Amazon Smart Plug: Is the Wi-Fi socket worth it?

by Pramith

The Amazon Smart Plug is a wireless socket. It allows you to control all plugged-in devices via Alexa.

Amazon Smart Plug: For whom it is worthwhile

The Amazon Smart Plug should be a relief for many households.

  • Because the Wi-Fi socket gives you the option of switching your electrical appliances, such as the coffee machine, or lights on and off while on the move.
  • Control it all easily via your Alexa app.
  • The setup and control is very simple, so that even people who are not so tech-savvy can benefit from it.
  • The Amazon Smart Plug is especially useful if you’re on the go a lot and want to make it look like someone is home.
  • But it’s also of great use if you tend to forget to switch off your devices, as you can do this conveniently from anywhere.
  • But it’s also a great gadget when you’re at home, as you can also conveniently activate the Amazon Smart Plug using Alexa voice control. For example, you can switch on and off parking lights and bedside lamps without having to get down from the sofa.

Alternatives to the Amazon Smart Plugin

If the Amazon Smart Plug doesn’t appeal to you because of price, for example, there are great alternatives for you.

  • If you prefer to use Google Home instead of Alexa, the TP-Link Tapo P100 is a good choice. This can be used by both voice controls. The price is also super reasonable.
  • Another popular product is the ANTELA WLAN smart socket. This even has a practical electricity measuring function. It is also one of the cheap alternatives, as the piece costs less than 10 euros.
  • You can order the Germany Red Dot Design Award-winning GHome Smart in packs of 1, 2 and 4. It, too, is compatible with Alexa and Google Home.
