Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

They are a bit brighter than the lamps they replaced, too. They are more expensive than the other companies that have a photo cell but those only allow one bulb per fixture to be operable.

Love them so much. Just with they were priced a bit more aggressively. The switch placement in my house isn't fantastic so my phone is really convenient. And philips products are my favorite even though they tend to be on the more expensive side.

Cons

Only yellow bulbs by hue are typically around 8$ so the two pack is somewhat over priced. The inability to get to a single digit number accurately makes me drink. I wish they would stand behind their product and at least offer a discount for loyal cus... Read More

Bluetooth app does not automatically switch off alarms. This means you have to manually reset your alarms every day. Philips is banking on a bluetooth bulb of intentionally limited functionality to convince you to shell out for a bridge.

Shipping

Works well, and got it fast enough.

Delivery was exactly as ordered - ordered 8 lights and received 8 lights.

Took some time, but i got it in a few weeks.

Packaging/appearance

Bought these bulbs as new but when i received them, the boxes seemed like it was already opened.

For example, the chandelier that came with the apartment i'm renting is non-removable, and has over 15 e12 sockets; i've had to... Read More

Competitiveness

Without it you can only use the phillips app, which means no simple voice control, and no way to control other brands or more t... Read More

If i had to spend my money though, i’d buy a different brand for half the price of this one.

The different colors war brighter than cheaper competitors products.

The only problem is they blink periodically compared to their incandescent counterparts.
