This product is a figurative pile of horse manure and a literal waste of money that is completely useless. Sure, the lights did connect to my Nest with the Google Home app after spending about 20 mins initially trying to get it to link. After that the lights changed color wonderfully for about 5 minutes, all while very inaccurately matching the described color in the app. After that 5 minutes had passed, the lights decided to take a break from listening to me at all, quicker than when your siblings decide they don't need to listen to you anymore- right before they get themselves into a mess and come back to you crying for help. Like actually, these bulbs just stopped responding. App, voice control, gentle caressing...nothing worked. They would not turn off. They would not change color. They would not dim. Think about everything this product promises on the box and imagine none of that working whatsoever. And there you have it, the perfect description of these lights. The lights simply turn on from the wall switch to their default white setting and turn off from the wall switch as well. That is it. You may use these lights as normal white lights and that is it. Nothing else will work. You may be thinking to yourself "isn't $45 a bit much for a normal white light?" To that I resond "yes, Captain Obvious, it is, the lights are useless." If you don't understand anything else from this, just understand that. For those of you wanting me to tie this back to my sibling tangent: no, these lights did not come running back to me. It's kind of hard to do that when you completely stop responding.
The support team suggested I factory reset the brand new product I received 25 minutes prior to taking it out of the box. The factory reset procedure is an intricate system of turning the light switch itself on and off multiple times while waiting a certain number of seconds before you flip the switch. While the support page is so kind as to teach you how to count (they tell you to count using mississippis), I chose not to go down this annoying and pointless road by turning off all the lights and counting to ten. I do not wish to play hide-and-seek with these bulbs and further encourage their nonsense. Doing so would be establishing a relationship with them and I would rather establish a relationship with a toilet scrubber. Also, this product is brand new and basically everyone says the exact same thing has happened to them. I thought my experience would be different, I thought what I'd have would be special. I thought wrong.
As for my final rating, one star is too high for this plastic, ice cream cone shaped paperweight. Since using stars in the first place implies there is something good about the product, and since for the aforementioned reasons there is nothing good about this product, I reached out to Amazon suggesting an updated rating system of poop emojis for this smart light. Amazon rejected this proposal; however, if poop emojis were a thing I would give this product a final rating of zero (0) poop emojis.
Let's be honest, I know I don't review a lot of products here so I'm aware that my opinion may not matter much to you. Indeed, I've only reviewed one other product on Amazon (an amazing paper plate, link in my bio, buy them they're amazing). But the point stands: this is a horrific product.
Update
Called customer service and they were extremely helpful and patient. Got my lights set up and working reasonably well. The light now works through the Cync app ALMOST every time. Working with Google Home is not hit or miss. Cync says the issue is on Googles end and I believe them but the lights still do not work well enough with the google assistant to recommend. Lights are not really something that you want to gamble on working.
I'm very pleased. Easy to set up especially with Google. I can set them up in the Google home app but I set them up in the GE smart app. The colors are excellent. The difference between Philips hue and the GE's light bulbs the color spectrum is the same but the brightness in some colors is not as bright as the Philips. I also have LIFX and a couple spots in my house the LIFX are the brightest of all colors. But they cost a fortune as well. So the areas where I have just soft white Philips hue bulbs I'm replacing them with the GE smart bulbs colored. They work flawless I have no issues they don't go offline they're stable as the Philips hue. I would definitely recommend it especially if you're getting into a smart home. But definitely try other products. Figure out which ecosystem you're going to go with and buy your products based on whether it's Amazon Alexa or Google home or Apple. A lot of frustrations people buy products that don't work with a certain ecosystem. Do your research but I do recommend these bulbs to anyone
