Smart Light Bulbs WiFi Bluetooth 5 0 Work with Alexa Google Assistant App Control Color Changing LED Bulb

These work perfectly. The app did not require extensive set-up and was easy to figure out. These are my first Smart home device, other than Alexa. I discovered that the 4 bulbs show up on the app with their own name "blub4ef5" or whatever (not a typo on my part, I think they meant 'bulb'). I renamed each bulb according to location. Two are main lights in the ceiling fan in my master bedroom ("Main 1" and "Main 2") and then on either side of my bed ("My Bedside" and "Guest Bedside"). They're easy to adjust. I quickly figured out how to set my own scenes. A few tips: 1) Do some Google searches, and quick screenshots for the images of the lighting setups you'll want to keep. They have a few, but I'm extremely visually oriented, and I wanted my own. It was easy to select the screenshot for the image and use accordingly. 2) Do a long-press on a scene to edit it. You can edit their pre-made ones, or make your own. I made a few, including having only one overhead bulb on at 10% called "nightlight", etc. My favorite, and the main reason I purchased these, is for my wakeup routine. I've been wanting a sunrise alarm clock for several years. Unfortunately, the ones I've tried are just not right. (I feel like the princess and the pea!) I can't stand the brightness of most clock faces, or any lights in my bedroom while sleeping. However, I often wake and need to see the time on a clock, so that I'm not forced to check the time on my phone. Then, many sunset alarm clocks have a really long "sunrise". It was orcing me to wake up like 20 minutes before my alarm! Yet, setting my alarm forward 20 minutes could very well result in a bad/late morning. And, with my long COVID, I really need to protect my sleep. I seriously only need like a 2-minute graduation of lighting, which these handle very nicely (5 second, to many minutes increments are available). I've now set up Alexa to start a special light scene just for my wakeup, with a 2 minute graduation on only my bedside lamps. Then, she wakes me up nicely. She tells me some good news, turns the lights up all the way, and plays some music. It was terrific this morning! I had to set up several routines for Alexa to turn on and off my lights, and several specific lighting scenes, but it's all done. I'm happy. No more getting up mid-virtual meeting to turn on lights in these darker months. No more annoyingness in turning my "guest side" lamps on/off across the king-sized bed. If I was out of town, super easy to create the illusion I'm home. Because my office is in my master bedroom, I'm going to experiment with timed lighting setups to go with my pomodoro sessions, with the hope of visual reminders that I'm supposed to be focusing. ( 😜 Mega-spaz, here). The app could use a few tweaks to functionality, like copying a scene, to perform minor changes and re-name. But seriously, for the price, these are terrific. Longevity has not been tested yet. 🤞 Read more

I wanted something to wake me up at alarm time that slowly lit my room in the dark morning of winter. I looked into those sunrise alarms and not one had stellar reviews, didn't require subscriptions or didn't come with 18 bells and whistles I didn't need. In the words of Gru, "light bulb", literally. Why not try just a light bulb to wake me up and keep my regular alarm which I have no problem with. This thing works like a charm and I am in love! App is easy, stays connected, and I set it for Monday through Friday when I am supposed to wake up for a gradual sunrise and over the course of 15 minutes, it's slowly illuminates my room waking me up. Best product ever for $10! Read more

1st time ever getting Smart Bulbs. I actually ended up getting a 2nd set. Doesn't need a hub and comes with a remote. I really like the different light modes, especially the one setting where the lights are red and sporadically turn off and on like in a 90 horror flick. The modes definitely can inspire some really cool light modes come holiday season. They definitely get really bright on the natural default settings (either warm or cool lights) and they seem responsive enough. The issue I have with them sometimes is the app will sometimes have issues connecting to the lights if ever there's a power failure or ,if for whatever reason my router goes out (thanks Verizon), it just has a bit of a hard time reconnecting to those lights again. Also, the widget you use on a iphone can only go in the very left main window where they have those rows of widgets (as of iPhone OS 15+) instead of any main window. Besides that, as long as you have pretty decent wifi connection, using the app with these lights are fine. Added bonus that you can also use the remote without wifi to control the lights as well. And the inital installation is pretty straightforward. Great smart bulb starter kit for those apprehensive on getting on the Smart Home train. And it supports Alexa Read more

I am changing my review to 5 stars because these lights are quite nice. I originally received my pack of 3 bulbs with 1 broken bulb; however, their customer support responded within a day and I had a replacement bulb sent to me within a couple of days. The replacement bulb seems to be a newer model (the packaging had gold lettering, whereas the original box of 3 had green lettering) and shines slightly brighter; however, the difference is minimal and isn't a huge concern. The lights are very easy to set up, and they have a variety of color settings. The "main" light as I like to call it, comes with a "cool" white color, and a "warm" white color, much like you'd think of your phone screen. The warm is perfect for night time settings, and the cooler color is perfect for the day. The white color is very bright; however, they can be dimmed which is extremely convenient. There is also a wheel on a separate tab so you can determine how "warm" you want the white to be, if you'd rather not use the 2 settings that are given on the main color wheel tab. The color wheel of lights is amazing. There is so much customization you can do with it, and I love it. The colors aren't as bright as the white's; but again, I have no problems with this. I don't mind the dimmer colors, it helps set a relaxing but fun mood. It is perfect for when I want to play video games or watch Netflix. I find the app very user friendly. I've read some reviews that say it's confusing, but the instructions are very well laid out and are quite clear. There are many different options I have not tried yet, such as music and other timers on the app, but the lights are great and they have many options. My only hope is that they last a long time, and if so, then this would be one of my favorite purchase. Time will tell for their longevity, but for now, I am very impressed and would highly recommend these lights! Read more
