I disagree on the smart watches, but I know I'm in the minority in how I use them. They actually help me disconnect from my phone better because only select apps send notifications to my watch, so if I get a vibration on my wrist, I check, see if it needs action or not, then move on with my life. In my work I often get messages that need immediate action, but I'm often in situations where I can't be distracted in the moment, so smart watches have been super helpful.

As for all the fitness features or app control, etc. etc, I don't really care. It's nice that I can control my music, I played around with using it as a remote for my camera, but really, all I need is good, controlled notifications on my wrist for ambient awareness.

Pebble watches have always been the best and I'm eagerly awaiting my Pebble Time 2

Definitely agree on the bulbs though. Having color control or a dimmer is great but doesn't need to be an app.
