Pros
- The two bulbs offer both multicolour lighting and adjustable white colour temperature, rather than fixed-colour illumination.
- Schedules, timers and away mode provide several ways to automate lighting without manually switching it each time.
Cons
- Some customers report lost Wi-Fi connections, while others find the bulbs dimmer than expected.
- Customer feedback includes reports of bulbs failing after around 20 months, so reported lifespan is a consideration.
