Candelabra Perfection!

Put these in my Candelabra Dining Room Chandelier, and I can now create whatever ambiance suits our dinner mood! If you're not into the various colors, they can be simply used as dimmable normal lights. A tad pricey - like most Hue products - but watch for sales, and then pick them up at a discount. Regardless of price, I love these, and as LED's, they should last for years.

The bulbs work great - exactly as described. They are bright and colorful and work well with the app. The only downside is they are expensive.

The use case of these lights is pretty specific. I purchased them because they were on sale, otherwise, I wouldn't have sprung for them - Philips really needs to lower the cost on these some to truly drive the value home.
These particular lights have been placed into a stylish lamp, which is why I bought them, otherwise, I wouldn't have sprung for the exorbitant cost. If you've got the disposable income... get 'em.

Great item despite being overpriced and a bit complicated setup. I needed to search how to make the colors change as instructions are not provided. Needless to say you have to create scenes through the hue app and then have alexa discover the scenes. Even then some of the colors it doesn’t display them as they were created through the hue app. Either way still cool.

Hue always hits it out of the park and while it is usually overpriced, it is a quality product that works as advertised. I put these in some pendant lights over kitchen counter. The ambiance you can create with Hue is unmatched. These little lights are pricey, but if you’re already invested in the ecosystem, they are 100% worth it.

really like that this size/form became available for my ceiling fan. it's slightly bigger than the normal LED bulbs of its size, but managed to fit in the ceiling fan in my dining room. highly recommend to those who own Hue bulbs and need this size/form.

Bought a bunch of these while on sale for our chandelier, expensive but they work well. The "white" box - not sure how they differ from other Hue non-white boxes, but they integrate and were sealed brand new like all my other bulbs.

YES, on the fan, on the bedroom, great lights to have. Great mix with Alexa music for the bedroom mood. Brighter lights then the old 40W bulbs and less Wattage.

I’m assuming this bulb is expensive because of its small size. Works good though (like all Hue products). Catch it on sale and it’s a fair price.

Only thing that would prevent me from ever buying this again is the price but if you can get a good deal on them then they are definitely worth it
