Customer Ratings & Reviews

These bulbs are great. They work very well with Alexa using either the Echo Dot or Sonos with Alexa. Bulbs can be dimmed or brightened. The light is bright but not harsh. They can also be programmed through the HUE app or Alexa to dim at certain times to improve sleep quality. I have had no problems with the lights failing to work properly and Installation and activation is simple but tech support is knowledgeable, if needed.

easy to install, works great with Alexa, nice way to add dimming capabilities to any existing light fixture.

It’s bright and you can dim easy to set up and cheaper

I have these Philip Smart Bulbs throughout my large home and they are great. Easy to set up and have Alexa turn them on or off for me! Great price at Bestbuy when they are on sale! I even have (3) of these Philip Smart Bulbs on the outside and they work fantastic, as I can operate them when I am away from home which is super! For my money, Philips Bulbs are the best period!

I bought a few of these bulbs to see what they're all about. I have them installed in a desk lamp and an uplight in the living room. The Hue app lets me control the brightness very well, and it's really nice to be able to dictate a desired power level to Google Home and have it work its magic. It's clearly a gadget, but I think it's very well priced (especially if you already have a bridge from some other purchase).

We got our first smart light with the Echo Plus since then we have purchased another 5 or so. It is so great to just walk in, tell Alexa to turn on a lamp or hall light or whatever, and it's on. They can dim with voice command or by app, and what we like most is to be able to get in bed and tell Alexa to turn off the light and poof! Lights are out! We love it!

Works great with my Show, also dims, works very well with command

Best smart bulb for the money. Long lasting. Easy to use.

These are high quality "smart" bulbs. They have a warm, rosy hue and dim down quite low (using your smartphone). Require a Philips Hue Bridge to work (the bridge is a special wireless access point that plugs into the back of your router, and then allows the lightbulbs to be set using your wireless network; the bridge costs maybe $60 and will support many bulbs and devices once you get it).

I've had these lights about a week now, and I absolutely love them. I wish I had one for every light in my house (and one day I hope I do)! Super easy setup with my iPhone and my Amazon Echo Dot. I love all the different features and dimmable settings, and if I'm gone longer than I plan, I can turn the lamp on for my dogs so they aren't stuck in the dark. Would recommend to anyone!

These are awesome. I never cared about these smart light bulbs.....but now the amazon echo can control them (very cool) and they are priced more realistically now. The color spectrum bulbs are 4 times this and I have absolutely NO need to have a color party in my house for 60 bucks a bulb. But the white only ones are AWESOME and work well with my phone, iPad, and Alexa on the Echo.

Easy set up. Nice bright bulb easy to dim. Works well with Amazon Alexa.

I have both the white and color Hue bulbs in my installation and both work perfectly. Configuration is easy and the white bulb has all of the white color temperatures - warm white, cool white, sunlight, etc. Easy to interface with Amazon Alexa, and I don't use a hub since the Echo+ serves as a mostly-universal hub.

I bought a couple of these white dimming bulbs for rooms that didn't need to have multi color. Places like the bathrooms, office and wash room. I like the fact that I can control the brightness of those rooms and be able to toggle them on and off after leaving the room if I have my hands full or I might have left the room for something and forgot they were on. With a swipe on my phone or using Alexa I can easily turn them off without having to worry about it. For the price of these bulbs, I think it's worth having a couple around the house I normally would not have had them.

I purchased the Phillips Hue Starter kit just to see if I could get it working with Alexa. Had so much fun with the 2 bulbs that came in the starter kit that I bought this additional bulb to use in one other room. Love asking Alexa to turn on the light before I enter the room. I like how they turn on slowly and "dim" off rather than a quick on and off.

I love having these hooked up to various lamps and ceiling fixtures around the home. I admit to laziness but it is fun being able to turn off the living room lights from the bedroom; or just for fun, being able to activate the lights through Alexa while FaceTiming with my kids from another state. I like the out-of-home access Hue provides to improve home safety.

I really like our Hue system. Although it's cool using the system as hands-free light control via voice recognizing devices like our Echo, I really like the automated scheduling and off-site light control features. Gone are the old days of clunky plug-in mechanical light timers that were not only absurdly predictable but could get completely thrown out of sync if a power outage occurred during your absence. Now, when I'm away from home, I can set several different times so lights appear as if they were being manually controlled. If a power outage occurs, it won't affect my lights at all when power returns. These lights are typical 60-watt brightness. They don't have a very bright or a white high color temperature but they get the job done. And when they go on sale like the bulbs I just purchased here at Best Buy, you can add extra remotely controlled bulbs all over the house. You only need one Hue bridge. Once you have it, you can add lights all over on different schedules and voice-commanded by different names. No complicated setup is required. I took the new bulbs home, inserted them into my lamps, powered them on, launched my Hue smartphone app, found the new bulbs in the app and added them to the bridge. That's it.

This smart bulb system has been working great. The setup was easy and only took a couple of minutes. The Phillips app is a little clunky, but I don't use it much anyway. I generally just tell Alexa to turn by lights on which bypasses the Phillips app. I have used the app to set the lights to come on and off at certain times, but that's about it.

This will change your life for the better. Do you ever come in the house after work and it’s dark and you bump into stuff trying to turn the light on? Yeah, not gonna happen anymore after this. You can even dim the brightness by saying a certain percentage of light. By far my favorite smart item.

I love the Hue light bulbs! They’re amazing with how they can dim to whatever your % preference of lighting you want and gives me assurance that I can turn lights on and off from afar with the Hue App and my Amazon Alexa Echo Plus. So highly recommended for friends and family that I got some of these bulbs as Christmas gifts!
