If you're going to light up your home, game room, or streaming setup, we can think of few better solutions than Nanoleaf. The company has managed to gain a foothold in many homes with very interesting smart lighting products. Now it expands its catalog with new Nanoleaf Shape.
New sizes and shapes to light with style
Canadian company Nanoleaf can't say that it sells the cheapest smart lighting products on the market, but it does have some of the most interesting.
Of the Nanoleaf Shapes We have already spoken on occasion and we have even notified you when there have been interesting offers. So it was obvious that we would also do it when they had news as attractive as these. The first and most striking are the new proposals that include its Shapes product line.
Now you not only have the usual geometric shapes, but the brand adds two new options with which you can create much more varied shapes and more creative compositions. That is how you are nuevas Nanoleaf Shapes offer two triangles, one of large size and one of medium size. And if you're wondering, they share the same options, so you can use them both together with other solutions and independently.
If you already knew these lights, it is likely that multiple cases will come to mind in which you could take advantage of having models of different sizes. So now it's just a matter of giving it a spin and see how you can finally get that mural that you had thought about doing so much.
Also, you have to remember that, as happened with the previous proposals, it is no longer necessary for the entire contact surface to be aligned with respect to other lights. If now you only want them to touch half, you can do it, so you gain creative possibilities.
Regarding the price, again it must be admitted that they are not as cheap as many would like, but they are not excessively skyrocketing either. The starter pack for the large triangles and made up of seven of these plus everything necessary for their operation will have a price of $199. While for the medium-sized triangles, made up of five of them, the price will be $119.
You can also buy only the new panels in case you already have a Nanoleaf starter kit and want to add these new shapes to your current composition or create a new one. In that case, if you want three large triangles, you'll have to pay $59. And if you want ten little ones, then it will cost you 119 dollars.
A new competitor for Ikea and Philips Hue
Along with these new forms of the Shape series, Nanoleaf also announced that it is working on a series that they will call "Essentials" and that could be a tough competitor for manufacturers as well positioned in this area as Ikea or Philips with their smart bulbs.
The Swedish furniture store with its Tradfri grass has managed to offer solutions with a very good price and better integration. Because they are not only compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, but also with Apple HomeKit. And Philips for their part are a benchmark thanks to a very complete catalog of smart lights and of great quality, also with great support for various platforms and even with models that can be controlled via Bluetooth.
However, knowing the good work of Nanoleaf, the new series "Essentials" Generals could be a big headache if the price is competitive as they indicate it will be. In addition, they will not only have smart bulbs, but also led strips and other elements that would complete their options and that we already met at CES Las Vegas earlier this year. We refer to Nanoleaf Learning with the U-IQ system (motion sensor, adjustable dimmer, etc).
