Alexa Smart Light Bulbs, WiFi Led Light Bulb Work with Alexa&Google Home, Dimmable RGB Color Changing 2700-6500K Smart App Control (2.4Ghz Only), A19 E26 9W (60W Equivalent) 800 Lumen,1 Pack…

I'm gonna list Pros and Cons, but overall these light bulbs are an excellent value for the money. They're life-changing and I'm happy I purchased them. You should just know a few things about them before you buy them. The most important thing is to make sure you set your WiFi up to 2.4 GHz if you want them to work. Your Internet Service Provider can help with this but I described this in more detail in the CONS section below. Overall, I do recommend buying these, as long as you understand what you're getting and how to use them properly.PROS:1. BRIGHT, BEAUTIFUL COLORS — These light bulbs are relatively bright (very bright when in white mode, a somewhat bright for colors). The colors are very rich and beautiful.2. THESE BULBS WORK PERFECTLY MOST OF THE TIME — I have these in every room of my entire house and they work great 90% of the time!! To best use these with Alexa, you need Amazon Echo Devices. I personally have an Echo Show unit in every room of the house. I have them set up with the app and they are configured with my Alexa so I can use my voice to turn them on/off or change their color (which is life changing for sure!).3. CHANGE COLOR OR TURN ON/OFF MULTIPLE LIGHTS W/YOUR VOICE FROM *ANY* ROOM — You can also adjust them and create custom colors and scenes (where the light colors gradually change). With Alexa, I can change all the lights in the room at once (example "Alexa, change the lights to red" or "Alexa, change the lights to 30% brightness"), or I can change one bulb at a time (example: "Alexa, change the couch lamp to blue").4. SAVE ELECTRICITY, CONVENIENT OPERATION (NEVER USE A LIGHT SWITCH AGAIN) — These lights are LED, so they are very low wattage. So you can have a lot of them on at the same time without running up your electric bill. It's also a big energy saver to be able to just say "Alexa, turn off the lights" and all the lights in the room turn off. Or if you're in another room, you can turn off the lights in a room you're not in. For example, if I'm in the living room but forgot to turn off the bathroom lights, I can say (from the living room) "Alexa, turn off the lights in the front restroom" and they instantly turn off without me having to go to the bathroom to turn them off.CONS:1. From time to time (not super often), one of the light bulbs will stop responding to Alexa. Usually, if you turn the light switch off physically and leave it off for like 5-10 seconds, it will start working again. This only happens maybe once or twice a month, and usually only to one of the bulbs.2. If you use a physical light switch a lot, the bulb(s) connected to that switch will sometimes reset themselves, and so you'll have to go back in and get the app to recognize them again. I recommend against using the lightswitch if you have a smart bulb connected to that switch. Just use your voice or app to operate the lights (turn them on/off) so you don't run into this problem. In fact, I actually put tape on certain light switches so I remember not to use the switch, and that helps a lot.3. Some colors don't match what they're called as closely as they should. For example, if I say "Alexa, change the lights to royal blue," it goes to kind of a medium light blue color. Royal blue should be a deep, rich, darker color with a slight hint of violet. Just one example. Some of the colors match perfectly. For example, if I say, "Amazon, change the lights to salmon," the color is just what I'd expect, a perfect balance of pink and orange with moderate saturation. So the colors vary. Main colors like red, blue, green, pink, cyan, purple and orange all look the way you expect them to, and look beautiful and rich. It just is hit or miss with some more unusual colors, that's all.4. When the internet goes down, so does your ability to control the lights. If you have your lights set to blue and your internet goes down and suddenly you want to find the remote and need more light, you're stuck with blue light and can't change them to white or change their brightness until the internet comes back up. Our internet goes down maybe once a month, so this isn't a huge deal, but it does happen. Also, I think you can set the Power On Behavior for each bulb in the app, so if you want the lights to return to being white light if you flip the switch, then you can set it that way and you won't have to worry about this issue.5. These light bulbs are ONLY compatible with 2.4 GHz WiFi. They won't work if you connect them to a 5 GHz WiFi network. To get around this, usually your internet service provider (Xfinity, in my case) can help you set your router so there is an additional 2.4 GHz network you can connect the bulbs to. This way, the rest of the devices in your house (like your phone, laptop, etc.) can still be connected to the faster 5 GHz network.6. If your bulbs are too far from the router, they may not work and you may need a WiFi repeater to make sure the WiFi can reach those bulbs. I haven't run into that with this brand, but I did run into it with some of the other smart bulbs I've purchased, so just something to keep in mind.7. I do think because of some of the quirks and limitation, the price could have been a bit lower. The price I got them for was a pretty good value for the money, but I think they should lower the price further due to the reasons I've listed here.Again, I do recommend these and I'm glad I got them. Would buy them again, for sure!!! Just know what you're getting into and buy these mindfully!

This is one of my favorite Amazon products ever. I have installed these lightbulbs into all of the lights in my house and I am able to control from my phone to color, the dimness, the hue, i can set a timer to control the time the lights turn on and off and I can control all of them from my home. I am obsessed with these lights

As someone who is always looking for ways to upgrade and streamline my home, I was excited to try out a set of smart light bulbs. And for the most part, I have been really happy with their performance. The bulbs are bright and provide great coverage for my living space, making it easy to see and do tasks. Plus, they were a breeze to install - the instructions were clear and the setup process was simple.However, there has been one major issue that has been plaguing me since I installed the bulbs - they seem to get disconnected from my home network all the time. I'm not sure why this happens. I know that to reset and put them in pairing mode, you have to turn the power switch on and off in a certain combination, so maybe if I accidentally turn off the switch instead of through the app, this is causing a restart? It's not uncommon for me to have to go through the process of reconnecting them every few days, which can be a real pain. It's not a deal breaker, but it's definitely something that has been frustrating me.Despite this issue, I still believe the smart light bulbs are a good investment. They are more expensive upfront than traditional bulbs, but the convenience of being able to control them remotely and integrate them into my smart home system is worth the extra cost. Plus, the brightness and ease of installation make them a great choice for anyone looking to upgrade their lighting setup. I like the ability to change the color of them in RGB mode.In summary, these smart light bulbs are a solid choice for those looking to bring some smart technology into their home. Just be prepared for the occasional disconnection issue.

I needed a bulb that I could leave on while watching tv but wasn’t so bright. I like how it has a variety of colors as well as white and soft white. It’s also dimmable so I can change the brightness. It can also be programmed to turn off by a certain time or set a schedule. Just download the app & very easy!

My brother had voice activated lights in his home, and my daughter fell in love with them. I purchased these for her room. They were pretty easy to set up, with the small exception of one not registering immediately. They seem to be working well so far. I downloaded the app, And connected them to Google home and Alexa. Both work great.
