Pros

These are excellent smart led color-changing bulbs. They synch very nicely with goggle. They display the different colors well (not all rgb smart bulbs do), so glad about that. Price is pretty phenomenal for 2 smart rgb bulbs.

The meross wi-fi smart light bulb is a fantastic addition to any smart home setup. It has an impressive range of vibrant colors that can transform any room's ambiance.

At maximum brightness, even in colors, they seem much brighter. The bulb is about 10 percent longer than a typical standard bulb. They are very bright when need be.



Cons

Customer service is non-existent, and their help articles are confusing and fragmented. Baffled because it’s not a limit of the hardware at all. Wi-fi not the source of problem, the software is defective.

It's own app rarely can find it. The instructions are useless and the app is useless.

I love the meross light bulbs, app it's easy to manage, they are not the cheapest ones, yet, they serve good and are durable.


Installation was easy, scan the bulb for homekit and then screw the bulb in and the rest is downhill from there.

Price


However, the price isn’t terrible and the three that work are great.


Not a huge deal, but i wasn't aware of this when i bought them, as i am new to smart lighting.

Packaging/appearance


I liked these bulbs, but just as i received them i had to pack up and move, so determined that i would probably not need them i...  Read More


I purchased 3 boxes total, but did have to exchange 1 box due to defective bulbs - one bulb was physically broken and another m...  Read More

Competitiveness


I have both apple (siri) and amazon (alexa) devices within my home and these lights work interchangeably with my homepods and echo dots.


They are a great replacement for the more expensive name brand bulbs and work seamlessly with apple home


Bought these as a cheaper alternative to philips hue.


I picked these bulbs because i had some problems with other smart bulbs made by a different company.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It is kind of tricky to scan the bulb because of where the qr code is located so i suggest resting it on a counter or bed so you can have a good chance to scan it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The first was a name brand bulb bought at a big box store
