great girft

Reliable long lasting bulbs that work well with Amazon Echo.

Great love Phillips

Work as youd expect it to work. The hue products are all a bit expensive but theyre also pretty hassle free, more so than some of the other smart home products Ive tried. Fair warning, if you install a bunch of these you could be doing firmware updates for the rest of your life.

The description is a bit misleading. From my understanding it said it was compatible wit jb amazon alexa, but I come to find out the echo plus is the only one you can use without a bridge. I have the echo dot and it is not compatible. Unfortunately, if I want to control my lights Ill have to buy a hub for 52 dollars. I recommend you dig deeper into the comments and description so you can avoid the disappointment.

We have a house full of hue lights, about 50. We love them all. These are no exception.

Do not buy these lights! These lights are good in theory but they are not ready for prime time in the slightest. The main gripe I have is that you cannot use your actual light switch to use these lights in the way you likely want to. For example, say you want a nice blue tinted light in your room rather than the more yellow tint the bulb gives off when you first put in in. Too bad. Seriously, turning the light off with your light switch automatically resets the color back to the standard yellow rather than the color you took the time to set it to. The only work around are to 1) use the app to turn your lights on and off (cumbersome and unintuitive) or 2) to buy their light switch (which, if you ever accidentally use your real light switch to turn the lights off, still means you must use the app to get them back to the color you desired. That’s ridiculously stupid for a ‘’smart’’ light.

thanks

These are nice to have but a pain when the electric goes out or they loose connectivity. I had to add these again because Alexa couldnt find them after a few months of use. Its a pain going around to each on and reconnecting them again.
