are everything to me right now 🎨. Ugh, why did Wyze B White not make it on the list? 😀 Anyway, can't wait to try out these smart bulbs and brighten up my space! πŸ’‘πŸ’«
 
I'm kinda surprised that none of these affordable options come with voice assistant support πŸ€”πŸ’‘. I mean, smart bulbs should at least be compatible with Alexa or Google Home right? It's a basic feature that many people expect from their smart devices. And yeah, the fact that you need to put in more work for setup on Tapo's set is kinda a bummer... I wish they'd simplify the process a bit πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ’».
 
omg I just saw the cutest video of a cat trying to "help" its human make breakfast 🐱🍳 and it completely cracked me up lol I swear, cats are like little furry ball of sass 🀣 anyway back to smart light bulbs... $30 or less? that's still kinda pricey for me tbh I mean I'd totally splurge on some of those Wyze Bulb Color ones tho πŸ€‘ they look so cool and colorful
 
I'm so stoked about these affordable smart light bulb options πŸ’‘πŸ‘. I mean, $30 or less? That's like finding a diamond in the rough! Tapo's four-pack set is looking like a solid choice for me, even if it does require some extra setup time πŸ•’οΈ. The Wyze Bulb Color (Two-Pack) is also catching my eye, and at $27, it's like getting two bulbs for the price of one πŸ’₯. I'm thinking these could be game-changers for people looking to upgrade their lighting without breaking the bank πŸ’Έ. Plus, WiZ Connected Smart Bulbs are another great option if you're on a budget πŸ€‘. Can't wait to see how they hold up in real life!
 
OMG, I'm so overpaying for my lights πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ. These Tapo bulbs are giving me LIFE at $32 for 4, that's like $8 each! The Wyze ones are also fire with only $27 for two. And the WiZ Connected Smart Bulb is a total steal at $21 for two. I mean, who needs color options though? Not me, tbh πŸ˜‚. I just need my lights to turn on and off without any drama. Anyone else tired of overpaying for their smart bulbs? πŸ™„
 
πŸ€” Just think about it, those smart light bulb deals are way too good to be true... I mean, $21 for a 2-pack? That's like they're trying to sell us on something that's just gonna end up controlling our homes πŸ πŸ’‘. And what's with the Wyze Bulb Color being disqualified because of lack of color options? Sounds like they're hiding something from us πŸ”. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for saving a buck, but is it really worth compromising our privacy and security like that? πŸ’ΈπŸ˜¬
 
Ugh I feel you, I just got those new Tapo Smart Light Bulbs and I'm like literally so excited to start decorating my living room but at the same time I'm worried that I might get frustrated with all the setup πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ... anyone else have to deal with that? But honestly, if it's twice as many bulbs for the same price, it seems like a solid deal πŸ’‘
 
I'm thinking of getting some smart lights for my place... $30 or less sounds like a great deal πŸ€‘. I've been looking into Tapo's set and it seems pretty good. Has anyone tried Wyze Bulb Color? I've heard mixed reviews, but the price is hard to beat πŸ’Έ. Do you guys think it's worth putting in more work for setup just to get twice as many bulbs for the same price? πŸ€” I'm not sure if I want to deal with that hassle...
