    Easy setup and very bright. I paired these with a Hues motion sensor and set up a routine that automatically turns the lights on at sunset and brightens them from 30% to 100% when motion is sensed. After 2 minutes of no motion they go back to 30%.

    Love these! I had lights on my garage that I wanted to be able to control when I wasn’t at home or was pulling up. They don’t have a switch (old house) so I got these and can control from my phone. Great buy and work really well.

    I bought these to replace some basic LED spot/flood lights. These work with my smart home system. These have better light and more functionality than the basic lights. Worth the price.

    Awesome Addition to Hue System

    I was super excited for these bulbs to come on the market. There were not as bright as the old flood lights I had in the fixture, but Hue allows me to put the flood lights on timers, control brightness, etc. Even though they are not as bright, they are definitely worth it!

    Although this is designed for outdoor use, I use it in the kitchen above my sink in a single recessed light bulb can. It is super bright. As with all Philips Hue light bulbs, set up was easy and works great out of the box.

    Wanted to be able to turn on/off my outdoor deck flood lights to see back yard without having to get up and flip the switch every time. Set up was easy with the Hue app. Also connected them to my Alexa Echo and now with just a voice command can turn lights off and on.

    These lights are literally brighter than the face of the sun. They looked identical to the bulbs that came in fixture assumed they’d be the same brightness only having WiFi capabilities. Was wrong as they are much much brighter. 10/10 can see entire yard.

    easily installed (with bridge and bulbs) and operated once you remember the names of various components, groups, and accessories. I'm using both Hue(with bridge) and C-Life by GE on our home network, but Hue is dedicated for all outdoor fixtures.

    Bought to be able to automate the outdoor lights in the front of my house. Connected them to my existing Hue setup and now my outside lights automatically turn on when o get home of off when I leave. They can also be setup to randomly or on a timer to turn on/off.

    Bought these to replace our regular flood lights not because we needed to but because almost all of our lights are Hue. These put out so much light and can be dimmed by telling Alexa or Siri. Also, now when I come home my whole house lights up inside and out.

    Super bright and barely any electricity usage. If you can, get the Hue bridge if you don’t have it and you won’t regret it. I have these set to dim automatically at night for power saving and they work great.

    Like all products in this line, these bulbs are easy to install and set up with your existing Hue bridge. Operation is simple and convenient with either the Hue app, HomeKit, or the other third party apps for Hue lights. Very satisfied with my purchase.

    We bought these for to use outside and to come on and off with sunset and sunrise. They work perfectly with both HomeKit and the Hue App. Much easier with HomeKit for me. I don't forget to turn on or turn off my floodlights any longer.

    I have this brand of lamp scattered throughout my house. They are very reliable and long lasting (I've only lost 2 out of about 30 in 3 years). There is an app for your phone and works with Amazon Alexa.

    Overall happy with the purchase. The lights work as expected for a Hue product, and integrate well into my smart home routines/automations. The lights themselves are bright and illuminate a good area, though they are not as bright as some other flood lights.

    We had purchased two of these prior but when we went to add two more the system would not recognize them. I believe there is a limit on how many smart lights you can have connected, Wish all four would have worked because we loved the two. The only concern was they kept coming on during rainstorms, cloudy days

    This out in my backyard with my automated security system is the perfect setup to help catch the bad guys. It’s also nice not to have to keep on the lights when I’m gone at night and still not have to walk into a dark house.

    These Par38 ‘s and it’s 1300 lumens shine bright! I’m glad they’re adjustable to dimming. I normal use them at 70% and it’s perfect for my porch. Love how they’re programmed to turn on and off everyday. Just what I needed!

    Got these on sale and love them. Only needed three but got two two packs and have one as a backup just in case. So far they are great, nice and bright when we want and dim the other times of night.
