Does the job intended for use and set up fairly fast with HomeKit. Doesn’t seem as bright compared to the ones prior and the coloring does seem off (bright white isn’t really white now?) but that could be a user issue or perhaps fixed within the app. Otherwise, a typical light bulb that happens to be some of the few that work with Apple HomeKit - the primary reason for buying

Thank you for your feedback! 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. As Matter and Thread continue to grow though that experience too is going to get better and better. Being early adopters of new technology is always tricky at first, but the only way to go is up and we're going to make sure we try our best to get things working better.

Works well most of the time. Sometime unresponsive and gives the wrong colors. Frustrating when it happens at night.

I use homekit, so the set up is so easy. Have had others for several years and never had issues. With thread, their response has gotten much faster, although their response time before wasnt that slow anyways

These bulbs work well, but are not all that fun to setup. Once setup they are reliable and also work in all the major home ecosystems. You will need a hub to work with the matter protocol.

Bought this because I was tired of having problems with philips hue Bluetooth bulb. Super easy setup on nanoleaf app and after updating had no problem adding to google home. Will be replacing the rest of my hue bulbs with these.

These bulbs are incredibly unreliable. They used to be great but now have issues with connecting to the Apple HomeKit and are full of bugs. The bulbs themselves function within the Nanoleaf app but that app also doesn’t run very well with multiple lights in multiple rooms.

Sorry for this trouble😓 We will make sure we help you with this! 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. iOS, iPadOS, and tvOS 16.5 were released to production. So 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.

Overall decent. I have a Nanoleaf bulb in one of my lamps and that hasn’t had any major issues but these new bulbs have needed to be reset and unpaired 4-5 times. Once they are working it’s fine but it’s super annoying to spend an hour plus resetting everything every time I want to change a setting. I’m sure not everyone will have this problem. It seems like everytime they are turned off (with a light switch, etc.) they take an abnormally long time to reconnect (if at all) which many other brands don’t have an issue with. Expected more for such an expensive product.

Hello and sorry to hear about connectivity issues with our Essentials Matter A19 Smart Bulb. There could be several reasons you are having trouble with connectivity since most routers and internet service providers and switching to default on 5g, when Nanoleaf works on 2.4g. If you also have an iOS device, they also just released their update which should also make things better. We can go through some troubleshooting steps with you through our support team but if it's faulty we can quickly send you a new one. You can contact them at support@nanoleaf.me and they can help you from there!

They were pretty unreliable when I first bought them but after the most recent update they’ve been great. Really good value as well

These Nanoleaf Matter & Thread enabled smart bulbs were extremely unreliable for me. They constantly disconnected from the Thread network with my HomePod mini and switched to Bluetooth, which rendered them near useless. One bulb in my kit didn’t even connect to Thread at all. I returned these and purchased Philips Hue. The Hue system has none of these problems due to the different way Hue bulbs operate (ZigBee rather than Thread).

Colors are great and connectivity is good if you do not turn off the light switch it is connected to.

Very good lights. Easy to control with Apple Home Kit. A lot of colors to choose from.

The color and brightness are great. Setup is a nightmare. Useless as the software is so bad, and the lights drop from the Thread network randomly several times a day. This is not a Thread network issues as I have about 7 edge and border routers.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience — we’re really sorry to hear how frustrating the setup and connection issues have been, especially since you’ve already got a solid Thread network in place. That’s definitely not how it should be, and we understand how disappointing it is when things don’t work as expected.
We’d love to take a closer look and help sort this out. Could you reach out to our support team here: https://support.nanoleaf.me/hc/en-us/requests/new? If possible, include some details about your current network setup and what you’ve already tried — that’ll help us speed things up on our end. We’re here to help get everything running smoothly!

Decent smart lightbulb, works well with Matter. The colors aren't that accurate, but it's good enough for the price
David Posted
This is a good deal as far as smart lights go, but these are not very reliable. They frequently lose connection. Hopefully they release a firmware update soon to address This problem.

Fair easy to set up on apple homekit and is much brighter than I excepted.
sjadwell Posted
Slow to respond. Very difficult to connect. Spent hours setting up temperature and home kit only to have it all default on the first trip home after being out. Almost every light was a different color/shade of white.
