I was concerned about the compatibility of these bulbs from previous reviews, so I purchased the Lightify gateway along with Philips hue bridge.First of all I set up the hue bridge so it was all working, then went to add a new bulb and at that point switched on one of the bulbs which I was very happy with when it was detected by the Philips hue.So I continued with the other bulb in my living room, 5 in total, and manually named the bulbs to names that were relevant to their position in the room.So I made a room, called ‘Living room’ and named the bulbs ‘Television Light 1’ , ‘Television Light 2’, ‘Lounge Light 1’, ‘Paul’s sofa light’ and then ‘Maxine’s sofa Light ‘.In the Philips app I grouped the bulbs in pairs,so ‘Television Light 1 and 2’ would have the same colour and brightness as they were both behind the television. I did the same with the sofa lights and left lounge light 1 on its own.So in the app you can adjust every aspect of colour, brightness and can make schedules to turn on lights at certain times etc.I like the Osram bulbs, and have since bought some white dimmable for hallway and kitchen and a physical switch, although everything is controllable from my iPhone/ iPad.So far I have had absolutely no problem with these bulbs, and the fact that I can control them through Alexa is great as well, and I can control them through my Harmony hub and Google from my Shield TV.I will continue to buy the Osram Lightify brand as personally I have encountered no problems with compatibility with them with either my Lightify gateway or my Philips Hue or my SmartThings but obviously you do need some form of hub / gateway to control them unless you got the HomeKit enabled ones and did it from your iPhone or iPad..

Drop the star because of the price which would be a bit eye watering if I was shelling out for it to be honest.That being said, this is a fantastic GU10 smart colour changing lamp that is a bit more expensive than the Philips Hue version but due to its shorter length fits better into the standard light fittings.Obviously it works with Hue - which I use - as it's Zigbee compatible. No worries there and it works just like my Hue lamps, which is to say, excellent.Now, I did read online that some people had issues and there is one small thing I had to do which was put the lamp close to the Hue when setting it up. Really close. When I used the Hue app to find the lamp even at just three meters from the hub it could not be seen.When I put it into a light fitting and held it close to the hub to try again it was picked up fine.Now, here's the thing. This is pretty pricey off the bat and that's because its colour changing - which isn't actually that hard to do with LED's - and for the same price you can get two Hue white light ones. And I've found that whilst the colour changing is kind of fun, to be honest I ended up with a white light as standard which, I suspect, most will too.Build quality is superb which is what one would hope for when buying something this expensive from a well known brand. Definitely on a par with Philips.So, if you really want a colour changing GU10 LED, then this is the one to go for because its better sized than the Philips one for fitting. If you are simply thinking about this on a whim, then think carefully because if you are only going to want a white light then save your money or buy two for the same wedge.

This is a Zigbee lamp and will work with the Alexa app directly. The instruction supplied are at best misleading but not neccesary.I had to reset the lamp by using the following instructions (exactly)Open Alexa app on phone and go to devices do not press add yet.Turn off the light bulb you wish to add wait 5 seconds.Now this bit is important so follow exactly.Turn on the light for 5 seconds then turn off for 5 seconds repeat this 5 times in total.I know it sounds stupid but I didn't make the bulb.Now click the plus sign on your Alexa app, thats the + sign to add a new device on the top right of the screenthe new light will (hopefully)start flashing it means that it is talking to Alexa and trying to connect.Follow the on screen prompts when connected to add to a room and away you go. It works!If you don't get the flashing bulb you probably miscounted the sequence, just go back to the start and do it again It will work.The Alexa app has the option to set colour using names that do not always relate to the actual colour it is not a fault of the lamp. To use alexa say e.g Alexa set First Light (if that is the name you have given) to Red. Or any other colour, try Set to Daylight, Warm White etc see the full list in the Alexa app. There is no timer function but it is half the price of the Philips Hue.If you are really lucky you may not have to set the sequence as I described above but from the comments I have read you probably wont be that lucky.

I've had the whole house kitted out with Phillips Hue lighting for the last couple of years with the exception of the hallway that has 16 GU10 spotlights.... Initially I bought the phillips GU10s at £50 a pop, but when it turned out they were too long to fit in the firerated downlighters I instantly gave up and returned them - mainly because the bulb cost for one room was already ridiculous.I saw the osram versions on offer at £26 a bulb and thought I'd try again. The end result is perfect, they do fit in firerated downlights and at near half the cost. Do note though, if planning to mix these with phillips GU10s in the same room they will look different and IMO it doesn't look right.The setup is a bit of a pain...I had to download a 3rd party hue app (Hue lights v2.9) and with all other zigbee bulbs off, connect 1 bulb, then force ''touch link'' it via hue lights v2.9, then disconnect it, rename it in the official hue app, reboot the hue bridge and repeat the same for the next one. Some bulbs didnt want to play first time round and had to be reset (with all zigbee bulbs and bridges off... turn light on for 5 secs, turn light off for 5 secs - repeat 5 times untill the light is on, it will flash - at this point instantly turn it off and back on, then try touch link again). It took a couple of hours to get 16 bulbs working... Still worth the hassle, just need to make sure the Hue bridge config is backed up - looking into how to do this now.

Since testing, Amazon have updated the page to show that this only works with Samsung Smartthings and the Echo Plus hub. It initially took a lot of frustration and looking up on other sites to realise that this Osram bulb cannot be used with Hue or the Echo on it’s own until I discovered a software update for the Hue, so it does work but only if you update the Philips hub first. Be aware that other products are reviewed alongside this one, so filter the reviews first.The Osram Smart + is another smart bulb designed to rival Hue and other bulbs that can use voice or phones to turn on and off or dim. My setup of the bulb took longer than expected as I had to first find out what this required to work.Eventually I got it working with the Echo Plus as it wouldn’t accept the Hue Hub and it worked well enough with a nice warm white and instantly responding to voice commands for dimming. After using for a while now I can say that it’s hard to tell the difference between this and the Hue bulbs once set up, but the setup is harder.It’s only later that I found, by chance, the Philips Hue Hub had a firmware update to use some new third party bulbs, including this one, though as it was working with Echo Plus I haven’t tried.As long as you are patient enough to go through the installation properly, this should save some money on the more expensive Hue bulbs and works just as well once properly installed.

After looking for GU10 Zigbee compatible bulbs that weren't £50+ each, I was happy to come across these bulbs recently launched in the UK. I bought 8 and fitted them in our lounge.Setup was simple with the hue system/app. Simply plugged them all in and opened the app, 7/8 were picked up. I had to then close the app and rescan to find the final one. Quite straightforward.They are a great bulb with plenty of light on the 'read' setting via the hue app. The colours are different to HUE bulbs, but the off tone I think compliments the room with the hue bulbs in our lamps. Because of the size of the unit and tech needed, there are actually several different LED elements to this bulb and switching colours is literally one LED off and another on,as each LED does different spectrums. This is disappointing as you can't fade/morph between colours like you can do with the HUE standard bulbs - probably because of the tech not fitting in the unit to do that. This means when changing colours you get a flicker. I've also noticed that occasionally the bulbs don't respond when using Alexa. I.e. 'switch off lights' and one might be left on, so I have to go again. This seems a slight bug in the bulb software.But ultimately hats of Osram for bringing a more reasonably priced GU10 to the market, and I would recommend these bulbs.

THe Osram Smart+ has one enormous advantage over the Philips Hue color changing GU10 bulbs - they are the standard length and fit comfortably in a fire protected socket. They are zigbee bulbs and they work with a Hue hub or direct with a voice monitor like Amazon Echo. They don't work with HomeKit so you can't control them with a home hub or Siri on your phone.One slight oddity is when you power them on there is a pause before they illuminate; this was noticeable when I powered them on alongside a standard white GU10 bulb the first time. The bulb can offer a variety of whites from cool to warm; and offers a good range of color adjustment (I controlled the light via Philips' Hue App and my Hue Hub.)Once the bulb is running it responds quickly to changes in settings and brightness.The Bulb uses 6w; which is fractionally more than the 5.4w of the hue bulbs; not so much you would notice it on your power bill. Color changing bulbs are great for watching films or accenting light for a dinner party. They don't match closely with Hue bulbs so if you are looking to replace the odd hue bulb that is reaching its end of life you should likely look to replace the set. At which point you get the Osram+ other good feature - they are cheaper than the hue bulbs.

I’m reviewing the E27 Classic bulb here and it’s an elegant, simple, no-fuss LED bulb that just works brilliantly. A simple replacement for whatever was there before, it’s elegantly shaped and not too tall so it doesn’t stick out of our uplighters. Control connection is super-simple as well; it seems most of the negative reviews of this bulb centre around the fact you need a hub or existing smart system to control it, and just having a standard Echo Dot isn’t enough, but as long as that’s understood, it’s fine.It gives off a lovely warm white light that doesn’t have any of the artificial yellow tones that can plague some bulbs.The light feels comfortable and natural and helps fill up our living room really nicely.The dimming is excellent too- nice smooth transitions, and capable of the full range of intensities, again it doesn’t suffer from the minimum intensity floor that other dimmable bulbs I’ve tried have had.At time of writing this bulb is selling for six quid, which is amazing for a dimmable smart-system-friendly LED bulb. At that kind of price it becomes affordable to kit out whole rooms and get your home lighting system being very smart indeed! We’re very pleased indeed with this bulb.

I bought these as a cheaper alternative to Hue bulbs for my bedroom. Easy to use but do not dim as low as the Phillip's Hue bulbs, as they are in a bedroom and in a fitment that takes 3 bulbs. This bothers me a little but elsewhere in the house these would be more than suitable, or where only one bulb is required for the light fitting.The range of colour is good but the bulbs are not as hazy as Hue bulbs when glancing directly at them. When used with a shade this would not be noticeable but if you are using a candle bulb without a shade you will see a difference. It is not unpleasant but different. I bought these on offer, on a flash sale I think,for less than 10 pounds and at that price they are amazing and would definitely buy more at that price. Closer to the price of Hue bulbs I personally prefer Hue. Also a bridge is required for them to work as smart bulbs. One other small gripe is that when first bought the olour temperature was different on one than the others. If powered off at the wall switch they can reset to different colour temperatures. This looks odd when they are all in the same fitting.They work well with my Hue Dimmer Switch and app.

I use this bulb with a Philips Hue 2.0 hub and once paired it functions just the same as a colour Hue bulb, with an equivalent lumen brightness rating but a useful cost saving.Other reviewers have commented on difficulties pairing it with the Hue hub, but I found it straightforward and didn't have any problems. I've also seen negative comments about flickering and whining noises (perhaps from other sizes, mine is an E27), but I can say that having used it for a few months now I've experienced no issues whatsoever.I have it installed in an upright lamp in my living room (grouped with with Hue pendant bulbs in the ceiling light) and control it either with the Philips Hue app or via Amazon Alexa /Google Assistant, also utilising IFTTT for maximum flexibility.Though I have no complaints I have docked one star due to the element of doubt introduced by other's experiences of poor longevity. It may be cheaper than a Hue bulb, but for a light bulb it's still not cheap! If you can live with this potential concern, it's recommended.

I bought this set to install with a Philip's hue set up. You NEED a smart hub to set this up. Without it, they're just regular warm light bulbs.Installing them was not too difficult all you do is turn them on and search for them in the Philip's hue app. Once found add them to a room.However, setting them up with Alexa was difficult. You have to ask Alexa to search for new devices. Then rename them in the Philips hue app and ask Alexa to then control them.Sometimes Alexa doesn't control them fluently like she would with Philip's hue bulbs however it can work.Also controlling them from the app they are not vivid fluid. They are snappy. Once you turn them on or change colour,it will take a split second for it to work. Unlike hue bulbs they are vivid fluid and work flawlessly.A good pint is that they are brighter than Philip's hue bulbs. However on specific colour settings they show a different shade than the hue bulbs.I bought these on a massive discount. So they were worth it for me.

Just as responsive as the Phillips bulbs when used with the gateway. (I tested using the API on the gateway and setting the transition delay to 0s so I could snap from cold blue to hot red instantly. There is no noticable delay when doing the switch. I compare it to my philips hue bulbs and both work the same).The bulb I have is the white tuning one (not full colour). So you can go from icy blue through pure white and over to dark red. The price is half what the phillips bulbs are and they look just the same. When the bulb is off and you look DIRECTLY into it, you can see the LEDs in a circle, but from an angle you can't see them. When the bulb is on, you can't see the LEDs at all as you are blinded.If you look from the side, you also can't see the LEDs. I suppose on very dim you might be able to see them if you look directly into the bulb rather than from an angle, but I haven't tried. I don't really think it's a concern. The price is so good, you can't go wrong.

Purchased Jan 2020 from Amazon, this review for “tunable white 2000K-6000K” version. Running on Smartthings Gen3 hub. (Zigbee.) After three months in service, I find this to be an excellent bulb and significantly more affordable than the main competing brand. At 6 watts output, it is more than bright enough for use in a table lamp – in fact I normally run it at 60% output as it is too bright on full power!Unlike older designs, this bulb starts instantly and its colour temperature is stable. There is no hum or buzz. Heat output is very low so it appears to be safe in fabric lampshades, as pictured. Response to Zigbee controls is pretty much instant, no dropouts or other reliability issues at all.Pairing to Smartthings was seamless, the system recognizes this bulb for exactly what it is and provides the correct function set without additional device handlers.Good points: Value, build quality, reliable. Bad points: None.Sum-up: Recommended

I have just bought one. Initially it appeared to be difficult to pair with my tradfri hub but actually very easy. To get it to work you need to use the pairing system for the tradfri. Take any existing paired steering device (dimmer switch etc) and then go into the tradfri app and add a new device. Hold the steering device about 2cm from the bulb hold down the pair button and switch on the bulb. It should flash and the ikea app will find it as "classic b40" etc. or similar depending upon the spec of the osram bulb.As the tradfri app is a bit junk it will then report it can't see it anymore or it is off. Ignore that.Go to Alexa and search for a new bulb (tradfri type NOT osram because you have paired it as a tradfri)and the app will find it if your tradfri account and alexa are paired. You can then rename it in alexa to whatever suits.You can then use alexa as you do with your other tradfri devices.

I wanted something to play with as a backlit for the TV and this was on sale, I got a Hue starter kit on Black Friday and was looking for a cheap way to expand. Before I ordered it I read the reviews here and followed the set up process that someone had listed, turning off and on 5 times for 5 seconds to reset it and pretty much thats all I did for it to be picked up as an Extended color light on my hue. This does mean that it doesn't work with HUE Sync but was on sale for a tenner, otherwise its pretty good, I prefer the Hue official bulbs, but at the price I could deck the place out with theses and have remote control. I have heard updating the firmware might cause problems, but haven't tried yet,plus I'm not sure how you would do that with it on a HUE Bridge with a non Hue bulb so I might not bother.
