Great product!!! Next level stuff.
I 💕 💗 these lights. I picked this kit up from the Amazon Treasure Truck in December as a Christmas present for myself. I’d been studying the concept & products. Philips is my preferred brand & it’s worth it. The special pricing made this a no brainer. I wish I’d purchased more. It’s definitely more economical to buy a kit with four color bulbs. Hubs are required.I recently got around to setting it up. It was relatively easy. The most challenging thing was plugging the hub into my router via Ethernet in addition to an electrical outlet. The router is not in a convenient location on the upper level however, that spot is apparently great for transmitting the signals.I set up one bulb in the living room & another in my great room/entertainment area on the lower level. The Philips Hue app makes it simple to pair the bulbs with iPhone. It allows you to select from millions of colors. You can set up routines to control lights. The optional geo fencing setup turns on the lights when I approach my home. I hate coming home to a dark house. I’m also using Alexa to control them.It works seemingly via magic…Bluetooth. I named the lights similarly in addition to a smart plug on another lamp. Therefore, my instructions to Alexa must be clear.It is weird to have two systems (TP Link plug on KASA app + the Philips Hue system) but it’s okay. I definitely would not introduce a third application. I contemplated using HomeKit but I don’t have Apple TV & I’m happy with my Echo Dots & Fire Sticks. Keep it simple stupid.The lights give my mostly white walls dynamic color without the commitment. From the street, passers by can see a warm glow. The app has recipes for light schemes (Aurora…, Savannah Sunset, for example) if you don’t want to select colors on your own. It’s cool to mix colors on lamps in close proximity of each other.It’s true you have to leave the lights powered on & allow the app or Alexa to turn the bulbs off or dim them. I’m hoping Georgia Power doesn’t take all my money next month.The other two bulbs will go in my owner’s suite utilizing 3-way lamps. I’m hoping this will be a no drama set up as well.Bottom line, I recommend these highly. It gives my home more warmth & personality. They’re easy to use & amazing. I look forward to expanding my collection.

It works great (UPDATED DECEMBER 2020)
Updated as of 2020:In my original review I said I was going to return them. I never did return them though. I stuck it out (mainly due to laziness. I didn’t have spare lightbulbs at the time and I figured I’d go to the store and change them out next time they stopped working but soon after there was a few updates and they luckily got much more responsive) and after some firmware updates these have come a long way. They work incredibly well, they’re incredibly responsive at all times, there’s no problem reaching them or getting them to respond, and the UI of the app itself is extremely well integrated including a widget with my favorite combinations on my iPhone XS’ home tab.It has also integrated to Alexa so my original hope/goal of rendering the light switch obsolete indeed came true. I haven’t touched my light switch since 2018. As an added bonus I’m a gamer, and my entire setup is Razer controlled. Razer has also added the ability to sync the peripherals and Philips Hue lights together through their Synapse software. I don’t use that often, but the ability to is there and the few times I’ve tried it were really fun.So yes, this has been a 5 out of 5 purchase and I’m glad to have gotten them. I can control them through my phone’s widget, the hue app also on my phone, my voice by using alexa, or my computer by using synapse. It is responsive every time and works without delay. And they’re still going strong years later. They can dim and brighten to a degree, go through every color, work in sync with each other or display different colors and brightness individually and affect ambience heavily.The original review is below, as is the picture attached, but remember they’ve updated tremendously since I posted my initial review and I’m mainly keeping them for archival purposes but with all the firmware updates since then the original review holds absolutely no value and I’ve changed it from 2 stars to 5 stars.=====================================ORIGINAL REVIEW PUBLISHED ON JUN 4, 2018 BELOW=====================================Title: It works great – when it works at allRating: 2 out of 5 starsI was hoping this would make my light switch obsolete.But the lights are often “unreachable”…when turning off the lights is impossible while laying in bed, then this product has failed its purpose. Guess the tech isn’t quite there yet. Picture posted. 4 lights. All unreachable.Btw. Changing “channels” does nothing to fix it. Not for me anyways. 1 month of constant problems that this product did not grow out of. I’ll be returning this in the morning.

Adorei as lampadas, e a instalação é bem fácil. Você só precisa ter uma boa internet em sua casa. Senão a Alexa não acha a conexão. A minha estou consertando esse problema. Pq minha casa é comprida. Mas amei a compra, só espero que um dia o preço melhore. Obrigada!

One if the light got fused a minute after I installed. Was nightmare through support, who gave me old model..with bad packaging with filament tear…then again the same old model second time. I had to thank my stars for this pathetic support and stay contended with it.Noone knows how to setup with TV..forget about Dolby Vision. I had to teach them…how to configure Andoid to TV to Wifi.Works with OTT TV content for light senses..but not with Movies on prime, netflix,hotstar,etc. Has to do with some encoding.For Dolby Atmos, although my Sony TV supports it..the Philip’s Hue App ecosystem is poor. You would need an HDMI adaptor for dolby vision to work…but not guaranteed since their support themselves does not know..I was given the number if their head technician..even he was clueless.I use it with spotify music and occasional TV show music/dance programs.Dolby Vision is still a distant dream.

Estuve pensando la compra de este producto durante mucho tiempo, pero estoy bastante satisfecho. El Starter Pack contiene justo lo que necesitas para iniciar tu casa inteligente, un Bridge o Puente que se conecta a tu modem (cable incluido), cable para toma de luz y 4 focos de color. Puedes cambiar las luces a supuestamente 1600 tonalidades diferentes, y se pueden controlar mediante la app de Philips Hue o por voz (personalmente, lo tengo conectado a HomeKit con Siri y es bastante sencillo de usar, responde adecuadamente a comandos como prende o apaga, cambia el color a tal, prende estas luces cuando pase tal, etc…). El precio es elevado, pero si quieres iniciar tu iluminación inteligente, es un buen punto de entrada. Si cambiar los colores no es lo tuyo, también existe a menor precio un paquete que trae luces que solo cambian en tonalidades de blanco y naranja, solo trae 2 bombillas pero contiene también el puente necesario y es muchísimo más barato. Contento con mi compra!

De los 9 focos que compré solo se me ha fundido 1 en 5 años y si los uso para fiestas cambio de colores y todo. Excelente producto, son caros pero valen cada centavo… he probado otras marcas steren basura wiz buenos pero la diferencia de calidad hace que estos valgan la pena, el colores es más bonito y la facilidad de uso es notable.

Aunque ya conozco y disfruto enormemente de los focos Hue, tenía el bridge anterior. Con este kit, además de haber recibido 4 nuevos focos Hue de color de 4a generación, se incluye el bridge que ya es compatible con HomeKit de Apple. Los focos de esta generación tienen mejores colores aunque sean de plástico. Otra cosa importante es que no se prenden inmediatamente si uso el interruptor para apagarlos y prenderlos; es necesario esperar un segundo antes de volver a prenderlos con el interruptor para que enciendan. Eso sí, desde la app Hue o desde Home los focos se controlan, prenden y apagan de inmediato. ¡Vale mucho la pena este kit!
