The Qube Smart Bulb and Qube Smart Light Strip with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi have arrived to make smart home lighting more cost-effective. These color lights may have been “just another smart light” to add to the list of existing ones, if not for the significantly lower price Qube offers compared to similar products. Smart bulbs generally go for upwards of $50 or more, while lighting strips can be found for up to $30 a meter – Qube offers their bulb for $29 ($24 on their site as a pre-launch special), and people can pre-order the smart strip starter kit for $24 on Indigogo. Let’s see what the Qube Smart Bulb and Qube Smart Light Strip have to offer us.
The Qube Smart Bulb has some interesting features, but just the much lower price than any of the recognized name competition should be more than enough to get everyone’s attention.
We have been in touch with Qube, and they have promised a unit (hopefully two), once full volume shipments begin in March, so that we can offer a full product review of the smart lights.
Editor’s note:
We have received multiple complaints that folks that signed up for the crowd sourcing, of this product, have not received their lights. I reached out to Qube’s PR firm, who said they were no longer handling the account. They said they would try to get me a contact at Qube, but apparently were not able to do so.
