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!
Thats great to hear Jeffrey! We love hearing about our lights making your life a little easier. Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. -C by GE Support

I like them but it’s hard to get them connected to the GE app and the Alexia app I got it to work but took a long time you have to keep playing with it.
I would recommend this to a friend

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.
Thats so great to hear! We appreciate you giving our products a try. Thank you for the review and for being the best part of C by GE. -C by GE Support

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.
We are happy to hear that you are enjoying the many possibilities of smart home lighting. If you continue having issues with disconnects, please do not hesitate to give us a call at 1-800-302-2943. Thank you for your review! -C by GE Support

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.
Hi Rich, sorry that this issue has occurred if you are not able to pair any lights to the app or if they disconnect we recommend resetting them using the steps on this page cyncsupport.gelighting.com/s/article/factory-reset-your-device. Feel free to contact us at 1-844-302-2943 for any assistance. Thank you for your review! -Cync Support Team

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.
We are grateful to be your first choice when it comes to making your first step into the smart home world. Thank you for your review! -C by GE Support

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!!!
Thank you for leaving an extensive review for us. We are happy to hear that the direct connect option is working out for your needs. We hope you enjoy your new lights. -C by GE Support

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.
We are happy to hear you were able to complete your smart home set up and hope you enjoy using your new smart devices. - C by GE Support

I love these bulbs. They give great lighting. Works perfectly with Alexa. You have to download the app to connect the two, but can control it via Alexa. I love that I can dim the lights to various settings.
We hope you continue to explore and take advantage of the many possibilities and benefits of smart home lighting. Thank you for your review! -C by GE Support

We purchased these so we could turn lights on we're not at home. These were simple to configure and integrated with our Alexa hub so we can turn them on using our Ring app. I would buy them again.

This product is Good, at first i was super nervous that it didnt come with a hub. Setup was easy and straight forward. Most of them connected like a charm. The only issue I'm having is trying to reset the lights. I wish it was easier than following a pattern of off and on's that I cant seem to get correct. 3/4 bulbs i have are working as intended.

Worked as expected. I plugged the bulbs in and it automatically showed up in my Google Home app on Android. I followed the setup steps in Google Home and in a couple minutes, it was all complete.
