Beam on!
||Posted .Owned for 5 months when reviewed.Have had this for 5 months and couldn’t be happier. I was originally going to grab the Nanoleaf but this seemed a little more modern for my taste so I pulled the trigger on the Beam. Definitely going to order another set soon. I have a couple other LIFX bulbs and the app makes them fairly easy to control, never any connectivity or user issues.

LIFX has best smart lights
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I own one or more products from LIFX and love each and everyone of them. I just got the BEAM recently and really enjoy the lighting it provides in my office. You are limited in how many ways you can hook it up, but it has a much better sticking power than the LIFX Tile. probably because not only does it have the 3M stickies but also each beam has a magnetic end to it. Love, Love, LOVE it!!

Easy set-up, super bright. One flaw w/ Lifx Tiles.
||Posted .Compared to my experience with the Tiles, these were much easier to set-up. A fun piece of unnecessary, but awesome tech. I got stuck on updating the Beam for a bit, but restarting the updating/set-up process fixed this. Two cons: 1) the power cable downgrades the look a bit. I wonder if there's a way to make it less intrusive. 2) many of the themes for the Beam does not match well with the same themes for the Tiles. Images attached. I could make my own themes with the Draw functionality in the app, but that's more work on my part, where the built-in themes should work across all Lifx devices. Overall, still pleased with this product. Gives my computer set-up a nice look.

Premium packaging; minimal look; difficult setup
||Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.Once you get it to work, its a great product. I liked the premium packaging. It comes in a reusable box with a magnetic flap. My main gripe is the setup--both physically and virtually, is very difficult. It's a lot harder than it looks. Getting the led bars levelled then connecting them together took a lot of trial and error. It turns out the adhesive strips were also hook and loop. The directions didn't specify this. They're basic Command hanging strips. Adding the strips in the software is also very difficult. It takes several tries. I had to do a soft reset in order to get it to work properly. Once setup though--it's pretty nice. Has a nice minimal look in my living room.

Review: LIFX Beam with Apple HomeKit is a cool remote-controlled lighting featureThe Beam may be a luxury, and has a few rough edges, but proves to be a cool way of making smart lighting a focus of your home instead of just another fixture.

Answered by Tangledwolf
Q: QuestionHow thick (both from the wall and from top to bottom) is a LIFX Beam? Want to see if it can perfectly go around a LINNMON tabletop from IKEA and how far it'll come out from the desk top.
Asked by Tigerlillies.
- A:Answer The beam is 3/4 of an inch thick
Answered by JoeCool
Q: QuestionIf I buy 2 sets, can they be connected together?
Asked by Tetra6billy.
- A:Answer If the question is can you link them all into one beam it’s no. You can only have up to 8 on one beam. If asking can you link them separate through the control app then yes.
Answered by Synthboii
Q: QuestionHow is it powered?
Asked by Kyarusso.
- A:Answer It comes with a magnetic power attachment that plugs into any power outlet. The cord is white, so it won't stand out too much if you have it exposed against a white wall.
