    I bought these as a transition to smart lighting. I wasn’t expecting much but found they work very well with my google home and mini. Very helpful just inside the house when my arms are full of groceries and I cane turn on the lights

    Overall these work very well. But once in awhile they have to be factory reset for some reason which can be a bit annoying.

    Very Happy with the Phone App Management, except that the lights do not respond well to the Dimming option unless it is thru the app. They will start blinking if done with the Remote I have for this.

    These are nice bulbs. I would recommend Alex over Google to control these bulbs. Google Home app is inconsistent and it has not been updated for awhile. Buy these when they are on sale.

    Pros: easy to connect and you don’t need a bridge or additional equipment to pair with google Cons: even though the lights are dimmable/ I don’t believe it works as well as with other smart lights. You can say a certain percentage but I’ve only actually noticed about 3-4 different light levels. Example: the amount of light on 5% is the same as 5-30%. As compared to the hue bulbs ever percentage gradually looks different.

      Hi Jack!

      Thanks for reviewing our product. We are sorry to hear that your bulbs are not dimming the way you would like them to. There should definitely be a noticeable difference between 5% and 30%. If you are not seeing any difference we would recommend to try the following:

      1. Try a different light fixture.
      2. Reboot your Google Home device.
      3. Delete/reinstall the Google Home app.

      If the issue persists, feel free to call us at 1-844-302-2943, email us at [email protected] or live chat with us on cbyge.com. - C by GE Customer Support

    This works well enough in place of the more expensive brands of smart lights like the Hue. Got this for a gift and they seem to like them.

    Note: These bulbs were replacement bulbs so I am reviewing the first package I bought months ago. These bulbs are expensive so I expected their lifespan to be much longer than a few months. I got a package of two bulbs and put them in two living room lamps. One is still burning but one died after 8 months. Way too short a lifespan. I’m hoping I just got a lemon in the pack but it’s a pretty costly lemon!

    Don’t waste your time. The unlink all the time, the app is horrible, and to even to set up is a nightmare. Yea it’s cheaper than the Philips but I rather spend a bit more then to go through this experience ever again

    We just had to replace the existing standard bulb with the C by GE - C-Life A19 Bluetooth Smart LED Bulb (2-Pack) - White. The Google hub picked them up immediately and controls them from 0 to 100% brightness on command.

    Really love these I recommend though that if you are putting them somewhere you like to relax in the evening that you upgrade to the sleep bulbs as they are a more relaxing hue. These are great in my kitchen though.

    Bulbs hook up to google nest. So nice to ask for lights to go on. Also in google home app can turn lights on in a dark house when out later than anticipated.
