    I'm trying to get it all figured out. But sometimes my Amazon echo just doesn't cooperate. I think it's because I have it in such a secluded area that it's having trouble with the connection.

    Bulbs are good but lots of conditions exist for how they can and must be used. They are limited by type of light switch. Not enough information available as you try to buy stronger bulbs.

    Just bought the product a Month ago so cannot comment it lasting long but so far so good. The bulb needs a bridge to be able to be controlled by phone, which cost another 20-30 dollars

    I like that light bulb. It seems to work fine with smart home features with the echo plus. I have been satisfied with it. My home is not really set up for a smart home yet.

    We bought these and ended up returning them and buying Sengled ones instead because they were easier to use and set up with alexa

    I really like the Hue system when it's working but all too often the lights give an "unreachable" error through my Google Home. I think the problem may be with my wireless.

    I've had issues keeping the bridge connected to the internet and I'm not sure why. I have to reboot the bridge, my router, and my modem to get it connected again.

    Bulb works

    We replaced all our lights with “daylight” bulbs in our home. The bulb works fine for those wanting the normal yellowish color light. We found the only way to have the daylight bulbs is to spend nearly $40 per bulb which we refuse to do. We also refuse to spend the nearly $60 to buy the hub required to allow the bulb to work with Alexa. Why spend the bucks when it will be much cheaper within a year or two? We would spend the money if we thought it was worth it.

    We like this addition to our lighting, but would like them even more if the bulbs were able to provide multiple light colors (like our standard hue bulbs do).

    I love the features to be able to control the lights by voice. There can be some flickering or a high pitch sometimes but it's worth it foe the convenience.

    The bulbs are fine, but the system is unreliable

    The bulbs are bright and last a long time. In and of themselves, they are fine. But they belong to a problematic system where Philips provides little support along with an inefficient app for troubleshooting issues. There are cheaper solutions out there that may be worth a look - these are simply too expensive to be so frustrating to work with.

    Not really sure if I love or like these yet. I've had some problems with a defective build that Best Buy said I needed to contact Phillips about returning.

    If you really like yellow lighting then this is a bulb. I am not a fan of the color warm white as there is nothing white about them.

    Nice light, but I think the phillips lines is a little over priced. Does what it says and works well. Only a low rating because of price.

    Will not work without a hub

    Was very excited to try this as I have seen other bulbs pretty much plug and play out of the box. Well this particular bulb while nice and bright, will not work without purchasing the additional hub. Disappointed that it just would not work with the app like some of its competitors. Well back to Best buy it went the same day I purchased it.
