Wyze Bulb Color

Compiled by SmartHomeWorkflow Research · Wyze · Smart Lighting · ~$24.98 ($24.98 is the 2-pack — the smallest configuration Wyze's own store sells on 2026-08-10; no single bulb is offered. That works out to $12.49 per bulb, with 4-pack ($44.44) and 6-pack ($65.99) bringing the per-bulb figure down further. The previous $13 described a single-bulb SKU that is no longer sold, so the headline figure is now the least you can actually spend (the cheapest-buyable-variant convention, as on the Dreo 524S). At time of research — never treated as a live price.)

Compatibility

Protocols: WIFI^[1][3]

What it can do^[12]

Listed capabilities are what we could establish from vendor documentation. An ability missing here is unestablished — not necessarily absent.

Subscription reality^[2]

✓ Works without a subscription: Yes.

Vendor account required: Not established — we have not sourced this yet.

Maintenance reality^[2]

• Works without the internet: Not established — we have not sourced this yet. It does not mean the product fails without the internet.
• Cloud-dependent control; Wyze had security incidents in 2024 — weigh for camera-adjacent trust
• Security updates: Wyze publishes no security-update support date for this model. That is a gap in what the manufacturer has published, not evidence either way — some makers declare a support period and some say nothing at all.^[10]

The catch

No Matter, no HomeKit, cloud-dependent — fine in Alexa/Google homes, a dead end elsewhere.

Who it's for

Alexa or Google households on the tightest budget.
