Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The bulbs have a specific qr code that allows scanning for easy pairing. Apply the power, add the bulb and regroup the bulbs. I love the look of the edison bulbs but needed something that was smart but not an outlet.

The bulbs are bright enough to light up a room very well. I tend to like things on the darker side, so the brightness level works for me. I have it set at a 3% blue, so if i need to get out of bed for something, i won't bump into the walls. All the sp...  Read More



Cons

They say they last up to 13 years, but 3 years hardly seems like a good value or environmentally friendly. Do not buy. Absolute waste of money.

Packaging/appearance


Completely different packaging, and the box and manual make it very clear a zigbee hub were required despite what the listing o...  Read More


I bought it used & the person who returned it returned it with the wrong packaging code.


Each package contains a brochure with the link for apple home set up.

Competitiveness


The sylvania smart bluetooth a19 filament soft white light bulb worked great for me and the price was more than agreeable since...  Read More


I've used the cheaper brands and find they don't connect well and the colors are off.


Much quicker than other big name label competitors.


I couldn’t find many filament or “edison” style light bulbs that work with homekit natively.
