Smart lights are the easiest and most affordable entry point to a smart home. Change colours, set schedules, automate with motion sensors — all from your phone or voice assistant. We've tested every popular smart light available on Amazon Australia.
All bulbs on this list use standard Australian E27 fittings. We've ranked them by overall value, considering brightness, colour accuracy, app quality, and ecosystem compatibility.
At just $18, the Tapo L535E offers 16 million colours, full Matter support, and no hub required. It connects directly to Wi-Fi and works with Alexa, Google Home, and Apple Home thanks to Matter. For most Australians, this is all the smart light you need.
Philips Hue is the gold standard of smart lighting with the richest ecosystem, most reliable automation, and widest compatibility. The 2-pack is decent value if you're building a Hue system. Requires the Hue Bridge for full features.
