Many smart bulbs on the market have a high cost that can quickly add up when integrating them throughout a living space, so the Wyze Bulb has been positioned as an accessible alternative. Priced at just $7.99 each, the bulbs feature LED technology within as well as WiFi connectivity that will enable users to control the illuminators from their smartphone. The bulbs don't require a hub to be installed and are also compatible with voice assistant services like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant to allow for quick illumination changes using verbal commands.
The Wyze Bulb also works with Vacation Mode, which will automatically turn the lights on and off on a variable schedule to make it appear as though someone is home for enhanced security.
