They're supposed to be 2nd Gen, but I think Best Buy is either pulling a fast one on customers or they have the listing incorrect... 2nd Gen is supposed to have richer colors, my 2nd Gen A19 Hue bulbs have a real green color. Where my 1st Gen A19 bulbs are light pale lime & not green hardly at all!! These BR30's I received emit the lime green color like the 1st Gens... And yes they did come in a brown box with a Phillips hue sticker. Best Buys website didn't say they were refurbs, but now I'm beginning to wonder after you brought that up:(
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Gen1, and yes they came in a brown box for me. I picked them up on a deal of the day at 25? (I think). Have worked fine for me so far. Purchased two months ago. Cheers.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I had generation one. They are redesigned from my gen one.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Those were gen1. When I was trying to purchase a pair at Bestbuy, it kept ringing up at regualr prince. After some investigation, they said they were the second generation and I would have to order the first gen online. I'm not sure the difference b/w the two gens. Mine came in a brown box as if they were refurbished.
