I was skeptical about buying these lights because they are expensive, but since most of my lights are Hue lights in my house, I wanted to control my ceiling fan lights and regular size Hue bulbs wouldn't fit. These lights are small, but bright and I can dim them with the Hue dimmer remote.

Purchased these to go in our paddle fans. Nice to be able to adjust the brightness either with the Hue app or with Alexa. Only thing to watch out for is that these bulbs are just a bit longer than regular fan bulbs so it can be a tight fit to get them started into the socket.

Another great Hue product by Philips

These E12 LED lamps from Philips deliver Hue smart controls to a nightlight-sized fixture. The lamp itself is larger than a standard filament-driven nightlight bulb, so be careful when sizing. I purchased these for a specialty table lamp, and they work perfectly on my existing Hue hub for smart home controls across Amazon Alexa devices and Apple HomeKit. Only negative is the price. These are nearly twice the price of a standard Hue lamp.

This is a great product. We have completely changed out the bulbs in all of the fans throughout our house. The convienence of using Alexa to turn lights off an on around the house hands free is a game changer. My only but...is the price. I look forward to these hopefully coming down in price in the future. At this point it become a pretty substantial investment pretty quickly.

Needed a candelabra bulb for outdoors that could be controlled via WiFi. Other options were to completely replace the light fixture or use unreliable day/night censors. This surprisingly held up well, even in negative temps. It is pricey, and I’m not sure how long it will survive in the Chicago winters, but it works great and I have had no issues thus far.

I have multiple HUE products and I love how they work. Every device works the way it is designed and the Geo Fencing is wonderful for when you come home late at night. The different bulbs give you different options on what type of light fixtures you plug them into. Ceiling fans, recessed lighting fixtures or other standard lamps around the home/ office.

As with all other Hue products, this works great, easy to install and fits perfectly into our Hue home. Definitely on the pricey side though.

We purchased 6 of these lights for our two outside carriage light figures on both sides of our garage door. We have an existing Phillips Hue System with hub. It couldn't be easier to install and add to our existing HUB. Our outdoor garage lights now go on and off at sunset and sundown without needing to buy or install a timer. Really is "set it and forget it." I only wish they were less expensive and were a little brighter.
One observation: Our garage door area is fairly distant from our Phillips HUE HUB / wifi. It is best to first plug in each light into a socket that is NEAR the hub and then ADD them to your system using the Hue software. Once added, we moved each light to the garage door fixtures. We have done this for several lights and never had an issue.

I was tired of burning my fingers with regular light bulbs and had been wanting to make my room tech savy since getting my Echo. I was very hesitant in buying this at first because of the price, but let me say that this is WONDERFUL!!!. Even though it does not change colors, I still have the ambiance of colors that I can go from a white to a dark brown to a light blue. I bought two for my bedroom and it is 10x brighter than the regular bulbs I had, I can touch them without the fear of burning my fingers, and I can also control them with my Echo. Hands down 10/10.

Bought a few of these as companions to the set of A19's that I already owned. Adding them to the Hue Hub was as easy as installing any other lightbulb and opening the app to place them. My only negative about them is that they aren't as bright as the A19 bulbs. These are better suited for accent lighting but I wouldn't trade them for anything. I love having lighting that I can control from my seat or turn them off or on when not home. Definitely worth the price for me!

I realize these are not made for outdoor use, however, I've used them in an enclosed outdoor light fixture that has been wonderful in regards to it's function. Before we have to remember to turn the lights in every evening or keep them on for several days if we were out of town. The hue lights can now be set up to automatically turn on at sundown and automatically off a sunup. It's worked perfectly. They're bright enough as well. 6 lights won't run you too much.
