Lights are great but the Android App is terrible.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I want to really love these lights and Nanoleaf but they make it hard to do with how bad the Android App is. I know my lights are online via Thread as I can control them via the Google Home app and Nanoleaf Desktop app on Windows. But the Nanoleaf app on Android isn't able to see them online for whatever reason 95% of the time. If your an Android User I would steer clear of Nanoleaf in general until they can make a working app. Im leaving two stars as the lights are controllable via Windows and Google Home but it would be a five star review if the Android app wasn't terrible.

Inferior Product
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I also own the first generation of these lights which only work in HomeKit over thread. Those lights were flawless. These new matter lights are the single worst part of my smart home. The are slow to respond, often “no response”, colors change drastically as you dim, the Nanoleaf App itself is atrocious. I love my shapes lights, but these new bulbs are garbage.

Posted .Sorry for this trouble😓 We will make sure we help you with this! however, we might have to ask you some questions to troubleshoot. The New Matter enabled lights work over Thread. So they require a Matter-compatible smart home hub and a Thread border router. There were also firmware updates recently that should help with making sure they work better. We're always working to improve everything from the technical and the user experience perspective, including things like the app, so those things are only going to get better over time. As for Matter, that's partially still a mystery in the hands of the big players, but for our part we're going to make sure again that everyone has the best experience possible.
Look for the older bulbs!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Old Nanoleaf bulbs are my favorite they work well and have thread. These new “Matter” bulbs are garbage. I want them to work as well as the older version, but they are unreliable they don’t always turn on or adjust to the right colors. Apple Home will show them on or off as you click them however the bulb doesn’t always change it is 50/50 at best. Try to find the older bulbs and avoid “matter” products for a couple years until the industry resolves the bugs

We also appreciate your feedback and we want to make sure we get this right for you. May we ask, have you also checked if you have updated your iOs to 16.5 Beta?
Good light, good price
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to set up on Smart Things and Google Home. Has lots of light settings. Saves a lot of my energy bill.
I would recommend this to a friendGood Matter and Thread Bulbs
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great light bulbs. Fast and responsive, and since its matter, it works with all smart home hubs. Just make sure to have a border thread router when purchasing these bulbs, like a Homepod Mini, otherwise you wont get the full benefits and are limited to bluetooth only.
I would recommend this to a friendUnreliable connectivity
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have 15 of the pre-matter ones and have no issues. The new matter ones took 5 hours to pair and for over a week have been unresponsive. Working with Nanoleaf support still has not resolved the issues. My suggestion is wait a few months before buying these and wait for them to update them after they do a few more updates to the firmware.

Posted .We are truly sorry that you are having this experience with your Nanoleaf Essentials Matter A19 Bulbs. The New Matter enabled lights work over Thread, So they require a Matter-compatible smart home hub and a Thread border router. There were also firmware updates recently that should help with making sure they work better. Please Update ALL Apple devices to the latest version, reset your Nanoleaf device (if it wasn't paired successfully previously), and try pairing again. That should make things better. Let us know if it worked out for you or not.
