> 24 hourThe range of colors is much better than the older bulbs - I upgraded a few and some colors are clearly better (such as Green). Wish they would cut me a break on the price though - still pricey.

> 24 hourMy wife and I have had these bulbs for years now and they are awesome. They add so much style to any room and they have lasted for years. They are pretty bright when you make them white and work great with Alexa. They also are very efficient.

> 24 hourI love coming home with lights on in a nice muted blue that does not attract bugs. Easy to program. I have them in my living room (normal white lights), front and back porch.

> 24 hourGood quality and color changing is very nice. However price is very high considering it is just a light bulb. Also 800 lumen is not bright enough, in a room you would require to have at least two bulbs if you need decent lighting. Low brightness takes away the fun of mood lighting because with some colors, your room appears to be in dark even with three bulbs in the room. Connecting to hub and setting it up is easy. Philips definitely needs to make bulbs brighter with next version, specially if they want to compete with better lights like Lifx 1100 lumen bulbs.

> 24 hourThese are not my first set of Philips Hue bulbs. Ive been using them for a about 2 years now, slowly outfitting my house with them as I find them on sale. Currently, I have 19 Philips Hue bulbs (A19 and Candelabra types) in use with another 10 BR30 bulbs being delivered to installed in my kitchen/dining room. Ive got them linked to my Echo, IFTTT, Apple Home Kit, and even to my Nest cameras. Setting them up is pretty easy using the Philips Hue app. They work as designed, are quick to respond, and have a wide color range palette. Creating schedules is very useful. The latest update that allows you to configure their last power on behavior has been a huge improvement to the system. Before the update, it was annoying that all my lights would turn on after a power outage or would revert to the default white if someone accidentally hit the light switch. Nothing like being woken up at 3am from all your bedroom lights turning on at full blast or coming home to find all your lights on. This new update minimizes this from occurring (itll still happen if the power cuts in and out multiple times in short order). If there is one thing the app could improve on next is adding the ability to choose color temperature and the ability to copy custom made scenes from one room to the next. If I had any suggestions for improvement in the bulbs themselves, it would be to offer a higher light output. A 75w or 100w equivalent A19 vs their current 60w equivalent versions would be great! They serve the purpose, but they could stand to be a bit brighter (especially when behind a lamp shade) since I use them as my primary light source and not as an accent piece.
