Pros & Cons

Pros

The wyze bulbs are an easy way to add wifi controllable lighting to an older house. The functionality and performance of the bulbs are above and beyond what i expected for the cost.

They work flawlessly and have added so much convenience to my life. After i set them up, she has no trouble using them and they've simplified her daily routine. Does as advertised.

Even in my dimmable switch. The range in brightness and color (warm or cool) is really good for creating the ambiance you like. Brightness adjustment 1% to 100% without need of dimmer switch.



Cons

After 2 hours of messing with it, the aws internet connection got * up. The only solution is to delete the devices in the app then add them again. I have no idea why wyze needs access to everything on my phone just to enable some lightbulbs.

Wyze bulbs for me have a failure rate of 80% and higher. Fixing seems to require deleting the bulb from the program and re-pairing. The bulb creates a weak insecure wifi connection, only does 2. The worst off-brand wifi bulbs work better.

The wyze app is buggy, unintuitive, generally atrocious and needs to be completely revamped or replaced. The rules are extremely buggy and inconsistent.

Competitiveness


One reason i chose wyze is because it's owned by amazon, so i expected this to be a little better.
