SmartHome products under 100 euros – Lidl Christmas lights
Admittedly, the Christmas days have just passed and you may have cleaned up the Christmas tree again. For the coming year we can strongly recommend the 200 RGB LED lighting chain of 49 euros. These smart Christmas lights turn the Christmas tree into a real part of the smart home. Via the app you select colors and scenes and you can also adjust a few things yourself. Please note that you actually need the Lidl Hub for all functionalities. You can connect this Zigbee lighting chain via Philips Hue, but it will then work as a LED strip. And you don’t want that.
Amazon Echo Dot 4
Have nothing to do with the Google Assistant and the Google Home speakers? Amazon Alexa may be something for you. Amazon also has a similar small speaker in its range, but in the form of a small ball. You can do almost the same as with the Google Nest Mini, but on the Amazon platform with the Alexa voice assistant. Note: Alexa does not speak Dutch yet! So you will have to do it with English or German. You buy the Echo Dot 4 for the same price, namely 59 euros.
