    The Phillips Hue Lights work as you would expect. I have them hooked up to an Echo, Wink Hub 2, and Siri and all seem to work. I cannot change the color via Echo Commands without creating a shortcut first but since I don't change the color much then it is no big deal.

    I cannot stress this enough. Phillips has an incredible product with their hue system. The colors are miraculous and work so well with both iOS and android.

    Works great, kids love the colors wife doesn't. I love the scheduling and setting modes. Works with Alexa wife loves that becouse she won't use phone apps.

    I received this device as part of a package deal. My expectations were limited, but this device works very well! Sound quality is loud and satisfying. Microphones work well. Device integrates into home automation easily. Highly recommended!

    Very easy to set up, worked perfectly right out of the box. Love being able to control my lights from my mobile devices. My only complaint is that additional bulbs are too expensive. I would give it 5 stars if not for that reason. Would definitely recommend.....

    This package comes with everything you need to get started. App will walk you through the Setup. It's easy to use and fun to setup your lighting scenes and colors. Would have liked them to be a little brighter. Maybe another 200 lumens, then it would be 5 stars

    These are probably the best smart lights outo there. Easily controlled with a Google Home or from your phone. Gen 3 definitely has better color than Gen 2.

    Things to know: Lights flicker if used on a normal dimmer wall switch. Must purchase a hue dimmer wall switch separately or always use the app to dim these lights. If lights are set to a color and you turn them off with the wall switch, they will revert back to the default white color when you turn them back on via the wall switch. Otherwise, these work beautifully.

    I like it, works as advertised, the app is easy to use and setup. I feel like Philips Hue and most of their comp is a bit overpriced in the color LED department. I understand your paying for research and technology, but $45-50 a bulb is a bit much.

    Love this purchase. Works flawlessly with my phone or google home. Sync your lights with music and movies. There are all kinds of settings and routines you can set. You can even set your lights to come on when you turn into the driveway.

    The bulbs are great, and function exactly as described. The color range when using the android app really was neat. However, they are expensive, and we don't change the colors now that we have gotten used to them. Maybe for holidays? Time will tell!

    This was my first smart home gadget and wow did it amaze!! Love the different colors and the ability to set routines. Currently have all my lights set to turn off at 1am every night (in case I fall asleep early); my bedroom light is set to gradually brighten in the morning to help wake me up; and when I get home after dark, my living room lights is set to turn on to a dim light. Amazing product! Well worth the price. The only issue is with Siri sometimes not recognizing the lights, but that’s on Apple, not Phillips Hue.

    Fun little gadget - lots of practical applications

    I admit to being a bit of a gadget guy. These lightbulbs are mostly just fun, but I did find a few nice applications. 1 - I paired the hue white bulb with a motion sensor so that my lights come on in my hallway when I walk in the basement door (previously we left the light on when we left - so I'm saving electricity). 2 - I created some colors to match my decor, which I can change based on my mood. 3 - I use the app as a timer to turn lights on before I arrive home from work, and off when I go to bed. 4 - This is probably the geekiest - I paired them to my Amazon Echo so that I can say "Alexa, turn on the living room lights" and magically they turn on. They were easy to install, fun to set up (although I admit that I probably spent too much time playing around with them) and overall they're just a nice addition to my connected home!

    I love being able to change the colors of the lights, the dimness, etc. I use two of the bulbs for my kids instead of night lights and they have worked well. I need to play around with the app more, but so far it has been great using them.
