Android phones have snuck into ecosystems far beyond simple messaging and apps. They now sit at the center of how we live. You can unlock your doors, start cars, run security cameras, and manage routines.
Controlling your lights from your phone or voice is also not uncommon. With a quick “Hey Google” or “Alexa”, your bedside or living room lamp can set the mood for any occasion. If you're looking to buy one, here are some great options.
Govee RGBIC floor lamp
$99.99
Let there be light. Tell Alexa what mood you want for your room, and watch your space come alive in seconds. Every section of the strip shines in different colors simultaneously, a feature that basic LED lamps can’t match. It’s powered by a 1000-lumen output and connects over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. Switch scenes or change colors with voice commands.
Meross smart table lamp
$39.99
Get this tall cylinder column light. The glow spreads evenly from top to bottom to project a hotel-style ambience rather than a harsh spot of light. It works with Apple HomeKit, Siri, Alexa, Google, and SmartThings. You can shift the white tone from 2700K to 6500K through touch, voice, or the app. Even if your internet goes down, it still works locally through the Meross app, which is rare at this price.
Amazon Echo Glow lamp
$29.99
Amazon’s own Echo Glow is the reason you’ll be looking twice at the simplest option on the shelf. It’s small, yet quick to respond. Once linked to an Echo device, Alexa will make light changes, set timers, trigger bedtime dimming, and do more. Kids can also use it as a nightlight, while adults use it for ambience. It just fits anywhere.
YHW floor lamp
$42.99
The YHW lamp gives you full smart control using Alexa, Google, Siri, the app, or the included remote. It supports millions of colors, 1–100% dimming, and adjustable white tones from 2700K to 6500K. The lamp also syncs with music, and can even be controlled from outside your home through WiFi. It uses a standard E26 smart LED bulb, has a stable iron base, a white linen shade for softer light, and stands at 58.3 inches tall.
Varicart smart floor lamp
$59.99
A full RGBCW smart bulb is already included with the Varicart floor lamp. You'll get color and white lighting, along with voice control straight out of the box. The bulb has 1200 lumens brightness, and shifts from warm 2700K to cool 6000K white. The BRmesh app unlocks remote, timer, music sync and custom scenes.
HiFree smart table lamp
$29.99
A smooth glowing half sphere that looks almost like a soft sunrise. Start and end your day with it automatically. push it up to a cooler 6500K tone, or switch to full RGB when you need focus and control all of this through Alexa. The LEDs are anti–blue light and flicker-free to keep your eyes comfortable at all times.
Make your home beautiful in and out
You've focused on what happens inside your home. Have you considered that the outside lighting is just as important? Set the tone before anyone even walks through your door and add safety to pathways and entrances. Outdoor lights will give your home a sense of presence even when you’re not there.
