The bulbs and bridge are phenomenal and more than pass my expectations. They aren’t the brightest or the cheapest but all in all they work extremely well and are always reliable and the colors are excellent. Makes me reconsider switching out all of my...  Read More

The brightness percentage is very accurate. You can use one as a reading lamp without having the room brightness at the same level.



Cons

The bulbs are unusable because the shut off and turn on randomly. One of my bulbs has a permanent flicker, not matter which socket the bulb flashes on and off. They failed to warranty the bulb. They cannot be used in enclosed fixtures.

The philips hue app isn't very user friendly. It doesn't work with siri or apple homekit. It only works in the alexa app.

    The smart button lets you program 5 different scenes so that you can cycle through them with just the button

    Nothing compares to the hue lights yet
