The Logitech Pop is a simple smart button that sends commands to smart home devices based on single, double and long presses.

The Pop app is simple to use for the most part, pulling up Lutron, Lifx, Philips Hue and other devices for users to connect it to.

The Logitech Pop can only work with one smart lock for the time being: August.

Once it's all set up, a single press can issue multiple commands at once -- for instance, turning the lights blue, turning on the TV and switching it to HBO.

Logitech's best integrations come from within. By pairing with Logitech Harmony remotes, the Pop can control compatible TVs and streaming devices.

Such integrations, however, require the separate purchase of a remote that uses the Logitech Hub. But for people who already own one, the Pop is a great option.

The Logitech Pop Starter Pack includes two smart buttons and a bridge to connect them to your smart home devices. The Pack will set you back $100 (about £80), with each additional button costing $40 (about £32).
