Philips Hue 2-Pack Premium Smart Light Starter Kit, 16 million colors, for most lamps & overhead lights, Works with Alexa, Apple HomeKit and Google Assistant, Soft White

Lights are not color matched, one provides significantly cooler (more blue) light than the other. Work as advertised but color temperature mismatch is significant.

The bridge stopped responding and the lights do not work now

Very easy to use, especially with the integration of Siri and Google assistant.

Great color and brightness

Amazing lights, can do any color you want

My main reason for buying this was to give a party atmosphere with colors continuously changing. It turns out the iphone app from Philips doesnt do those continuous transitions. There are an amazing number of features with this system, but none of which I particularly wanted. I spent about an hour setting up the system and getting acquainted with the ecosystem, and another half hour learning the $5 iConnectHue third party app just to get the continous transitions I wanted. Then its still 20 seconds of fiddling with the iphone to change modes. On the bright side, I received the 4th generation bulbs with the white rings on the bottom. They do seem to have good color rendering; look almost as good as incandescent at lower kelvin. I decided to return these 2 bulbs and hub and get some standalone bulbs that cost much much much less and have their own simple remote. I think Ill hold off on adding more security vulnerabilities to my network until IoT has matured a bit more and economies of scale take hold.

Works exactly as it should... Its losing a star due its lack of affordability.

Love these lights. I thought colour change wouldnt be a big thing for me but I love being able to change them at night to blue, which gives me light to see but still leaves the room feeling dim. And being able to just leave the apartment and know my lights will turn off automatically is a wonderful feature.

Although at first glance it may seem a bit expensive for some light bulbs, but these are seriously worth the money. Ever went to bed and forgot to turn off the lights and then having to get up after you tucked yourself in all nice and comfortably? I sure have! Gone were the days when I had to leave my cozy bed to turn off the lights. Gone were the days I tumbled and fell cause I cant see waking up in the middle of the night to use the restroom. Super easy to install and lights can be controlled using your voice, phone or watch. So many colors to choose from to set the mood. You can even set scheduled hours for when the lights turn on/off or set it so that it turns on when you get home. I havent experienced any problems with it so far. No disconnecting issues. Nada. Highly recommended! Brightness: 5/5 ***** Google & Alexa Integration: 5/5 ***** Ease of Installation: 5/5 ***** My Recommendation: 5/5 *****

Absolutely Amazing!!! Gotta do the entire house!
