Save £20 on this set of three Philips Hue bulbs that also support coloured lighting. These types of smart bulbs allow users to set their own room colours, and are well worth the extra cash if you want to personalise your setup. Linked here is the B22 fitting, but you can also find <a href="https://target.georiot.com/Proxy.ashx?tsid=8428&GR_URL=https%3A%2F%2Famazon.co.uk%2Fdp%2FB07XZTNK4Z%3Ftag%3Dhawk-future-21%26ascsubtag%3Dhawk-custom-tracking-21" data-link-merchant="Amazon UK"" data-link-merchant="Amazon UK"">E27 and even the usually more expensive <a href="https://target.georiot.com/Proxy.ashx?tsid=8428&GR_URL=https%3A%2F%2Famazon.co.uk%2Fdp%2FB07XZTGFW2%3Ftag%3Dhawk-future-21%26ascsubtag%3Dhawk-custom-tracking-21" data-link-merchant="Amazon UK"" data-link-merchant="Amazon UK"" data-link-merchant="Amazon UK"">GU10 fitting for this price. 

Gone are the days of expensive starter kits, as these bulbs don't require a hub to connect to your smart life. That means you can pick up the bulbs at these low prices and not have to worry about picking up another unit separately - they work straight out of the box with Alexa and Google Assistant. 

You'll be commanding your lights with your voice or smartphone sooner than ever, and if you pick up a set of coloured bulbs you can immediately start creating your dream set up. 

We've seen plenty of smart home items in these recent sales, but smart bulb deals (especially from Philips Hue) haven't been too prevalent over the past few weeks. 

However, the Philips Hue deals we're looking at today offer three bulbs for a great price, but we're also seeing some great savings on the cheaper LIFX Mini range as well - but be wary that you're only picking up one bulb at those prices. 

If you're not familiar with LIFX, it's a similar proposition to Philips Hue in terms of bulbs you can change colour or command on and off with your voice, but the range is less useful - that said, our editor has a set in his house and is pretty pleased with them.
