    I love them in my dining room chandelier. I totally wowed my guests a Christmas dinner. My only problem is the big white base on then. While its definite that they are needed they take away from the elegance. But dinner and dessert mood lighting well worth it.

    Works with the rest of my Phillips hue lighting without fail. Colors were incredible and controlling the lights with Alexa is very straightforward.

    This is a nice bulb as far as light bulbs go. This would be cool for holidays, but I doubt that I could justify paying $50 each for enough of these to fill the chandeliers in my dining room or foyer. The app is the best part of the Philips ecosystem because you can customize them any number of ways from brightness to what time they are turned on and off. All in all, this is a good bulb and if you aren't worried about budget or if you only need a couple for table lamps, I would say go for it. Other than that, I would probably pass on this.

    Like most Phillips Hue products, this candle bulb doesn’t disappoint. It offers a range of color that includes the soft candle-like ambience, bright functional, and silly colors most people would never want in a “candle”. It’s fun to set odd colors, like blue in a traditional chandelier, but the real magic is in setting it up with the perfect shade that allows you to forget that it’s just a light bulb.

    The hue light bulbs are great. This is my 6th hue light bulb and I can't be more pleased. The whole functionality is great and easy to use. You do need a bridge to make this work though.

    I have probably bought 20 hue products this year. These bulbs work just as well as any of the other ones and allowed me to finish out the lighting in my Den. Couldn't be happier!

    It is just an LED light bulb unless...

    Philips - Hue White and Color Ambiance E12 Wi-Fi Smart LED Decorative Candle Bulb - Multicolor has been promoted as a breakthrough in lighting and technology, however at the end of the day is merely an LED light bulb unless you have the Philips Hue Bridge. Without this piece of technology, these bulbs are nothing more than extremely expensive LEDs. You can not change colors or control them without the Bridge. Since this package comes without the Hue Bridge, it is only recommended for someone who as already invested in the Philip Hue concept and has the Bridge from a starter kit.
