Review on 🔌 Assistant-Compatible Philips Hue Equivalent by Derick Johns

Good. The truth is I love these lightbulbs. The quality is excellent. There are also many applications to work with them. And I bought them, and I bought Phillips shade shade bulbs. So I have quite a few. everyone really. Pros: The quality is obvious when you pick one up and they work well. The light is good, the color is pleasant in both colored and white bulbs. The lamps use a hub. A hub is actually a good thing as it reduces Wi-Fi traffic and increases your network speeds without overloading it with lightbulbs and outlets. But that's where the pluses end. Disadvantages: 1. They are larger than giraffe teeth. Philips apparently thinks their shit doesn't stink when it comes to those lightbulbs. But what worries me the most is that if I buy a set of four to get a discount, Philips will force me to buy another socket. A hub supports up to FIFTY devices. fifty! Why do I need a dozen hubs to buy fifty lightbulbs? NOT ME. And that's what sucks about these lightbulbs to infinity. You can't get ahead by buying them in bulk and that's going to cause Phillips to drop this product due to the insanely high initial cost. There are MUCH cheaper lamps now that will do exactly what these will do. However, almost all are Wi-Fi bulbs that don't use a hub, and that's not a good thing either. Alexa supports them. Oh joy! (NOT) Like I said, Phillips puts bushings down your throat. So if you have a hub and buy an Alexa device that supports them, the Alexa app will now show multiple devices for each bulb. It shows the one on the hub and the one the Alex device picked up and you can't remove them.3. Any Alexa devices that support these lights are using a broken hub. So many apps you want to use with bulbs won't work as all apps use the Hue hub and can't connect to Alexa to work. This is a problem for which there is no other solution than not using Alexa. >:( Revane, Phillips, are you listening?
