I hope to have a couple of Zigbee switches to turn things off, and hope where possible to use zigbee compatible lamps and bulbs, as they can then be controlled locally.
Have just set up SmartThings hub, one AOne Smart dimmer switch and an old LIFX lamp as a trial. Scenes and automations were relatively simple to set up. Though the LIFX appears a little laggy as the SmartThings app has to communicate with LIFX.

Problem with all these hubs is if your internet connection goes down, or their cloud service has a hiccup, they become expensive paperweights until connected to the cloud again.
