This Philips Hue Smart Bulb Starter Kit is on sale for $100 at Best Buy while supplies last

Philips Hue smart lighting products are generally regarded as the leader in the market, but they haven't always been the most affordable. However, right now you can get in on the Philips Hue ecosystem today for much less with $90 off this Philips Hue White and Color Ambiance starter kit at Best Buy. Not only does it include three multi-color smart bulbs and the required Hue Bridge, but you'll also receive a smart dimmer switch all for just $99.99.

Smart bulbs are often the first step people take when creating a smart home, and for good reason. These bulbs are intuitive, easy to use, and actually save you money over time since they use so little energy. Setup is extremely simple. Just screw in the light bulbs, download the Philips Hue app, connect the included Bridge to your Wi-Fi network, and you're good to go. Choose from millions of different colors plus a wide range of white shades, all with a few taps on your phone. For example, you could choose a fun color for party lighting, set your front porch lights to your team colors, or create the perfect environment for reading. You can also control the lights with your voice and something like Google Assistant or Alexa or set up schedules based on your daily routine with Apple HomeKit.

Once you inevitably get hooked on smart lighting, you'll want to check out Philips' broad array of options including bulbs, strip lights, outdoor lights, and much more. They're all able to be controlled using the same app and can even be grouped together so you can control them all as a set.

This starter kit ships for free at Best Buy, though you may be able to receive your order even faster by selecting free in-store pickup where available.
