Review after 8 months of daily use.

They tend to flicker a little bit when using the dimmer. Once you notice, it WILL bother you.Android app constantly logs you out, so you must be logging in at least once a week.If power goes out you must configure EVERYTHING again, schedules, scenes, etc.Bought 2, and one of them failed after 8 months of use.Would not recommend for daily use or if planning to use them in complex automation.The good thing is that they look really nice.

Pros
  • WIFI COMPATIBLE: These bulbs can be controlled using the free Bulbrite Solana app or with a compatible voice assistant hub. Fully dimmable via the free Bulbrite Solana app or with a compatible voice assistant. Control the lighting in your home with the click of a button.
Cons
  • May take some time to connect with Alexa

Not intuitive or user friendly

I bought 4 of these bulbs. I’ll start by saying that these are incredibly unintuitive and not user friendly at all. I have 3 Philips Hue and set up was so simple and they work perfectly with my Alexa devices, probably didn’t take more more than 5 minutes each. I wanted to add some more smart and color changing bulbs to my apartment and was hoping that these would do the trick because of the lower price point compared to the HUE bulbs. I was totally wrong. It took me over 20 minutes to set just…

Pros
  • ‎6.3 x 4.3 x 3.2 inches
Cons
  • May not work with all virtual assistants

Novelty Item - Would not recommend

I like the ability to adjust the brightness and warmth of the light as well as the concept of schedules and creating scenes. There were 2 key things that didn’t work as I had expected: schedules/scenes and user access. First, I am disappointed that, in order for the schedules and scenes to be harmonized, the light would have to be on 24/7. For example, I had hoped to use these in my bathroom with a schedule that would enable the light to have a nightlight effect when turned on within a certain…

adhesive that gripped bulb separated

I liked the ability to change temperature and brightness, but the app pairing was far less than optimal. In the last 2 years had to reprogram them multiple times assuming when the app was updated. It once took me over an hour to re pair with the app and sometimes it was not recognized even after being paired. Recently one of the bulbs started flickering so I went another direction in getting a smart dimmable lightswitch with separate dimmable bulbs. When I removed these previous bulbs, I…

Pros
  • Gets hot quick and puts off heat within seconds of turning on.
Cons
  • will not connect to network

Look, I’ve got to say that when a bulb was flashing like a strobe light and you can’t get it to connect to your Wi-Fi network because it’s a 2.4 GHz signal only, it gets a little frustrating. I had a lot of issues getting this to connect to my Google Wifi. Even though Google Wifi says it transmits by 5 and 2.4 GHz networks, you can’t force devices such as this to connect to 2.4. After experiencing the same issue with another set of smart bulbs that I have used previously, I realized that google

Don't Buy in my review

It's a light bulb that needs to be on a slow network. It won't work on 5G. I wish I would of noticed this. Now I have a lightbulb that is just regular. Don't Buy!

Pros
  • The product is built with high-quality LED, ensuring that it will last longer than other traditional light bulbs
Cons
  • Requires constant access to a reliable Wi-Fi connection

Constantly goes offline

Disconnects constantly. There is no issue with the WiFi. The lamp is powered on constantly. But when the bulbs are turned off with the app, a couple hours later the app cannot find the bulbs. I have to manually power of and on, then wait, then it reconnects. This is constant, and they're completely unreliable.

Pros
  • The tunable 2200K-6500K color temperature feature allows users to adjust the color temperature of their light bulb to suit their needs, whether it is for reading or relaxing
Cons
  • May not work well with older smartphones and devices

fails to turn on every other day

this bulb fails to turn on after you set up every other day or so. u have to unscrew and screw it back in and then it turns on. Thanks for attention!

Pros
  • ‎1 Smart Light Bulb
Cons
  • Requires an indoor use only

Found these lights for a high ceiling, loved the fact that they could dial to a low intensity very yellow color. Tested a couple, they worked great with Google Home. While away at Christmas, the lights "disconnected" from the Google Home app and now after several hours of trying, can no longer connect them. Don't buy these. While the bulbs worked great, the apps are clearly not supported and not ready for prime time. Will box these up and return them.Update: Several days after the lights…

Pros
  • The Bulbrite A19 Solana WiFi Connected LED smart light bulb can be controlled remotely through a dedicated smartphone app, ensuring that you can turn off the lights even when you're not at home
Cons
  • May not work well with all types of electrical systems

Stylish and easy to setup

Used these in my kitchen with two black lantern pendent lights and they look great. The ONLY smart Edison style bulb I’ve been able to find where you can adjust the temperature of the light. Most Edison bulbs, even the smart ones, are just one color temperature- that orangey color. Love that we can not only dim but change the color to fit the time of day or mood. Very easy to setup in the App.

Pros
  • The Bulbrite A19 Solana WiFi Connected LED smart light bulb has a wide range of uses and can be used for everything from ambient lighting to task lighting
Cons
  • Limited control options for individual bulbs

Great Smart Bulb!: my feedback

This bulb was really easy to set up. Lots of colors to choose from, so the possibilities are endless. I like how you can easily switch between colors in the Solana app, or I can tell Alexa what color to switch to. Bonus, I can use it on my front porch and light up the front of my home in fun seasonal colors all year long.

Pros
  • Love it
Cons
  • Not suitable for outdoor use

Good and bad. Depends on the setup

These light bulb did get the job done. I was satisfied with the different options from yellow to white light. The only thing I had issues was living in the country my power goes out and if it's off for a long time you'll have to repair them to the app again and the app was not as easy to work with. I did end up returning them and had to go a different route with my set up.

Pros
  • ‎No Hub Required, Damp Rated, Dimmable, Works with Alexa and Google Assistant, Not Enclosed Rated
Cons
  • Requires additional products for full functionality

Can control everything from my phone!

I downloaded the free app and familiarized myself with all the features. I love that I can do it all from my phone. turn on and off whether I'm home or out, use the dimmer feature. Also lets me choose cool light or warm. I typically shy away from LED bulbs because I can't get the warm glow of an incandescent bulb. But at the warmest setting (what I use), it's like incandescent. Also, the bulb is very attractive, which makes a difference to me. Very happy with the product and would definitely…

Easy and great best in my review

Easy install and set up. Best part is that I can control and change this into different shades of white with a single bulb!

Pros
  • The Bulbrite A19 Solana WiFi Connected LED smart light bulb is an affordable option for individuals who want to upgrade their home lighting system without breaking the bank
Cons
  • Limited to one device control at a time

Not bright - my new review

The bulb is not the Lumens as advdertised. It might be at 1" away! I removed a dead 1100 Lumens bulb that was probably twice as bright as this one. The setup was easy, and everything worked fine if you don't need a bright ceiling bulb.

Pros
  • ‎E26
Cons
  • May affect Wi-Fi connectivity in some cases

Good product, came damaged

The bulb was easy to set up and looks great. However, mine came with lots of minor chips. There was no visible damage to the packaging so it seems like poorly quality control. It does not impact the function but is disappointing for a product that was bought new.

Pros
  • ‎A19
Cons
  • Limited customer support options

I love this bulb - my new review

It looks great and it works great. I didn't know that you could make a smart bulb that looks and functions like an Edison bulb, but this one does, and it looks great on my front porch. I programmed it to go on at sunset and go off at sunrise. Perfect!

Pros
  • Not Enclosed Rated
Cons
  • May not work well with all types of light fixtures

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works fine, requires a bit time for setup

Not a plug and play bulb, requires you to have some knowledge / experience with setting up smart devices. Once setup though works like a charm.

Pros
  • The Bulbrite A19 Solana WiFi Connected LED smart light bulb can be dimmed using your smartphone or voice command, allowing you to set the mood and create ambiance in your home
Cons
  • Limited brightness range compared to traditional bulbs

Love the colors! on my review.

What a fun lightbulb! A must have if you love colors and control! Through the app you can control everything from colors to brightness to the type of light (I prefer bright day light and my husband prefers warm lighting). I can even turn on the light to my bedroom before I head upstairs at night so I don't have to walk into a dark room. I can't wait to try it with my Alexa! I'm going to definitely have to buy more for the rest of the house!

Pros
  • MULTIPLE USES: The new Bulbrite Solana smart WIFI Connected LED A19 light bulb is versatile enough to work with a wide variety of lamps and fixtures. Our recommendation is to use it in a standard table or floor lamp with a shade. Compatible with any E26 screw base fixture.
Cons
  • May not be compatible with all lamps

Didn’t work for me on my review.

The product refused to ever get out of pairing mode. I was able to sync it up with Alexa but it continually blinks. And it was obvious that the package I got was already used by somebody else because it was a little ripped.

Pros
  • Works with Alexa and Google Assistant
Cons
  • May not work with all Alexa-enabled devices
