TL;DR: Light up your home with the GE Sol WiFi Alexa Enabled Smart Light, on sale for $89.99 as of Jan. 17, giving you a 55% savings.
You’re probably used to ring lights being associated with TikTokers or YouTubers who use the inventive design to, well, make them look better on screen. You may have even noticed someone on a Zoom call with a bright circle illuminated in their pupils, which is another dead giveaway that someone’s using a ring light. But if you’ve ever found yourself leaving yours on to illuminate your space, there’s actually a ring light on the market that’s specifically made for home decor. The futuristic lamp is designed to be left on and helps cozy up a little corner of your house.
Even better, this one from GE comes with Alexa-enabled abilities. The GE Sol (pronounced like soul) is the world’s first light product with Alexa built-in. That means you can use it for all the things you’d normally use your voice assistant for — like scheduling meetings, making grocery lists, playing your favorite music, and even updating you on the current weather. Clock radios are, after all, so 20 years ago.
The Sol features 360-degree omni-directional audio, which means you don’t have to invest in a Bluetooth speaker in addition to this light (or a separate Amazon Alexa device) if you don’t want to. It offers high-quality and immersive sound, so you can pare down on purchasing extra items. When you provide voice control for Alexa, it’ll hear you even from further away, since it includes two far-field microphones. It’s perfect for city living and can even be kept near a bustling, noisy window.
Here’s a look at everything the Sol can do:

Normally, a light fixture that can do all of this and boasts innovative design to boot can run you close to $200 (or more). But for a limited time, the GE Sol is on sale for 55% off, knocking the price down to just $89.99.
