When you’re setting up your smart home, you’ve got no shortage of options to choose from. And so long as everything you’re using supports Google Home, you’re largely free to mix and match smart switches, outlets, and lights across manufacturers. But for as much as we love having that kind of flexibility, there’s also a lot to be said for finding one company you really like, and going all-in on their ecosystem — that way, everything aligns not just in terms of functionality, but also in design, leading to a really cohesive look and feel. One of our favorite solutions like that is Philips Hue from Signify, and today we’re checking out the next phase of its smart lighting hardware.
Smart bulbs are a great way to modernize an existing lamp or fixture, but whether you’re adding lights somewhere new, or just interested in a fresh new look, Philips has tons of fully integrated smart lamps — and with modern LEDs, it’s not like you’ll be changing a lot of bulbs, anyway. To those existing offerings we can soon add the new Hue Tento lineup, as reported by Hueblog.
