Greater than one weekI have a lamp in my office that I historically had an Edison bulb in and the fixture was connected to a Wemo plug. I’ve the years I’ve gotten rid of my Wemo plugs and put in Hue bulbs to avoid having so many devices on my wireless network. However, I was not able to do it with this fixture until this bulb was released. Once I got it, I screwed it into the fixture and it failed to turn on. I tried other fixtures and it worked fine. Upon reading some reviews I found many people had an issue where the bulb could not screw in enough to connect the the base to provide power, so I gave up. However, a few weeks later I looked at the fixture and found a piece of metal in the base that I was able to bend up. Once I did that, I was able to screw in the bulb and it worked! Overall a great addition to the Hue family.

> 3 dayIt might just be because I haven’t quite figured them out yet but, after install one of the two lights I purchased constantly loses connection. I should note that I don’t have a hue bridge and control the lights exclusively through my Alexa hub. I don’t even have the hue app. Other than that, the brightness is good however it’s almost blinding if the lamp faux filament itself is exposed, which as an Edison bulb I think most people like to be able to see the fiber optic filament. Not an issue though because you can control the brightness and even at its lowest (like 1%) it still gives off a decent amount of light. Pretty fair price as well. I should note that they are made of glass unlike other smart bulbs so be careful unpacking.

> 3 dayI would have given five stars but the blue tooth connection does not work great at all times. Also I thought I would be able to control away from home. But I’m still really happy. Have had lots of compliments on the color of these lights. The amber color it really nice. Just beautiful.

> 3 dayI bought three of these bulbs in 2020. By 2022, all three have become defective. Two begin flickering when on (annoying) and the other randomly turns on when off. Working with Philips customer service is slow and frustrating. All other Hue bulbs have been great, but these are not worth the price.

> 3 dayI own a number of hue lights throughout my home. I originally had the Hue White Ambient lights installed in the light fixtures, but wanted something that had the warm amber yellow and overall more comfortable feel in the dining area. I really like the clear class around the light, and it gives my light fixtures a nice rustic look. Easy to install with the hue app. They get surprisingly bright yet still comfortable to the eye. A little expensive, but hue lights, in general, are pricey.

> 3 dayI love Philips Hue products but these didn’t make the cut. I bought them for my clear glass pendant lights over my island. They worked perfectly but the light they gave was too warm/yellow for the location. These, in my opinion, are better suited for accent lighting, not task lighting. They weren’t bright enough or “white” enough for the lighting most people want or need above a kitchen island.

Greater than one weekNot very bright, but my wife really likes them in our backyard lamps. Definitely not good if you are using them for security lights etc.

> 3 daySome people dont like the color in these reviews but I love it! It gives a beautiful golden light thats perfect for the evening. This bulb is Goldie Locks, not too anything - its just right. Be advised that this bulb needs an extra step in some Routines (Hues App) as its not recommended in some native routines like Wake Up. If you want it to come on, you need to go into the Routine and select it again after adding it.
