    I bought these lights because I was looking to get some Wi-Fi color changing exterior lights for Halloween and I was looking at competitors it would’ve cost me nearly $500 for bulbs with these I was able to just spend less than 100. It might be worthy to note that I have a Wi-Fi mesh system so all of my bulbs are able to have a great connection to my Wi-Fi. I had noticed it features with how you can customize the lights are more vast than that of say Philip hues

    Only bought these because they were the only smart bulbs in stock at my local Best Buy. Nice bulbs, a little finicky when controlled through Alexa’s voice control. I love GE’s Cync app, from which you can control these light directly, create routines and change the bulb’s color. I use this bulb, dimmed to 20%, in a table lamp set to the same blue tone my TV throws off

    Bulbs Are Just Okay...GE Ecosystem Not So Much

    |

    Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought these bulbs to fill in some gaps of my Hue lighting system at a fraction of the cost. I was loathe to download yet another smart home app on my phone/tablets, but seriously, Hue is way too expensive. The GE app (called Cync) isn't terrible as smart home apps go. It paired my lights very quickly and synced them to the Alexa app with no problem. Alexa integration works well. I was a bit amused by how they blink on -- one by one. The problems: The color reproduction is poor, especially when compared side-by-side with Hue bulbs. There is no app that I have found that can integrate these bulbs with the Hue ecosystem -- other than Alexa (you can command a room with mixed bulbs to, say, red), so no setting up colored scenes with these and Hue bulbs, and wireless switches and motion sensors for Hue bulbs will not work with these. This wouldn't be much of an issue if you want to put some of these in a separate room, BUT, if you want to control them with a GE wireless switch and/or motion sensor, they WILL NOT work with Alexa/Google/Siri. So if I want to control the room that these are in with a switch from GE I lose Alexa control. What sense does that make?? I will not buy into the GE ecosystem any more. Especially since I have since found a brand of bulbs that integrates perfectly into the Hue system at half the price of Hue bulbs.

    I have so much fun with these color changing light bulbs. I wanted smart bulbs to connect to my Alexa, and the color changing option was a bonus. These were easy to connect to the apps (both Alexa and the Cync app), and likewise easy to control with both. You get more color options through the Cync app, so if I'm not using voice control I typically create my settings there rather than on the Alexa app. Overall really happy with my purchase and would definitely get more in the future.
