I really like this product because the colors are exactly the same as the colors shown on the color wheel. The colors aren't too dim nor too overwhelming and I honestly believe it is worth the price.

Terrible product, doesn't work. I don't know if it's the app or the bulb or both, but they don't work "together" as they are supposed to with regards to any automation or scheduling. Turning on & off or changing color settings & brightness from the app, in real time, no problem. The app is very clunky and disorganized, not user friendly at all. I found 3 different ways to create schedules, all different and none worked. More specifically, they wouldn't save. Tried multiple times over a week and no go. Couldn't even rename the bulbs or the group, wouldn't save. The only settings that ever saved were the initial setup settings. Reviews seemed mixed, so I took a chance... I've seen reviewers that didn't research product features/intended design/operation and didn't know what they were getting and therefore were disappointed or they just weren't technically apt. This is not the case, read the reviews on the app store too. Was worse than I expected even after reading other's reviews.

Doesn't really work. Runs for a little bit then the app loses communication. If they perfect this it would be cool.

These lights are one of my best purchases. The free app gives you multiple light display settings especially for different holidays (Halloween and 4th of July are awesome)!

Great lights. They add fun to any gathering. Many different colors and options. They play to the music which is very cool. Overall, worth it.

The app was not user friendly and we were unable to control the color of the light or change the colors. We turned to you tube for help and found many other people complaining of the same issue. I returned the product.

absolutely terrible lightbulb

If all you need is a lightbulb to turn on and off, then this one works fine but if you were looking for scheduling and other automation, run don't walk from this one! I thought maybe some of the reviews were just being harsh on an imperfect product but that is not the case. Big difference between imperfect and terrible, this one is terrible. After your initial set up you will not be able to save any of the settings, the name anything or really use it other than by turning off your wired switch that it's connected to.

The concept is good but the software is too buggy. I am in to tech and always trying new technology. I thought I'd give this outdoor light bulb a try over Phillip or Lifx. Connecting it via app is frustrating. I tried the workaround way for connecting that was recommended for iPhone and no luck. After spending 2 hours resetting the bulbs, connecting and disconnecting, I gave up and returned the 3 bulbs to best buy. I ordered the Lifx and am now waiting to try that out.
