Get ready for Christmas with the new Nanoleaf Smart Holiday String Lights. These lights are affordable and can be tuned to any sparkling, twinkling, or flashing colored pattern that you desire. With the ability to download hundreds of preset looks, make your own patterns, and control them with your voice or iPhone, you can create the perfect holiday decor for your tree.

Priced at $99 / £119.99, these lights are a major upgrade from standard string lights. They are HomeKit compatible and integrate with the Matter standard, making them compatible with almost every smart home system on the market.

The setup process is simple and quick, and the lights can be controlled through the Nanoleaf app. With 20m of lights divided into two strands, there are 250 programmable LEDs that offer a wide range of colors and patterns. The app includes presets as well as user-generated lighting patterns, and you can even create and save your own patterns.

The lights themselves are visually stunning and offer 16 million color shades and 250 lumens peak brightness. They are also IP44 rated for outdoor use and can withstand temperatures from -15c to 40c. The only downsides are occasional Wi-Fi connectivity issues and the lack of cable management and clear cabling options.

In comparison to the Philips Hue Festavia, the Nanoleaf Smart Holiday String Lights offer similar features at a fraction of the cost, making them a great option for anyone looking for smart holiday lights.

Overall, the Nanoleaf Smart Holiday String Lights are a fantastic choice for anyone seeking full customization control over their festive decorations without breaking the bank. Whether you're a HomeKit enthusiast or an Alexa user, these lights will add a touch of magic to your holiday decor.
