Game changer
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.These BR30 bulbs have transformed our media room. The customization options through the Hue app are infinite. If you have recessed lights and already have other Hue products, these are a no brainer. The upgrade in ambiance is fantastic. So happy I purchased these.

My Review
||Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.I have pretty much changed up my whole home to light up using these bulbs. They are highly addictive in how they can change the ambiance. The only downside is that there is a lag in terms of the time it takes to operate. Perhaps Philips can come out with a controller dedicated to these lights.

Great Lights!
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Decided on these lights during a remodel. I’ve been using the regular A26 (I think) in lamps. After installing new recessed lights I knew I wanted the same functionality. They work great.

Q: QuestionIf the dimmer switch is left all the way up and never turned down, can these be used with a dimmer switch? Thanks
Asked by revnorman.
- A:Answer It's tricky. I was able to use a dimmer switch (all the way up) at my previous apartment with no problems. However, I wasn't abel to use my Hue bulbs at my new place with a dimmer switch. I had to replace the switch with the non-dimmer type. Be careful, I had to learn the hard way, for some reason, my light fixture blew out two of my bulbs when I used a dimmer switch. Bottom line, it's best not to use a dimmer switch.

Q: QuestionAre these bulbs out of stock? When will they be available
Asked by Nikki.
- A:Answer I looked everywhere and Best But was the first non shady site that had them in stock. I waited about a month before they became available now they are here. They are plentiful at this moment. I had to buy 2 singles because at the time the double pack was sold out. Still worth it.

Q: QuestionHas the 2 pack of color Hue BR30 bulbs been discontinued? I haven't seen these in stock for several weeks online or in store. (Written in August 2021)
Asked by Ann.
- A:Answer They are in stock now after I already bought two singles.

Q: QuestionCan this work on Bluetooth alone and does this go white and how bright is white
Asked by Nikki.
- A:Answer I think it can work only with Bluetooth but really just get the bridge. Committed issues? I have found that the listed lumens (brightness) is for white and when using color it is less bright. The idea is to use more lights at less brightness set all around to create a mood/atmosphere in the room that is something you won’t regret if you can afford it. Hue bulbs are estimated at around 15-20 years of daily use.
