Philips Hue White Ambiance Dimmable Smart Filament ST19, Warm-White to Cool-White LED Vintage Edison Bulb, Bluetooth & Hub Compatible (Hue Hub Optional), Voice Activated with Alexa

There are an array of smart bulbs to choose from. Even narrowing it down to a smart EDISON bulb--tons to weed through. The quality, size, look and functionality of this bulb are top notch. My fixture used to have an old-school Edison bulb in it. This new bulb is far prettier. The curlicue filament is beautifully complimented by a magnified, heavy glass section at the bottom of the bulb (second picture). Full brightness is very bright (lights up the whole room) and can be adjusted as low as nightlight (full 0 to 100% scale) Highly recommended. Worth the money. QUALITY look. Great functionality. Alexa-compatible.

My wife wanted vintage style bulbs for our kitchen table light and hallway lights. She looked all over to find vintage light but everything she found had very low light output. I found these and they checked all the boxes for me and wife. 1. Vintage look. 2. Dimmable 3. Controllable through Hue app 4. Controllable through Google Home 5. Easy to set up These were a breeze to set up with my existing Hue bridge. I could not be happier with this purchase. These are not cheap but are definitely worth it.

I have 5 of these bulbs in a chandelier fixture in my dining room. They worked great for about 2 years, but then they started to randomly turn on. I would turn off all the lights, but one by one, each bulb would turn back on until all 5 were on again. Only way to keep them off now is the light-switch, which defeats the purpose of smart bulbs. After 3 years, the bulbs started to flicker -- mostly for a while when turned on but also just random flickers here and there. For the price and brand name of these bulbs, I had expected a product at Hues regular standard. I like the vintage look but not the vintage performance.

These bulbs look great when theyre working, but keeping them operating with Google Home is a headache. The bulbs are connected via Bluetooth without a Hue Hub, and every time theres a Hue app update it breaks the interaction between Goggle and the bulbs. They cant be found by Google and wont respond to voice commands or the Google Home app. Theyve broken three or four times in the less than 12 months that Ive owned them and it usually takes a trial and error of factory resets, cache clearing, app unistall/reinstall and physical light switch flipping to get them working again until the next update breaks them again. At the moment, theyre just extra expensive dumb bulbs because the only way I can turn them on and off is with the light switch. I hope they start working again sometime soon... considering I paid literally five times the price for these as I did for my Globe smart bulbs that have worked flawlessly since install over a year and a half ago.

I wish they offered build your own bundle prices, but this will have to do. Still great lights.

First of all, Hue is my favorite brand of smart bulb and Ive tried them all. Dont let this review stop you from buying one. Ive have at least 50 Hue bulbs and Ive only had problems with 2 total including this one, and Ive had most of my bulbs for 3+ years. So they are awesome, usually. This was a 2 bulb set. The other bulb is working fine, the problematic one has a manufacturing defect that makes it lose contact with the light socket. I thought the socket was the problem, but it works fine with the other bulb. Unfortunately I dont have the option to return so Ill have to buy another one

This just would not cooperate when trying to set it up. It is my 6th or so smart light and just would not be recognized. I tried all the troubleshooting steps about a dozen times over the course of a couple days until one time it finally just worked. Now it works great, and in fact at 100% brightness it is too bright to look at so it usually stays at ~70% when on.

Added this to our kitchen pendant light above the sink, it works like our other Philips hue bulbs with alexa and the Philips hue app, but does not change colors, only dims (which we were aware of). It would be nice for the price to adjust the warmth, as it is super super warm in color and not as bright as anticipated. It’s a bit pricey for the limitations, but it looks better for the the type of lamp and we are glad to turn on the light hands free while cooking or cleaning.

Set up was as easy as screwing in a bulb. Adding Hue lights are always also one of the easiest. My issue is the color of the bulb itself. Its way more yellow than Id like. Even when trying to change that, it still puts off a sickly yellow color. Im using this in a pendant outlet over the kitchen counter/bar area and it throws off the scene as it bleeds into the living room. I love the way the bulb looks; it looks just like the filament bulb I replaced, and its smart! But that color....

Lightbulb is really nice in terms of how it looks, the ambiance, and hue selections. However, it falsely advertised that it can integrate with Google Home. In reality you must have the Philips Bridge device to integrate with Google Home, which costs another $60! If you are looking for an equally good smart bulb that actually integrates easily with Google Home, we found that GE Cync bulbs work much better. They are also generally more reasonably priced that this one.
