Customer Ratings & Reviews

Overall I like the concept of this product but I do find that it disconnects from my WI-FI occasionally and I have to unplug it and plug it back in to find the network.

Overall it's ok but I dont like sometimes u have to reset the light because out the strength of your internet. Sometimes it is slow to start and turn off

Absolutely love it.. take it anywhere listen to music

Google mini and a smart bulb for just $35? This price was too good for me to not have any second thoughts!

The light bulb and google home bundle came in handy for a head start on my smart home.

Google - Smart Light Starter Kit with Google Assistant works like a charm and is easy to set up

Speaks clearly and understands all I say . I'm trying to get Alexa and Google to have a conversation

Bought this for a friend she loves it and uses it a lot! Wants more!

The Google Mini works well with the Google Hub. The lights are easy to install with the Google Hub app.

Together, the Google Home Mini speaker and smart GE C-Life bulb is essentially a starter kit for someone who is looking to introduce basic smart lighting into their home. By themselves, the Google Home Mini speaker is a wonderful personal assistant, whereas the GE C-Life bulb is a very limited smart bulb. With that being said, if you’re not wanting to spend an exorbitant amount of money on high-end smart bulbs but do want to have a good LED lightbulb with basic smart lighting capabilities, than this kit is a great start. What makes this kit great is the included personal assistant speaker. After connecting it to the internet, you can make simple commands or ask any question and the speaker uses Google to answer your question or execute your command. If you haven’t adventured into the world of using a personal assistant, even on your phone, having a stand along speaker and connected light bulb is a good way to become familiar with this technology. This best part about using Google instead of the other available smart assistants (Apple’s Siri, Amazon’s Alexa, Samsung’s Bixby, and Microsoft’s Cortana) is its ability to understand “naturally” spoken sentences. This means you don’t have to memorize any specific commands; you can simply say, “Hey Google, can you turn on the dining room light?” Also, the Google Home app is widely compatible with many brands on the market. So, if you’re thinking of getting one of those automated robot vacuums, you’ll easily be able to pair them and use your voice to start vacuuming. Overall, the Google personal assistant speaker is a very useful device. The included LED bulb is a basic smart bulb with dimming capabilities. There are other GE C-Life bulbs that also offer white color temperature variations, such as bright white, cool white, and warm light, but this kit includes the standard warm color bulb. In comparison to other warm lightbulbs, this GE bulb does emit a good bright warm color. Regarding its “smart” capabilities, it’s definitely meant to work mainly with the included Google Home Mini speaker. Unlike other smart bulbs, which are connected directly to the internet using Wi-Fi, this bulb needs the speaker to stay connected. The bulb and speaker communicate using Bluetooth. So, if the speaker is too far away (beyond 40 feet) or powered off, than the bulb can’t be controlled over the internet. Meaning, you can’t switch the bulb on or off either through the Google Home app or by giving a command to the speaker. These limitations may be a hinderance to someone looking to setup a complex smart home lighting system, but to someone looking for basic automation, these bulbs accomplish the task. Overall, the kit was very easy to setup and use. The included hardware (speaker and bulb) is made well is good quality.

Is a fun product my kids love hear music, control smart lights, with it.. But sometimes it gets off line (don't know why)

My daughter loves it especially she can turn on/off the lights by just asking Google.

Work well as expected. Fast delivery and good product

I bought this at best buy because it was cheaper than walmart and then I recieved 2 extra lights free

Very easy to setup and I like how simple it is to pair the light without the need of a different app.

Lights bulbs are great. They help out alot. We have 3 of them and hope to purchase more soon.

I bought this for my mother in law and she loved it! Nice and affordable for a last minute gift.

Fun little gadget for the price I got it on sale. I have a echo so now two things to compare and see which I like better.

Got this for my teenager daughter that uses it for everything. Definitely well worth it.

This kit is a great way to start making your home futuristic.
