I am a fan of Ikea lights. I can use normal light switches to turn the light on/off. But I also have a remote and I can dim the lights or change the temperature. No hub needed. The price is low enough. And Ikea will probably stay in business a long time.

You can do the same with Philips Hue.

And just like the Ikea one, it's just a bit better with the hub.
