I started off just getting two to test in two lamps. Now I have Phillip hue light bulbs all over my house. Be sure to also check out the color bulbs. They are really great for setting the mood

This was our first step into the new world of Lighting. It took some getting used to (leaving the light switch on all the time). But now after a month it works! We have it connected to both out phone (Siri) as well as Alexa (Amazon Echo). Ready to consider the next step "COLOR " Lights.

Was going back and forth on whether or not these are worth it and I am glad I bought them. They are very easy to set up and work great with my cell phone. Dimmer switch works great as well.

These lights are a hefty price but worth it, i ended up redesigning our remodel after purchasing these and setting up in our rental. The lightning app will take your breath away

Very good bulbs, easy to use and install. The bulbs are 60W equivalent, would be better if Philips mage a 75W equivalent. The Philips app is ok but many others exist that are better.

I used to leave my bathroom light on for my kids (they don't like to sleep in the dark) and always turned off my outside lights at night. Now, I can control everything with my phone and schedule on and off times and dim the kids lights. Much better. I love these smart lights.

The Philips lightbulbs work wonderfully with the echo dot system. It's nice to walk into my home at night and instantly get the lights on, even when my hands are full.

I actually have all three types of bulbs, white, ambiance white, and color... Over all color are a cool toy, white is useful and ambiance is somewhere in-between. If/when I buy more it will be the color or the regular white ones. Over all love them though.

Like it, really easy to set up,. Will freeze out from time to time but works well with alexa. Only gripe is value, needs to be more affordable to really go main stream where one can replace all bulbs. Then it will really make sense. Would recommend.

The starter kit was easy to activate and integrate with Samsung SmartThings
Downside is that the app is always disconnecting and not activating the lights without external integration like IFFT

Compatible with echo, harmony and HomeKit. I have a few switches from belkin but they are going the way of the Betamax if they don't offer more compatibility.

Easy to set up and working great. I didn't give it a 5 start bc the bulbs weren't bright enough for my liking but would still like to to add more bulbs through out the house. Just programmed it to come on in the morning so we'll see how that goes.

Started with a white package but then decided I wanted some color - may seem like a splurge but worth it to customize your mood with lighting!

They work flawlessly, connect to the internet easily, and I've had zero issues other than trying to decide where else in the house to put the bulbs.

Easy set-up, had it working within 15 min. Love shutting off all the lights without having to go to each switch. Great setting for watching movies.
