    Up until recently I was using a Sengled system, but it was just too unreliable so I started looking for a better solution...Enter the GE Cync bulbs, these are SO much better, the setup was super easy, no hub required, worked perfectly with our Alexa devices, and the WiFi range is great, All in all I'm very satisfied with these bulbs.

    Easier to connect, no hub required However sometimes one or two of them might require to be configured again after a couple of months. Use the GE app, it gives you a lot more options than simply adding them to Google home directly.

    I use these lights that are voice-controlled via Amazon Echo Dots. Easy to set up, though in the beginning, they did not always "stay connected". Not sure if it was the lights themselves or my WiFi, itself.

    GE's cync app seems pretty straight forward and has no issues operating the light, but I also use google home and link both accounts together so I can use my speaker to turn the light on or off. After a year of owning it, I haven't had any issues with it.

    Great bulbs, just make sure you use the Cync app to set them up. I first tried installing them through the Google Home app and they were not responding to voice commands. I did a factory reset, downloaded the Cync, and reinstalled them and they have been perfect ever since. Much less expensive than the Hue bulbs, and you don't need a hub.

    Neto on sale honestly for something not so expensive it's great and you get 4 light bulbs hands down better than some over priced lightbulb that has the same features but needs additional hardware to use it to get features smh

    The app for these bulbs will constantly not detect the bulbs. Also the features are very limited as far as setting timers or on\off times if you connect directly through google home rather than using the cbyGE app. They were recently acquired, so I'm hoping the new upcoming app brings more features and improved connectivity. In some cases I ended up having to use a kasa smart switch instead of these bulbs because these were so unreliable. I bought them on sale, for about $17 so not a terrible purchase but I bought too many of them and unless the app improves they will be used only in non essential areas of the house.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    This things go on sale like crazy usually around $34.99. I bought these for the start of my Smart Home and love them. They currently are connected to Wi-Fi, no hub which is great, and the Alexa app. You always have to create account with the company and then link it to Alexa, but it was very easy to do. They do have a brightness scale.

    Didn't know how I'd feel about this product, if it would be a waste of time and money but I ABSOLUTELY love this product. Purchased during Black Friday so it was considerably discounted and I am so happy I did. (FYI very easy to use with Google devices, I have Alexa as well but bulbs need additional hardware to link and I'm not planning to buy anything additional)
