Yeelight plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Smart Bulb | $15/month | 4 | Entry tier |
| Light Strip | $30/month | 3 | +$15/month, 3 more features |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.
Smart Bulb
$15/monthThe entry tier. It covers wifi, 16m colors, voice control, app control.
Light Strip
$30/monthOver Smart Bulb, this tier adds:
- Music sync
- Extendable

Before you pay for Yeelight
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 2 tiers between $15/month and $30/month, with the jump itemised above. With no free tier on record, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to compare Yeelight against the tools that do have one before committing.
Yeelight runs on ios, android, and is published by Yeelight (Xiaomi Ecosystem) of Qingdao, China. The full record is on the Yeelight review.

- Light Strip costs $30/month against $15/month, and adds music sync, extendable, scene modes.
- Is the Light Strip plan on Yeelight worth it?
- That depends entirely on whether you need what it adds, which on the published record is music sync, extendable, scene modes. It costs $30/month against $15/month for Smart Bulb. Softwr has not used either tier, so this page can tell you what changes, not whether it is worth the difference to you.

- The record lists 13 features across 3 areas: core, integrations, platform. In practice it is brought in for ambient lighting, entertainment sync, automated schedules.
- Does Yeelight charge per user?
- The record carries a price and a billing period for each of its 2 tiers, but not the unit that price is charged in. Per-seat and flat-rate billing look identical in this data, so check the vendor's page before budgeting for a team.
- Are these Yeelight prices current?
- They are what the catalogue entry holds, refreshed when the entry is. Vendors change pricing without notice and nobody at Softwr re-verifies each tier by hand, so treat this as a structured summary and the vendor's own pricing page as the authority.
