    Got them on a crazy discount. They are far better and brighter than i thought theyd be. Dealing with the nanoleaf app can be a pain, otherwise they are bright, nice presets and split into 2branches from the power cord/controller

    If you get them to connect to your network then they are a ok. I purchased two. It took one several month to finally connect to wifi. Without connection, youre severly restricted in terms what you can do with it.

    Read around online and you'll see these have an issue of being frequently unreachable or just straight up seizing, even with the two firmware updates from the manufacturer. Combine that with the fact that the controller gets VERY hot to the point where you can smell it and these are probably left in the box. When they work as intended the actual functionality of the light patterns and colors are great but I think it's best to pass on these until Nanoleaf figures out a better iteration.

    Stopped working within an hour. Won't turn on at all. Followed the instructions for a hard reset and they still won't turn on. Going back to the store.

    I would not buy again. Too unreliable. Disconnects from both Homekits and even the Nanoleaf app.
