Review on LIFX Candle White Warm Wi-Fi πŸ•―οΈ - Embracing Cozy Ambiance with Smart Connectivity by Brian Crockett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent lamp, except for a few points.

I bought three of these bulbs for lamps above my media center and while they look great there are a few issues. Responsiveness is an almost constant problem. Most of the time when a Homekit scene starts up, one of the lights doesn't respond until I set up the scene again. It's a bit frustrating and makes the system buggy, but it doesn't bother. I would say it's due to connection issues that others have had. Another problem is that changing the color temperature of the bulb can give it a slight pink tinge at certain settings. What really attracts me to this lightbulb is the nice flickering effect of the candle and the LIFX app which is good software. If you're using a homekit, the options for E12 lightbulbs are very limited. Until someone comes out with another candelabra bulb but with adaptive lighting and threads (they don't support that) I've got it working as is.
