It really depends on how you use the lights at home, to be honest. If you're someone who comes home late and wants them to turn on automatically when you arrive, or if you've got a big house and you're tired of going around flipping switches, then yeah, it's worth it because you'll thank yourself every day. The problem is, if you just want them to change color once in a while, well meh, you'll end up using the basic function 95% of the time and you'll have wasted money for nothing! My advice is to start with one or two bulbs in the areas where you'd use them most, and if you see they actually make your life easier then gradually expand, because the upfront cost is brutal but the integration with your phone and everything else works pretty well.
