I bought my first smart light bulb well over a decade ago now. Over time, I’ve tried countless brands of smart bulbs, smart plugs to control lamps, and have even swapped out light switches for smart ones. Now my home has a mixture of all those things, and I would have it no other way. I’ve generally leaned on Philips Hue for smart bulbs because they’re one of the most platform-agnostic solutions out there, but the arrival of Matter has changed the game.

Linkind Matter Edison-style smart bulbs from $12.50 each: 4-pack $51, more from $12.50
We are now tracking some deals via the official Linkind Amazon storefront on the brand’s Edison-style smart light bulbs. First up, we have the 4-pack of ST58 Matter-enabled Smart Edison Bulbs for $50.99 shipped after clipping the on-page coupon. Regularly between $60 and as much as $75 over the last couple months, this is the lowest price we can find at just over $12.50 per bulb. While we tend to feature loads of standard multi-color smart bulbs around here, scoring some of the Edison-style variants at a price like this doesn’t pop up quite as often. You are paying a touch more for the Matter support on this set, but we also have some intelligent Edison bulbs without it for less down below as well.
