It also has a light ring on the bottom that glows different colors to indicate when Alexa is listening, when the microphone is muted or you have a shipping notification or message waiting.
Meanwhile, Philips Hue smart bulbs let you tweak the shade of white the bulb glows and can easily be controlled from your smartphone or by Alexa, letting you bring some simple automation to your home.
