Wi-Fi Smart Light Bulbs, No Hub Needed.

Your Lamps. Billions of Colors.

The easiest smart home upgrade you can make. LIFX smart light bulbs fit the fittings you already have (A19, A21, BR30, T10, and Candelabra) and connect directly to your home Wi-Fi. No hub. No rewiring. Just screw them in and open the app.

Smart Lights Buying Guide

Shape. A19 is the classic household bulb for table lamps and most fixtures. BR30 is the wider flood bulb made for recessed ceiling cans. Candelabra bulbs suit chandeliers, sconces and decorative fixtures with a small base.

Brightness. Compare lumens, not watts. Around 800 lumens replaces a 60W bulb. For larger rooms or high ceilings, look for 1100 lumens or more.

Color or white. Color bulbs give you billions of shades plus tunable white, so one bulb covers movie night, focus time and everything in between. White bulbs tune from warm to cool daylight at a lower price, ideal for kitchens, offices and hallways.

Matter. Matter-enabled LIFX bulbs work with Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa and SmartThings, so you're never locked into one platform. Every LIFX bulb connects straight to Wi-Fi, with no hub required.

FAQs

Do LIFX smart bulbs need a hub?

Nope. LIFX bulbs connect directly to your home Wi-Fi with no bridge or extra hardware. Screw one in, download the app, and you're controlling your lights in minutes.

What bulb shapes and fittings are available?

LIFX covers the most common fittings including A19, A21, BR30, and GU10. Whether you're replacing a standard lamp bulb or a recessed downlight, there's a LIFX bulb that fits.

Are they dimmable?

Yes, fully dimmable from 100% blazing bright down to a barely-there glow. No special dimmer switch required. Control it all from the app or your voice assistant.

How long do LIFX bulbs last?

Up to 25,000 hours. That's years of daily use before you even think about a replacement, way longer than traditional bulbs.

Can I use them without the app?

Your existing wall switch still works for basic on/off. To unlock colors, schedules, and smart features you'll want the free LIFX app (iOS and Android) or a voice assistant like Alexa or Google Home.

Do they work with smart home platforms?

Yes. Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, and Samsung SmartThings all work natively with LIFX bulbs. Set routines, group rooms, and control everything from one ecosystem.

What is the point of smart light bulbs?

Smart light bulbs give you control that standard bulbs can't. Dim, change color, or set schedules from your phone or voice, build scenes for movie nights or mornings, and turn lights off when you're away. LIFX bulbs connect directly to Wi-Fi with no hub, so you get convenience, ambiance, and efficiency in one simple upgrade.

Can you put smart bulbs in any lamp?

Almost any lamp, as long as the base and size match. LIFX bulbs come in A19, A21, BR30, T10, and Candelabra fittings, so check your socket type first. Make sure the lamp isn't enclosed in a way that traps heat, and keep the lamp's switch on so the bulb stays powered and connected.

What are the disadvantages of smart bulbs?

Smart bulbs cost more upfront than standard bulbs, though LED efficiency and long life help offset that. They also need a working Wi-Fi network for app and voice control, and they must stay powered, so keep wall switches on. Setup takes a few minutes per bulb, but LIFX needs no hub.

Do smart light bulbs raise the electric bill?

Usually not. Smart light bulbs are LEDs, which use far less energy than incandescent bulbs, and the small amount of standby power for Wi-Fi is well outweighed by those savings. Dimming, schedules, and automations that switch lights off when you leave can lower your bill further.
