This vintage color looks great in my bathroom. Very good light if you like to take bathroom selfies as it gives a very warm temperature in the pictures

These bulbs only work with the "WiZ" app. The app isn't very good and God help you if you try to use their manual setup instead of their "automatic" setup (which isn't all that "automatic" in the first place) because it does NOT work at all. The "pulsing" is stupid as they seem to think we can all tell the extremely subtle difference between their single pulse and double pulse. I was unable to tell the difference and I tried really hard. The lights (once in setup mode) connect easily but that's where the real fun starts...
First, the connectivity to the app is spotty at best. Lights don't show their OFF/ON status all the time. Second, lights often don't react to commands from the app or react slooooowly. An example would be me trying to dim the bulb and the bulb just doing nothing until the fourth try when it suddenly decides to work.
I have about 16 smart bulbs and 8 plugs in my home not including the WiZ bulbs. All of them work flawlessly, were easy to set up and react quickly to voice commands (using Alexa) or commands sent from the app. Every single one of those bulbs cost at least half what these cost. They all use "cheap Chinese crap" and yet they work. Every. Single. Time.
I also want to make the point that it isn't my Wi-Fi strength. I have an access point that is less than 10 feet from both bulbs. Cheap plugs and bulbs are able to see the Wi-Fi easily from MUCH further away (thru walls and doors) and I've checked the strength - it's full.
To put it bluntly, these cost more than they are worth. I bought them for the vintage look and the extremely warm color. When they work they are beautiful. When they don't, they make you want to scream and threaten them with a light switch. Yes, it takes me more time to control these via voice or app than it would to just get up and flip a light switch. That's just ridiculous.
I gave this an extra star for looking so cool because let's be fair, they are and if they worked the way they were supposed to, they'd be worth every penny.

Couldn't get it to work. Tried several times. Even Tech support couldn't help me out.
