There are huge savings to be made on my favorite affordable Philips Hue alternatives this Prime Day.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

I adore smart lights. Practical smart bulbs and lamps add so much convenience to my everyday life, while light strips can jazz up my decor in moments.

Smart lights can be expensive, though, especially when it comes to premium brands like Philips Hue. Cheaper prices don't always mean lower value, however, as I've found after testing many smart lights from Govee.
