Philips Hue White and Colour Ambiance Smart Light Bulb Starter Kit:was £134.99 now£98.99 at AmazonA great pack to get you started on your smart lighting journey, the Philips Hue Starter Kit is discounted by 27% at Amazon. The best price we’ve ever seen on this bundle was back in early 2022, when it plummeted briefly to £68, and fluctuated between sale prices of £80-90 throughout the summer. This deal price is on par with the lowest we’ve seen this year, meaning it’s not a deal to rush for, but rather one to watch.
Philips Hue White and Colour A67 - B22 smart bulb:was £64.99 now£45.49 at Philips HueThis brilliantly bright smart bulb is one of Hue’s simpler lights, with an equivalent brightness to a traditional 100W bulb.
