    I love these. While I wish they weren’t so expensive, I think they’re great. They work with Apple home. They have a million color options. It’s great for any room and any mood.

    These are such fun lights. The infinite amount of colors you can make. Great for holidays, parties and just if you want some color in your life. Very easy to set up. You can use different apps to make them sync with music and sound. These Apps can cost you money though. Overall great product would recommend.

    These lights are really great for setting a mood, or just lighting a room. We replaced a ceiling fan and placed Hue lights in the lighting fixture, since there was no wall switch for the fan lights. The fact that these lights can operate with an Amazon Alexa device or the Hue app is very helpful!

    So, I've been eyeballing Phillips Hue lights for a few years but held off due to the price. Previously I was using the typical $10/light smart bulbs. They did their job but I really wondered what the Hue had to offer as their bulbs were several times the cost of the competition. Well, I finally pulled the trigger and bought this starter kit and an extra 2 pack of bulbs. Easiest setup ever. Big Plus: Most home wireless routers start to have performance issues starting around 30 devices. When you get into smart home products you'll hit this number easily. All Hue products connect wirelessly to the hub, not your router. Also this starter set comes with a power switch control. Not needed but nice to have when you don't want to wake others by saying commands or if your internet drops.

    I've been waiting to switch over to smart bulbs in my house due to the cost and finally decided to slowly upgrade. In my opinion, these are the best smart bulbs available and are very easy to use. They are a bit pricey, but otherwise work really well.

    Love these! I have ordered 3 sets of these on sale - it was cheaper to get the set with the hub and switch than just the 3 bulbs. I replaces all the recessed lights around my house with these - No more going on a ladder to change out colored bulbs for the holiday seasons!!!

    I love this product!! I live in an apartment and my fan and light are right above my bed. This was the perfect starter kit for me to get me hue light stripes working the way I wanted. From the on/off switch remote to being able to control from my phone. I love it!!

    I have the Hue system but got this for my parents. Has everything you need and its great that it comes with the wireless remote. Quick and easy setup and you are up and running in no time. Can be a bit expensive compared to other wifi lights, but if you can snag this on sale, its worth it.

    I like the color ranges from the lights, and the connectivity for voice control. The hue bridge I did have a few problems with, and had to factory reset, and setup all over again. I haven’t had the same issues since. It was only when I added the hdmi sync box that I experienced these problems, but they are resolved, and I am very satisfied with the products. The price on the other hand, I feel is a little high for the product.

    Bought one for each of my kids rooms. Easy to set up. They control it easily with the Google home in their rooms. They enjoy setting them to different colors, and appreciate being able to set the brightest to a low level when they wake up in the morning. Overall, they work great.

    I bought the starter kit and haven’t looked back. I’m addicted to the Philips hue light bulbs and definitely will be buying more in the future. They are pricey but definitely a must buy if you are into smart lighting. I have it connect to my Vivint smart home and also google home.

    If you're thinking about dipping your toe into the world of smart lights, stop thinking. Philips Hue lights are the best! Rarely do I have any connectivity issues. It's great to be able to control all my lights with my phone, or the included dimmer. Beware, the addiction is real.

    Lights can be used for multiple purposes. They can be used for Xmas, different mood settings, scenery and for pure light. You don't have to turn switches as you can use them with Google, Echo, telephone and other ways.

    Being able to control my lights with my watch, phone, and even my voice has been very helpful. The automatic themes and wake-up/sleep settings are great! Sometimes they will disconnect randomly but are usually up within seconds.

    I love my Hue lights. Easy set up. So many light colors to choose from. It's fun to pick different ones to change the mood. Easy to connect with Alexia. Plus, you can schedule timers to turn on and off automatically. It's great. I dont come home to a dark house anymore!

    Limitless color options. The official Hue app is great. HueDynamic for mobile and PC also offers a lot more options for music and video sync and ambiances. Added a lightstrip behind my TV after buying this. Google Home integration feels like the future.

    I've been wanting Philips Hue for a while and I'm so glad I splurged and got them. The colors add such beautiful ambiance to my home and I love how easy the app is to use and the wide range of colors. I also love that I can control them with Alexa. Great buy.
