    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

    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.

    I absolutely love these. They are perfect for movie night when you want to have the light color match the movie, when you are laying in bed and only want a small amount of light, or any other time. I love that I can leave a room and not have to worry about if I turned the light off. I have many times gotten into bed and forgot to turn the living room lights off so instead of having to get up and go downstairs I just turned them off from my phone. Super fun and convenient.

    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.

    Grouping tricky with Google Home.

    Had to trick my Google Home Assistant to group them for voice use. Not too difficult but Google Home doesn't have a way to group bulbs, just speakers. The colors are vibrant and white options are great. LOVE the dimming features for all colors. I hope this info is helpful. Tip for grouping issue: give a unique name to a "room" and link then there. Use that unique name when speaking to google and it will work them together.

    Decent bulbs, but not very smart home compatible

    I love the bulbs themselves, along with the Cync app.. My only complaint is that they aren't compatible with most of the well-known and widely used smart hubs/speakers/apps. Luckily, I use Alexa and Google Home, and it works just fine, but most of the other apps and smart home services I use aren't compatible with these great little bulbs. Other than that, the colors are decent variety-wise, but could be a tad brighter. Overall, would recommend.
