Good news is that this was an amazing deal of the day but I'm afraid that they must be discontinuing if it was discounted this much. Setup was really easy (much easier than with all my Lifx bulbs) but this works on bluetooth vs. through router so although easier to set up...you have no control unless you are within 35 feet of the bulbs.

I like the item and the concept. I wish is was wireless and not bluetooth unless I'm missing something. I was able to add to my google home but control from outside the home I have not gotten that technical yet . I was able to schedule the lights and add some cool colors to a back room. Good item would need to test some additional features.

Neat light bulb. Pretty cool you can customize the light settings to have different color temps via the app. It is Bluetooth enabled. Just sucks that you cannot control the light from a remote location other than within Bluetooth range.

This light has potential to be really good... it has a wide range of whites to choose from the only issue is the responsiveness with the app. Sometimes it shows it is on when it is off... and I was trying to show what it can do quickly changing but my saved settings were thrown off.

Wanted get some automation inside our home, and got this product during daily deal. It is fairly easy to set up. Scheduling interface app is a bit confusions for to use but overall, the app allows a lot of flexibility. Would recommend it.

A really simple to use smart light bulb and doesn’t require a bridge to be able to control on your phone. I give this product four stars because the color tones aren’t so defined

It was good for a while. But doesn't seem to work 2 years later. It gets really hot if used indoors.

These are borderline at best. They would get only a 1 star if it wasn't for the brightness of these bulbs. The app absolutely sucks! Bulbs connect 10% of the time.

These Seem to Have Disappeared

I bought about 6 of these and I loved them. You have to install an app on your cellphone to control their color. You group them (like say all the bedroom lights may be one group, the living room another group etc) and set the color display you want for each group. I loved being able to change the light color at a touch on my phone. Sadly after moving them from one location to another, I could no longer get them to work in unison. Also it seems some other brand is winning out in the marketplace and Ilumi is hard to find anymore. But-they were beautiful, low power usage, and fun.l

You might need help with these bulbs. It involves downloading an app to your cell phone to use the bulbs properly. The download seems to be in a phone I do not have now. I should have given more thought to this purchase BUT that's my error- not Phillips

You don’t need a hub which is convienant. Just download the app on your phone, it’s user friendly! I use it for my dogs when I come home a little late, I scheduled the light to turn on. Love it!

Purchased this bulb to be used with my Amazon Echo Plus. Bulb worked well but was not compatible with Amazon Echo. Called Illumi tech support and was given a very lengthy patch to make compatible. Decided to return bulb and get a Philips Hue that was out of the box compatible.
