    It doesn't work with Google Home and that was the entire reason for the purchase. It works for a bit, disconnects, then never connects again.

    You can’t control these lightbulbs through your phone or computer unless you have the Phillips hub. 99% time the Phillips hub does not connect really bad technical design. I would recommend Lifx or Wyze bulbs instead, they can be controlled through an app. without a hub. Lifx and Wyze connect the first time every time.

    1 of the 2 bulbs was flashing and not working out of the box. Kept trying and through nothing special all of a sudden started working. Worked fine....Then, just outside of the return window...it started flashed again with success fixing it. What a waste of money.

    You can’t control these lightbulbs through your phone or computer unless you have the Phillips connect box. Really bad technical design. I would recommend Lifx bulbs instead, they can be controlled through an app and HomeKit if you’re on apple.

    Thee best lightbulb you can buy hands down. The quality is unmatched and is perfect for just about any situation. It also lasts way longer than most normal lightbulbs.

    Good while it lasts.

    Worked great while it lasted. Now, just after 3 years old (much of which wasn't in use) it doesn't stay on for more than a few minutes. Software resets, updates, resets of hub etc etc don't fix it.

    Started well, ended badly

    I have 25 hue devices round my house, and initially very impressed. However in the last 2 weeks these have started to turn on at random times in the day. Times that I have never scheduled (like my bedroom at 2am!). I contacted support, 2 days to give me an initial reply, which didn't work. 4 days after that after telling them the issue wasn't resolved no response.I've switched back to standard bulbs as being woken middle of the night for 3 weeks was not great.
