Philips - Hue White & Color Ambiance A19 Bluetooth Smart LED Bulb - Multicolor

Had these for multiple years. They work great. Never had any issues.

The colors are fantastic and offer a myriad of scenarios!

This is my second pack of the bulbs. The first pack I bought with the hub. I love them! I love how I can set their colors on the app, set up a room on the app where it knows which bulb is which, and you can make the colors VERY bright - almost fluorescent! However you have to be on wifi to use the app, and I am normally on my cell service so I have to always switch it to wifi. Also when you unplug the lamp that the bulbs are in, or shut it off, the colors go back to being white. So I have to go back to the app, turn on wifi, and change the colors of the bulbs. If you always use the same colors, it shows circles of the last few colors you used, so you can just click on them to assign to the bulbs instead of finding the exact shade you want on the big color wheel every time. The bulbs are a sturdy & solid build. I haven't had any issues with any dying or breaking, and they seem like they will last forever...*knock on wood*! They better though, because they are expensive lol! Good thing I had a coupon & best buy rewards! In my attached pic, I have them set as fluorescent pink, green, and blue. The room is also getting illuminated by a huge blue LED light strip all along the edges of the room on the floor. The colors go awesome together. :)

I've had 3 philips Hue bulbs since 2015. I have not paid attention to "new" bulbs and related tech behind them because mine have worked great and they haven't had to be replaced. Recently my 4-year-old and some neighborhood friends were over and I played some music and used the hue disco app on my phone to make the lights sync with music. They loved it and wanted to have more "dance party's" so I thought I'd add a few more bulbs to new lamp I added to the basement recently. To my surprise, the tech has come a long way since 2015. I never realized I could not get a rich "green" color with my old bulbs. I found myself cycling through the color wheel amazed at how vibrant and bright these bulbs are. My original bulbs model is LCT007 and the new ones I got are LCA002 for reference. Pros: Rich vibrant color Long lasting bulbs (assuming they meet or exceed previous model) Cons: Expensive Overall I highly recommend these bulbs. The HUE app is easy to use and easy to pair new bulbs to the bridge. My only complaints are more with software than the hardware. For example the Philips Hue Sync software is supposed to sync music and videos to your lights. It does and works, but unlike the Philips Hue DIsco app, the transitions in color and not smooth. It's very choppy and can be hard on the eyes. However that is obviously software, not hardware. It syncs with Alexa for convenience too.

I have several of these bulbs in our house, they are very reliable and work great!

I just love my hue bulbs. I am gradually turning my home into a smart home. The color bulbs just adds a little something different to whatever room you are in with a little bit of accent. They are a bit expensive, which is why I am doing a room at a time. Other than that they are great.

Phillips hue lights my home. Saves energy. Smart home technology has spoiled me. Great products.

I always thought it would be cool to have a color changing RGB bulb. A couple months ago, I got one and I loved it and immediately began thinking about purchasing more lol So I did a couple days later! I kept asking myself, why didn’t I purchase this sooner?! It’s such a game changer for a room’s atmosphere. The color range is great, I love the presets they have programmed in the app and you can save your own color combinations too! If you’re thinking about getting these lights for fun or to adjust your lighting if you work long hours on the computer and need something more comforting for the eyes, totally go for it!
