Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great lamp with two flaws:

UPDATED 9/9/2020: UPDATE: Until now I had no experience with smart lights (various brands) and related applications and the ability to create scenes which can then be activated by Alexa . Now that I know this functionality, "Problem 1" is no longer a problem for me: I can create a scene with any white color I want. Accordingly, I added a star. Problems 2 and 3 still exist with this lamp. I really like this lamp. I already have 2 and another on the way at the time of this writing. However, I have a few issues currently giving this lamp 3 stars. Issue 1: Customizable whites via Alexa. With the LE Lampux app, white can be adjusted from really warm white (2000k) to very cool white (5700k). This is an excellent choice. However, when switching between different shades of white with Alexa, the range is limited. When asked by Alexa to switch the lamp to "warm white" or "cool white", checking the LE Lampux app shows that asking Alexa to switch the lamp to "warm white" is not white generated, full 2000k (probably closer to 3000k) ; The same goes for the "cold white" voice command - it doesn't reach 5700k (maybe 4500k). So, I really like the white range (2000k at night is so nice), but if I can only get it with the LE Lampux app (or the buttons on the lamp itself), there's no point in buying Smart. Light for use with voice control. If there is a way to get the LE Lampux+Alexa skill to use voice control to adjust the white across the lamp's full wattage range (2000-5700K), I would happily increase the rating by 1 star. Problem 2: Color saturation decreased when Color Lightness was reduced. When the lamp is set to 100% RGB colors, the colors are very pleasingly saturated. However, if the brightness is reduced, the color saturation also decreases (this happens via Alexa or the LE Lampux app). This shouldn't be a hardware issue - I have Kasa smart LED bulbs that still show full color saturation even at 1% brightness. So I would guess it's a firmware issue with the lamp. If the color saturation issue were fixed I would happily increase my rating by 1 star. Problem 3: Color problems. My latest issue with this lamp (although it could be an Alexa issue as I'm having the same issue with my Echo Flex USB night light). ) is that using voice control to change certain colors, particularly in the green/yellow/orange part of the spectrum, results in incorrect colors. This is especially noticeable with the color orange: if you ask Alexa to turn on the lamp in orange, it turns yellow. Using the LE Lampux app to select orange from the turntable will *really* produce an orange color. It could be an Alexa issue, or an issue with the LE Lampux skill (especially since Alexa's color picker and white picker seem to have been fixed, regardless of the type or brand of smart bulb or smart bulb). Second hand). Due to the fact that this could be an issue with Alexa and not the lamp, I'm not deducting a star for this issue. However, I would be happier with some software/compatibility improvements resulting in more accurate color reproduction.
