Review on Philips Ambiance Equivalent Compatible Assistant by Seth Singh

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Early stage technology. wait for something better

I would definitely recommend this to an enemy. integration is difficult. Applications don't work. The recommended PC app doesn't even see the bridge. The Hue app is very basic and easily loses touch with lightbulbs. If you turn the light switch off and on again, the bulbs will not return to the "scene" you set them to and they will glow like regular white bulbs. The Hue Entertainment app is not working. Third party apps are full of bugs. Besides, why should I pay for apps when I only paid $50 for a lightbulb? This must be reported to Philips. If you need it to work with an entertainment app, spend an hour updating the software and they still don't work. Came back after 12 hours of intensive use. Incidentally, the hub must be connected to the router and the transformer by cable. 1998 called and they want their technology back.

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
