    So many color and mood options, started out with the white bulbs but switched to the color when I saw all they could do. Still trying to set up the different automations one the app. The cost is pretty extreme for just 1 bulb but filled all the lights in my house with these bulbs and looking at the outdoor options for the future.

    Bought Sevetal of these bulbs over the past four years; more two weeks ago to add to lighting scape. Oldest bulbs burn dusk to Dawn 7 days a week and still burning brightly. Great lighting for the holidays and your favorite sports games. Pricy, but worth it.

    Great bulb and does not require phillips hub. I got 3 for my bedroom and I can definitely see the difference between these and the old ones I had installed. Great product and compatible with my Amazon Alexa. Overall I am satisfied with the product but it’s really overpriced, @ $50 for 1 bulb.

    Super easy to install and connect! I ordered seven and I’ve had them for about a month now. Honestly no major problems. If I had to complain about something, it would be the fact that there’s a slight delay whenever I turn the lights on (just like the A19’s) but it’s not a huge deal. They really should start selling multi-packs though. They can get pricey.

    Set up for this light was a breeze, just like every other Hue product. The colors shine surprisingly bright despite having a frosted black glass lamp shade, very happy with how it turned out!

    I've used a few different smart lights over the years, and Hue is the easiest to use. Yes, it's a little pricey, but it just works, which is more than I can say about some other smart lights out there.

    Triple the price of the all white ones but nice to have color choices. When wifi modems didn't have enough to run alot of wifi devices Hue had a point with the hub but now a days the price is alittle ridiculous for a smart bulb if you have a modern wifi modem. Still hub is a plus in most cases. Had to buy an adapter so it would fit the ceiling fan as it has a more standard plug but less room for a full size bulb. These are tall so check your clearance.

    Expensive but I think totally worth it. Bulbs have a 2 year warranty. Bulbs with color are more expensive than ones that just have variations of white. All the bulbs work with the HUE hub (required) and can be controlled y the phone app or through Amazon Alexa or the Google Assistant device. The app can be set up to control the bulbs remotely (internet connection required). You can control them individually or as a group (like 3 bulbs for a fan or a whole room that has multiple bulbs in multiple devices). You can even use voice commands to change the color (using basic ROYGBIV colors). I've had some of my bulbs for about 2 years now and I add a new bulb to the network every so often.

    Great bulbs. Very easy to set up. (I have a hub). The hue app allows for the full potential of the bulbs to be used. Better HomeKit integration would be nice but it covers all the bases. Price could be better but if you got the money they are a good buy.

    I bought two of these and put them in some vintage stained glass lamps. Beautiful and Magical, are words to describe how it transformed these wonderful lamps with the Hue Bulbs. Any color, any brightness, you pick the mood you want. I use them with my Alexa's, super cool.

    I placed these into two stand alone lamps placed on my fireplace and paired them with the rest of my Hue setup. The variety of smart light types and sizes contribute to a nice ambiance from these little babies.
