Smart devices are handy and convenient, but they’re only half of the smart home puzzle. The other half is connecting and controlling them, and all you need is a good smart hub to get your smart home up and running. Today, you can get the Samsung SmartThings third-generation hub on Amazon for an all-time low price of $55.33 with an on-page coupon, down from a list price of $70.
This hub works with a huge list of smart devices, so you’ll be able to connect both existing and new devices with one sleek hub. Even better, it connects wirelessly, so you won’t need an ethernet cable to get it up and running. In our 4-star review, we wrote, “The SmartThings Hub remains the most DIY-friendly path to a fully featured smart home.” And once you’ve set it up, you’ll be able to use either the connected app or Alexa to control all your smart devices.
We gave this smart hub 4 stars out of 5 as well as an Editors’ Choice award, noting its wireless connectivity, user-friendly app, and attractive design as reasons to buy. It’s currently our top choice for Best All-Around Smart Home System.
