AqaraDirect (100% positive feedback) via Amazon is currently offering its HomeKit Starter Set at $99.99 shipped. Down from $130, today’s offer saves you 24%, comes within $3 of the all-time low, and is the third-best we’ve seen to date. Aqara’s smart home system works with HomeKit out of the box and this starter kit is a great way to outfit your house. Included here is the necessary hub as well as a smart plug, door and window sensor, motion detector, and a mini switch. Plus, thanks to being centered around Zigbee connectivity, you’re looking at a more reliable setup than typical devices based around Wi-Fi and the like. Rated 4.3/5 stars and you can dive into our launch coverage for some additional information.
A more affordable way to kickstart your Siri smart home would be grabbing the Wemo Smart Plug for $18 at Amazon. While you won’t get the same ecosystem support as provided by the Aqara starter kit, it’s certainly a lower-cost way to enjoy the perks of a voice-activated lamp or appliance.
Whether you’re looking to outfit your front door with Ultraloq’s UL3 Smart Lock, or expand your Assistant-enabled setup with a Nest Mini speaker, our Smart Home guide is filled with discounts to check out.
