As decorating homes becomes a priority once again, Nanoleaf smart lights are a popular Black Friday target. The manufacturer is discounting their Matter Smart Holiday String Lights just in time for the holidays. For buyers looking for a versatile LED lightstrip to install almost anywhere, the Matter Smart Multicolor Lightstrip is also on sale. Finally, gamers can spruce up their setups with Shapes Mini Triangles, seeing a historically low price. Smart light technology is constantly changing, so which option will work best in your home?

The Best Smart Lights in 2024
Smart lights are easy to control and add lots of fun to any living or gaming room. With so many options, which lights should you purchase first?
The majority of LED lights used during the festive season are relatively inexpensive. However, they often lack modern conveniences like wireless control or the ability to react to music. The 250 LED bulbs on the Nanoleaf Smart Holiday String Lights stand out for their brightness and ability to display smooth animations. The string lights are just over 65 feet long, but there are trimmable points to achieve an exact fit when wrapping around indoor trees or outdoor decks. Nanoleaf also has a 79-foot 300 LED bulb version on sale ahead of Black Friday for an even more vibrant display.

My Smart Holiday String Lights review found that they effectively brought the best Nanoleaf features to more parts of a home. Those capabilities include scheduling and elaborate preset and user-created scenes. The lights respond quickly to commands, and their build quality is far superior to most holiday lights. While the Nanoleaf lights are still pricier than budget alternatives, they are significantly cheaper than the Philips Hue Festavia String Lights.
Besides smart bulbs, LED lightstrips are among the more common smart lights found in homes. The Nanoleaf Matter Smart Multicolor Lightstrip adds ambient lighting or essential illumination to hallways, kitchens, or gaming rooms. Because the lights use an addressable RGBIC chip, multiple colors can simultaneously shine on the same segment. Like the Holiday String Lights, this lightstrip supports Matter, which allows them to communicate with nearly every smart home ecosystem through app touch control or voice commands.
Gamers will naturally be drawn to the pre-Black Friday buying opportunity on the Shapes Mini Triangles. Wall panel lights adorn walls in gaming rooms, making them seem more inviting and stylish than drab offices or bedrooms. Shapes are the best way to experience how Nanoleaf lights can sync with RGB keyboards and mice from brands like Razer and Corsair. Although they ship with a physical controller, most owners prefer to control them with voice commands, desktop software, or mobile apps.
Another featured Nanoleaf deal is on the Mini Triangles 9-piece Smarter Kit. However, these smaller panels interconnect with the larger Shapes we reviewed, which include full-sized triangles and hexagons. The mini triangles even work with the new Nanoleaf Blocks, so the design possibilities are nearly endless. Regardless of the configuration, the panels are installed easily with double-sided tape pads and can be reconfigured as budgets grow.
We have highlighted some of the best deals, but Nanoleaf’s Black Friday plans go well beyond these three smart lights. Their Govee rival also traditionally slashes the prices of its many wall panels and lightstrips around this time of year. Game Rant will let readers know about all the affordable ways to modernize home lighting.
