Very easy to set up and connect with Alexa. It took only 5 minutes maybe. They work great? I love the colors & that you can change how bright the light is. I recommend these.

I finally tried one of these smart bulbs. I have many smart switches and devices in my house but most all of my light switches are dimmer switches (and most are not LED dimmer compatible either) so i haven't tried one of these until now. My hallway/stairway light only has a switch at the top of the steps. It doesn't bother me but my guests are often freaked out. Decided i'd put this bulb in that ceiling fixture and i could set a timer to have it on as soon as it's dark. I love the dimming and color choices and it works flawlessly with the app. Using with voice control on my echo devices is very wonky (but that often does not work even playing music, and i tend to connect my phone to the echo via bluetooth to play music or else Alexa does whatever she pleases when i ask by voice). So far if i ask Alexa to turn this light on, she says she can't connect and then i ask a second time and it comes on. If i use the app, it comes on immediately. However if i ask alexa to turn my lamps on which are controlled by Govee switches, it's immediate with no glitch, so it must be something with the nature of a smart bulb vs a smart switch. Definitely not a deal breaker for me as i generally prefer using the app to speaking.

These lights are really cool. I have two of them in my bedroom. They came automatically set up to my Alexa’s right when I connected them to electricity. It was very interesting so far they are lasting really good and with my Alexa I could dim my lights, make them brighter and change the color, I rarely use the app but all I gotta say is Alexa to turn off the lights in the night and it’s amazing and in the morning to turn it back on highly recommend these!

When the bulb sets up properly, it works well. However, the first set of four bulbs I bought (two years ago) have had sporadic problems retaining their configuration for WiFi, color and brightness after recovery from our (unfortunately) frequent power outages (we experienced >40 outages totaling over 228 hours in 2024 alone!), and one or two of the bulbs needed to be re-added as a new device every few times we had power outages.Eventually, one of the bulbs fully stopped being able to be set up--it would not go into reset mode, despite many attempts at the reset procedure that I am VERY familiar with, having had to execute it maybe a dozen or more times in the two years I had the initial set of bulbs.So I ordered a replacement box of four, figuring I would toss out the defective one and have some spares in case another one was defective. The first new bulb I tried to set up (and I tried 12-15 times total before finally giving up) flat out would not find the 2.4GHz WiFi networks (an eero mesh network with two SSIDs with different passwords) in my home--see the included photo of the WiFi selection screen. Resetting Bluetooth on the phone, resetting WiFi on the phone, resetting the phone, resetting the eero mesh network, resetting the main wired router, and resetting the internet connection ALL failed to alter the behavior. The bulb simply never found ANY WiFi networks. We're physically distant enough from the nearest neighbor that there was no interference from other WiFi networks, and my signal strength within 5 feet of the bulb was full, as is seen in the attached photo. After 12-15 total attempts, I gave up trying to set up the first of four bulbs. The second one I tried set up with no problems, so the issue was clearly a defective bulb, not environmental.Even though I did not plan to put the remaining bulbs into service yet, I tested them out to make sure they were not defective like the first one was, and BOTH of the remaining two exhibited the same defective behavior--would not find/show any WiFi networks to connect to. I'm returning the defective units for a replacement, but I am not hopeful I will have much better luck with the replacements. So to recap, three of four in one box were unable to find any WiFi networks, despite the WiFi signal being strong and having no interference.In short, when they work, they work well and I am mostly happy with them (though I wish there was a custom color wheel like some other bulbs offer, and I wish the preset colors were a closer to what they appear on the Alexa app screen), but the reliability is still not there.Also, I wish there was a way to configure them so that they would *NOT* automatically turn on following a power outage. I realize that when they think they have been reset, they will come on at full brightness in one of the white shades, but if the power fails and comes back, or power browns out in the middle of the night, it takes several minutes before the Internet, main router, WiFi routers and Alexa are back online sufficiently to turn the bulbs off again, which pretty much means that everyone wakes up--we use them in the nightstand lights in our bedrooms.I know these are "Basics" but the reliability needs some work.UPDATE! UPDATE! UPDATE!!!I did some poking around online and discovered that the problem is my too-smart-for-its-own-good Amazon-branded eero WiFi mesh network, which broadcasts a single, unified SSID for the 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz bands, and therefore trips up these not-so-smart Amazon-branded WiFi Smart Bulbs, and simply don't display ANY network selections OR MANUAL NETWORK CONFIGURATION UI IN THE ALEXA APP when they're provisioning using the Alexa app. Way to go, Amazon, making products that don't work together! The solution is to use the eero app's Troubleshooting page (Gear Icon "Settings" in the lower right, then "Troubleshooting" tile), and tap the "My device won't connect" tile. From there, use the "My device is 2.4 GHz only" tile, and finally the "Temporarily pause 5 GHz" button. Work quickly, because even though this pause is allegedly 30 minutes, and provides a comforting countdown timer, I have found that after 4-5 minutes, the eero CLAIMS it is still in the pause mode, but the bulb reverts to responding as though the 5GHz band is active again, and doesn't display any networks to connect to or any way to manually enter a network SSID.A side-effect of that solution is that a LOT of "smart" devices that *ARE* connected using 5 GHz lose their connections, so they have to be power-cycled once the 5 GHz band has been resumed (manually using the "Cancel" button where the "Temporarily pause 5 GHz" button was, or by the expiration of the 30-minute pause timer). I recommend using a Guest network that is restricted to 2.4GHz and connecting your 2.4GHz-only devices, like the current revision of these bulbs, to that guest network.In all...pretty clunky, and not friendly, Amazon, and it cost you two-way shipping to get me a replacement set of four bulbs, because none of the four I ordered initially connected to WiFi, so I figured they were verkakte and exchanged them for a new box of four bulbs.Please try to get your hardware engineers and software engineers in your different product lines to test interoperability of Amazon-branded devices you send to market. There's no good excuse for having the trouble-free configuration steps depend on customers having old technology or disabling features in their new technology.

This smart LED bulb was very easy to set up and works well with Alexa. Once connected, it’s really convenient to control the light with voice commands or through the app.The brightness is good for everyday lighting, and it’s nice being able to turn lights on or off without needing to reach for a switch. It’s especially helpful when you want to set routines or schedules.The bulb also has a clean, simple design and installs just like a regular light bulb. Overall, it’s a solid and affordable smart lighting option that adds a lot of convenience. 💡

Synced these up in my son's room and was able to control them with our Alexa! You can also have her change the color, and he loves to change it to wacky ones. Installation was also a breeze. Great product!

Since Amazon discontinued updates with Sengled in Oct 2025 which became random disconnects and manual resets in different rooms. Asked Alexa about this, who told me what the deal is. So, looked up bulbs. Went with Amazon for more $ than the other two brands Alexa recommended due to they are suppose to come preset up.Mind you, I ordered 12 bulbs. Figured I’d begin with one and see how it goes.Two hours later, trouble shooting every single possible option … no bueno.The bulb would not connect to wifi.I tried a different one, still no bueno. Today, third order of four arrives. Armed with how to run the scenarios grid a bulb, still no bueno. Did not work.The bulb yesterday, with the help of Alexa eventually popped onto the Alexa app screen.But, even with manual attempts, we get to the add WiFi. First, my network at any attempt did not show on screen. So manual add.Here, wtf is “security” asked about. These are different options. This is when internet securities were invented they have different initials like WEP and so on.I tried them all.My firmware is updated by my internet provider. So it wasn’t this.Not once did the Alexa app accept me manually adding my network and password.I tried every possible scenario and Alexa (echo dot) sent back reports to Amazon for them to figure their end out.The only thing I’m guessing may be the issue, bulbs are slow internet 2.4GHz and I’ve got both 2.4 and 5. There’s no way for me to know for sure.To top this off, the Alexa app sticks when the password fails. So I have to power the phone off to reset the app to get back in.So much for spending more to get preset Amazon bulbs, yes I clicked the box for this before purchasing all bulbs.That’s almost three hours of my life including this review I can’t get back.Disappointed in the promise of preset like all my other devices and TV but a little lightbulb causes all this hiccuping.All bulbs going back. Imma stick with Sengled. Reset them if they jump off line. And try the other brand Alexa recommended.I know these bulbs would work great if they’d connect. Since they won’t I’ll try something else. As I need the set up for when I travel and also it helps to have them wifi for when I’m carrying stuff or forget a bulb. It’s like having an extra helper. Which is why in 2020 began using the Amazon products.Can’t review the bulbs because they won’t set up. But wanted to leave my review for anyone who thinks of buying and runs into a wall during set up.Can’t recommend these. If you have Alexa ask for the two bulb company recommends. They’re half as much.My only concern is will they be discontinued like Sengled. Who knows. This is why I went with Amazon and paid more. Not worth the hassle because they will not connect despite every direction followed and the help do the echo dot guiding me with extra optionsBooooo smh

Very happy with my purchase of the Amazon basics LED smart light bulbs. It was very easy to hook them up to my Wi-Fi into my Alexa device. As I am trying to turn my home into a completely voice activated home. One thing I have learned doing this is one it can get very expensive and the price of these are very economical. To and I think this is important but whatever brand you're going to go with I would try and stick to that brand for everything. I have bought an Alexa device well too Alexis devices and anytime I buy anything that is a different brand it seems to be a very very bad headache to get it to connect sometimes. However when you use Amazon products with Alexa they seem to pair up very quickly and easily in the process is simplified significantly!

It has so many color options, which makes it fun to change the mood of the room anytime whether we want something relaxing or bright. My husband especially enjoys using it, and it’s become part of our daily routine.What I really like is that it connects perfectly with our Alexa Echo Dot, so we can control it with just our voice. It’s super convenient and easy to set up!

Excelente, se conectan fácil y rapido con Alexa.

Got 2 packs of these suckers and replaced all my bulbs and added a couple more with plug-in light sockets. It's almost celebrial how cool these lights can make your room look. They can be a little glitchy at times but so can my wifi on my brand new phone.The whites are a lot brighter. Seems to be a separate LED for white with slight addition from red or blue for warm and cool respectively. Excellent for any application, they are dimmable so fully customizable in that respect.

Me gustó los focos, aunque los colores como que no son correctos (no recuerdo que color) Pero solo es un color al decirlo y con la app se cambia bien los colores y el brillo.Se emparejaron bien a la aplicación, al inicio 2 focos tuve que emparejar prendiendo y apagando el Switch 6 veces y el otro foco ya se emparejó automáticamente (estando en la app de Alexa Amazon).La luz está bien al ponerlo al maximo y frío.

Coming from Philips Hue I was definitely struck by how poor the color options were.Yellow and Gold are literally green which was disappointing as I was hoping to use the warmer tones the most.Thankfully the bulb offers "warm white" as part of its (normal/non rgb) options. This is what I use primarily and it works nicely when I need a dim/warm light.In the end if you want a cheap dimmable bulb and want to use "normal" bulb temps, this is your cheapest and best option. I use mine in the kitchen, bathroom, living room.If you want color options, this is very low on my list of options, Philips Hue being at the top.Also worth mentioning, the app control for these bulbs can be tempermental. It works well on average but there are times when I have to power cycle the light to get it to connect. Something I've never done once with any of my Hue lights over the past 5 years.4/5 with a star deducted for the poor color performance and app inconsistency.
