    The devices will randomly disconnect, and have to be reset, the app from GE is horrendous, lacks functionality and has no custom support thats useful. Go with phillips hue or geeni and dont waste your time with any GE product

    I tried three other brands of smart bulbs before finally finding one that actually worked on a consistent basis. Nothing fancy about these bulbs; they work exactly how they should!

    The kids love them. Always want different colors. Only has pre selection on colors. Wish for the price they would have the million+ dial to customize colors. Definitely not worth full price.

    Static Lights Do Not Change Color On Their Own

    Very easy to install and configure. However, I feel misled and was quite disappointed that these bulbs do not dynamically cycle through colors, like other comparable products. You have to manually change brightness and color when you feel like doing so.
