Amazon is now offering a rare opportunity to save on the Philips Hue Smart Plug. Now that you have the second best price yet, you can score this smart home upgrade for $28.99 shipped. Normally selling for $35, it's less than $2 away from August's all-time low. This smart plug can be paired via Bluetooth or Zigbee and expands your Philips Hue setup with the ability to connect lights, bulbs, appliances and other equipment to the Siri, Alexa and Assistant ecosystems of your choice. It has a compact design that doesn't take up both sockets, and makes for a remarkable upgrade to your smart home as you benefit from the same reliability that Philips Hue equipment is known to deliver. Of course, you can also just go for the new Philips Hue Festavia lamps. This allows you to give the Christmas tree even more Christmas cheer thanks to multiple lighting modes, customizable effects and of course all the same benefits as the smart plug above. This lets you do more than just tell Siri to turn the tree on and off. We provide a full breakdown of the features included in our launch coverage. Having made our most recent list of the best smart plugs, the Philips Hue offering is certainly one of the attractive options on the market. But if the form factor isn't quite right for the specific use you have in mind, check out all the options we recommended earlier in our guide here. With different price points and form factors, we highlight quite a few different offerings for your smart home, whether you're familiar with Siri, Alexa, or Assistant.

Philips Hue Smart Plug features: This small, unassuming accessory turns any light – even one in which you can't fit a Hue bulb – into a smart light, so you can control it via the Hue app or voice. Use Bluetooth for direct light control or connect to the Hue Bridge to unlock more features. Subscribe to the Homekit.Blog YouTube channel for the latest videos, reviews and more!
