I've bought a few of these as I really like the Hue system and its controllability, scheduling, automation and integration with my existing smart home systems. The app has also improved considerably. Those are the positives. The slight negatives however, are that these GU10s are well overdue an update as they're not able to generate the 'richer colours' spectrum that the current E27, B22 and Light Strip Plus models are capable of... so a distinguishable yellow, green and cyan are off the menu.To be fair, we don't really use any of those colour extremes other than for the kids' parties and maybe to show the system off to friends. Daily use dotted around the house, these mostly spend their time doing 2700k.

I gotta say, I'm putting in this review at least 2 years (probably closer to 3) after having bought the bulbs, and having recently downloaded and installed the Hue screen sync app, I can finally give up some of my time to shamelessly promote them.If you use these in conjunction with a TV that supports syncing what's on screen with the lights, you have one of the most immersive TV viewing experiences that you can get without stepping through your screen. As much as a big screen and great sound can do for you, these lights take it to the next level. They help pull the action out of the screen and surround you with the ambiance as much as 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound can do.

love them. Colours could be stronger, but the affect is amazing. I have 21 in my kitchen/family room. Brilliant bit of smart kit. Connected to the hue hub/bridge, and using the hue app, I can have any colour (pink, purple, green etc) or shade of white, set them to turn on when one of us gets near to home, turn off automatically when the last one of us leaves, even remotely turn on or off when overseas. Using another app, i can also get them to change colour in time with spotify. Only downside is the price. Keep a look out for rare discounts.

Works very well with google assistant, the white colours look fantastic and the colours are quite good,However the green colour is very weak so I wouldn't reccomend if you intend on using green a lot. It comes out as a very light, lime green border line yellow. The photo makes them look greener than they are irl.Something to watch out for, these bulbs are longer than standard bulbs so make sure they will fit your light fitting, I had to do a lot of hunting to find a down light fixture that would fit them perfectly.

Love the hue system but to be honest they are overpriced now for what they are. That's the main point for me I think, the quality is there but the market has and is moving on now and there is no real justification for the price tag in my view. they need to come down by around 30% or so to be acceptable.Verysimple to seetup, and reliable in use. the brightness on some colours can be a little underwhelming but thats down to the overall power output of the LED's used by Philips.

Easy to install. You do need a bit of clearance in the ceiling for them to fit as they are quite a bit bigger than a standard gu10 bulb. The reason for my 4 star is that I also have 3 richer colour mains bulbs. So in my living room I have 4 sport and 3 bulbs. The issue arrives with green colours. The richer colour bulbs are a very cool green. These are more like a yellow than a green. A port from that all other colours seem to mach the richer colour bulbs just norlt green.

I have fit four of these into room now known as the "disco"! They work well especially with the "Hue Disco" app on iOS and children find them very entertaining. The only problem is that they are expensive - although Black Friday offers helped with that a bit. It's a shame that Philips don't have a GU10 White only Hue bulb - they offer this in the other styles of Hue bulb and would add more light automation across in the house in rooms that you don't need colour in.

I love Hue. They're already in most of the rooms in my house so I bought these to add the kitchen to the list. Exactly as expected in terms of features, use, etc however these are much bigger than regular GU10 spot bulbs. They're so tall they protrude outside the light fitting by a good 10-20mm, spoiling the look. One thing to keep in mind before spending a lot of money on a lot of spot lights.

Excellent colour range, but more importantly a really diverse colour temperature for white light. They fit into the short form GU10 downlighting units I have around the house, and as standard produce a bright warm glow, similar to the top rated Osram 5.5w that I've used across the house. Overall a great product, highly recommended.

Great bulbs, really cannot see the 16 million colour options though. If you have gu10 fittings and hue hub and want to add a splash of colour get this. As an FYI I have this in a hall with some gu10 white ambience and on the same white recipe it is brighter so might be a higher wattage

A great product, loads of customisation to create a nice atmosphere and plenty of apps to work with the lights. The lights are larger than normal GU10 bulbs found it difficult to find the right housing unit to fit the bulb. Needs hue bridge to get the full use out of the lights.

A great product that is gradually finding its way into every room of my house. Just be weary of the Amazon Warehouse deal ones as it looks like scammers are buying these, swapping them with a standard Philips bulb, and then returning them as I unfortunately found out.

welcome to the next generation of lighting, simply amazing.Slightly longer than standard GU10 bulbs though, so if you have them in recessed housings you may struggle to get them in.Happy to install full range of HUE lights and switches in the London area

Love these they look great I have 4in one of my rooms and they all work independently which I weren't sure they were going to as they are all on the same power supply but really please hopefully they will ask a long time nice and bright as well

Spot On! Clearly you get what you pay for and these are the best, but a little pricey, so 4 start not 5. As other reviewers say, they are. A little longer that some GU10s so they do protrude from some fixtures , but in my opinion, look great.
