![]() They’re incredibly bright and the colors are fantastic. My partner and I ditched our first smart bulbs for LIFX’s 1100 Lumen E26 bulbs, and we immediately fell in love. Straight away, I need to be honest - I’ve been using LIFX lights for years. Credit: RJ Andersen / Mashable First impressions The LIFX lineup includes color-changing bulbs, disinfecting bulbs, and more. Marketed as “a light so smart we taught it how to clean,” the LIFX Clean bulbs use high-energy visible light (also known as HEV) to clean and disinfect surfaces at the click of a button. The company offers a whole range of different bulb types: including traditional, color-changing E26 bulbs - the kind that fit in most “traditional” light fixtures - as well as LED lightstrips, candle-style bulbs, and even their newest offering, LIFX Clean. LIFX (pronounced LIFE-ex) offers a selection of WiFi-enabled smart lighting that rivals larger, well-known brands like Philips Hue. So is LIFX one of those brands? Here’s what you need to know. We loved the ability to change the lights to suit our mood, but we quickly realized that - when it comes to smart lighting - the brand you choose definitely matters. However, it was obvious that there was potential there. My partner purchased a random brand from Amazon, and the bulbs were finicky, hard to set up, and barely produced any light. Weirdly enough, my first foray into smart lighting sucked. ![]() Originally, I definitely hesitated - I’ve always been someone who didn’t really see the point of going full “ smart home” (because do you really need everything to be WiFi-enabled?) - but once I tried my first smart bulb, I was absolutely hooked. I’m not gonna lie, I’ve been a fan of smart bulbs for a few years. A hand with long fingernails holding a smart light bulb
