The switch includes an ambient light sensor (so it can be set not to come on in daylight) and a motion sensor to automatically trigger the light. Installation, as with most other smart switches, requires a neutral wire, but it's fairly straightforward. The Wi-Fi-connected switch works with all kinds of bulbs, has apps for iOS and Android, and lets you control lights with a touch, voice, motion or remotely via a smartphone. The GE Cync Smart Switch isn't the sexiest or sleekest, but it's the best smart light switch because it gets the job done and is packed with features.

Read our full Leviton Decora Smart WiFi Motion sensing Dimmer review. Leviton announced that its second-gen Decora Wi-Fi 2nd Gen Dimmer and Switch will be gaining Matter support in early 2023. For those with older homes, Leviton has the Decora No-Neutral Dimmer ( $49, Amazon) and a No-Neutral Switch ( $44, Amazon), which work with the Decora Smart Wi-Fi Bridge ( $20, Amazon) all are compatible with Alexa, HomeKit, and Google Home, and look to be good, less expensive alternatives to Lutron's lineup. If you don't care for a motion sensor, Leviton also makes a dimmer-only version and an on-off only version of this switch, among others. About the only thing we didn't like is that it requires a neutral wire, which may be an issue for older homes. It also supports a large number of smart home platforms, including the big three: Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. You can set specific dimming levels for times of the day (such as a nightlight), can handle a wide range of lights including LEDs, CFLs incandescent, and the less common Magnetic Low Voltage (MLV) type.
