Pros & Cons
Pros
Seems like it is expensive, but these things have seriously lasted years without any hiccup at all. Jumped on them and absolutely love them.
W makes a huge difference in brightness. The brightness is better than the standard hue bulbs but not crazy bright. K is the brightest by far. It's brighter than the 60w equivalent.
My favorite light scene in the galaxy is where almost every light is set. An expensive setup but cheaper and less permanent than running new wiring in a 140 year old house lol. Even my outside porch and door lights are hue automated.
Bulb is heavy, solid and feels like ‘a high quality thing’. What really sets this bulb apart is its smart capabilities. Bright and reduces my eye strain while studying.
It easily connects to my google mini in which i can just turn it on by voice activation. Controlling interface is goos as well. The default philips hue app is a bit lackluster but not the worst. I appreciate that they integrate equally well with alexa... Read More
Cons
The bluetooth stopped working after 50 days, less than 2 months of use! Now it only turns on on the brightest setting which is blinding for a bedroom at night/morning. Moved it to other outlets same issue.
Lumen bulbs are fine for the missus and the kids, but blinding for me at full output. To my disappointment, it was already set to maximum brightness.
Highlights
Quality
Amazing colors, easy to set up, it’ll last a few years minimum as all of my other ones have.
Great product, the 100 watt replacement is a very welcomed upgrade.
No hue bridge and never using the bluetooth/wifi functions on the app so can't speak to any of those functions.
These need to be continuously powered to work.
Price
I love it even though it is a bit pricey for just one bulb.
The recommended price for these bulbs is vicious.
Seems like it is expensive, but these things have seriously lasted years without any hiccup at all.
The price will sting, but the results make it worthwhile.
Packaging/appearance
I received an alexa for christmas that came with the phillips hue white (a19) light and it was way too yellow for our liking.
Competitiveness
Setup was as easy as i've experienced with other hue bulbs.
I don’t know the cri but the quality of light is noticeably higher and more natural than other high lumen bulbs.

However these bulbs in combination with a hue tap and dial switch operate as easily as any ‘switch it on at the wall’ type lighting

This is a very bright bulb when operating in the 34white34 part of the spectrum

When set to colors it is still a lot brighter than a typical 800 lumen hue bulb but far from as bright as it is when white
