I’ve been using Philips Hue smart bulbs in my home for a while now, and honestly, they’ve been one of my favorite smart home upgrades. If you’ve been thinking about trying them, this Prime Day deal is one of the best I’ve seen: a three-pack of the Philips Hue A19 White and Color Ambiance LED Smart Bulbs is on sale for $79.64, down from the usual $134.99.

These are the same bulbs I use every day. However, it’s important to know before you buy: This set doesn’t include the Hue Bridge — the hub that unlocks advanced features like automation, remote control, and full-color customization. That’s sold separately for around $60, though it’s also discounted for Prime Day at $46.99.

They’re easy to set up, work seamlessly with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit, and offer a ton of flexibility. I use them for everything — from warm, white lighting in the mornings to soft, colorful ambiance in the evenings. You can dial in millions of colors, adjust brightness levels, and even set routines to have them turn on or off automatically.

What I appreciate most is that they just work. I've had my four bulbs plus the TV light strip for the last four years. They’ve become a staple in my daily routine, whether I'm home alone or hosting get-togethers with my friends.
