Five Stars for LifX/ One Star for BestBuy
I started buying LifX bulbs to replace my 87 Hue bulbs. There is a limit on the number of Hue bulbs (2 bridges & 50 bulbs per bridge = 100) in a full house system. There is also some noticeable response lag starting around 40 bulbs on a buidge. There is no limit on the number of WiFi LifX bulbs. 1). These bulbs work directly with Siri, Alexia, Google, & SmartThings. 2) I really like the “night vision” lighting which allows my cams better recordings in dark rooms. Ding) My one complaint is not with LifX but with BestBuy…. I ordered NEW bulbs and received OPENED items. The bulbs initially did not work, But before returning and waiting, I reset the bulbs and they work perfectly. I would suggest to anyone lighting a whole home (indoor & outdoor) to have an mix of LifX and Hue because both bulbs have different / unique features

Better Than Hue
Best smart lightbulbs ever. Soon as I saw 50% off, I immediately jumped on it. Never seen discount on this particular model of Lifx previously. Absolutely recommended!

Love these
I love these lights. My only complaint is that if you have them outside in the ground and they sit in snow , you will eventually get condensation inside. I have them in and out of the house.

Cool, but difficult to connect outside
I bought three bulbs for the outside of my house. The first light I bought and installed was the porch light. I liked it so much that I bought two additional lights to install on either side of the garage door. The porch light was fairly easy to set up. When I tried installing the two garage door lights, only one light would connect. If I managed to connect the second light, it disconnected the porch light. I'm not sure if this is somehow related to our internet connection and speed. In either case, if after speaking with LIFX the issue is not resolved, I will be returning all three lights. I imagine that if it works as intended, it would be awesome because you can remotely turn on and off the lights and change the color of the lights all from your phone. I just haven't been able to achieve this. I put that I would not recommend to a friend because of the difficulty with connecting the lights to your network.

Great LED Color Lights for Smart Apple Home
Love my LIFX lights. This BR30 is good for downlights (can lights), I have used outdoor lighting and been happy with them. PIcked up three more for Lower Level Kitchenette and Desk. Works well with Siri voice commands and Apple Home app. I have ethernet backhaul internet access points and have had no issues with LIFX, they are solid. Bright and nice color array and the app is good too.
