Customers are saying

Customers highly value the ease of use, brightness adjustability, and affordability of the A19 Smart LED Light Bulbs. Many appreciate the compatibility with smart home devices like Google Home and Alexa, as well as the straightforward setup process. However, some users experienced connectivity issues and found the accompanying app less than satisfactory. Overall, the positive feedback on ease of use and price outweighs the negative comments regarding the app and connectivity.

    Very easy to configure. You nee to download and app to be able to set a timer (set when you want the lights to turn on and off), also lets you set the intensity of the light. You can also turn the light on and off manually from the app.

    What's not to like? I walk into my home and say, Alexa, let there be light, and by golly, the lights come on to my pre-selected levels. At bedtime, Alexa turns-off everything and prepares us for bed. These are great and I want more!

    Got a wemo plug first. Bad idea on my part! Traded them in and got these instead. Absolutely love them! They work amazing with Google home and they are bright! If I set my 2 bedroom ones to 15% I could still read a book just fine.

    I got a crazy good deal on these bulbs from Best Buy. They were worth the sale price. They work well with Google home and I love that they dim. I also love that I can turn lights on from anywhere in the house (or outside the house). The only downside is they sometime disconnect from wifi and can take a bit for them to reconnect. You also have to train people not to use the physical light switch. I've tried other brands, and found these to work as good or better than anything I've tried.

    Bought for my parents. Wasn't going to write a review for these since I wasn't using them but last week one stopped working. Tried for a while to get it reconnected but nothing worked. Luckily they had one that wasn't used yet. Got it connected right away and named it the same as the first. The first on still doesn't show in the app but now both work with one command. Turned out to be a better outcome but still not sure what went wrong.

    These are my first smart bulbs so I don't have anything to compare them to. We're enjoying the convenience (and the novelty). But occasionally Google Home will tell me a bulb is offline. This usually fixes itself after a while. The only explanation for this happening that I can think of is that the bulbs have to be added by, and maybe continued to be managed in the background by the GE app interfacing with GH. Maybe sometimes they don't feel like talking to each other.

    This is my second set of smart bulbs, the original site or from a different manufacture. These are much better and brighter than most. I like that these can be controlled via my smartphone and my Alexa device in the house. Once they are set up to your WiFi, controlling them is extremely easy! They are password secured with your Wi-Fi security, so you don’t have to worry about anyone getting unauthorized access to your lights. The wireless feature is useful especially when you need to turn on the lights went away from home or when getting home late at night in the dark. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking for a safe and cost-effective option to smart light bulbs! Also, these bulbs do not need their own hub where most others do!!!

    Interesting programmable LED light bulbs. You can use your phone to program them for many different functions. You can also use an external device like Alexa to do the tasks for you. I've not really used them to their fullest extent but am working on that. If you can get these on a Daily Deal, do it. I also bought them to do ethical hacking and see if these are secure or not.
