I know this video is old, but holy crap this is the most helpful/well-made video out of any smart bulb reviews. Thank you!
I've have zero patience and/or attention span but damn I listened/watched the whole damn thang! Thank you!
I'm looking into getting one of these and i swear I watched at least 5 videos of reviews but this is the only one that was detailed and helpful thank you for this hahaha
I’ve had two for years and they still work great
cant believe this video is from 2017. I stumbled across this video in the UK and just ordered two on ebay based on this review.
I've just ordered one after watching ur review, can't wait to try it on with Alexa
I just got the LIFX Color WiFi Smart Bulb 4pack from Australia.
Gota say it's awesome.... extremely way beter than the Philips hue smart bulb.
Hello friend. Great videos! I have not had a single good experience with LIFX and I really wanted to love them. They will not stay connected.. they disconnect daily…. Even after channel one assignmnt on my wifi etc..
Your intro is sending my alexa device nuts! lol
This is completely off topic but your beard ponytail is cool and adorable Simultaneously
You made my Alexa turn off the lights while my family was doing crafts.
Wow that’s so sad where can I donate money
@@lemarz8006 I forgot about this comment lol
That’s like the time I had the regular radio on and there was an ad for Alexa and it made my echo play music.
This is the most informative review I've seen. Definitely liked and subscribed. This video sold me to buy these bulbs
I learned so much more from you in minutes verse the other videos. Thanks Jeremy!
Awesome. Glad it was helpful.
Great stuff man. Really enjoy the videos. Your content seems like it geared specifically to my tastes. Love it!
+Arthur Schroeder Sweet! Glad you’re digging the content! I guess great minds think alike. 😂
I honestly love your videos so much!! Have only seen few but am definitely excited about more content 😁 I am so surprised you only have 3k subscribers! Keep up your work
+Alosina Lealaitafea Thanks!!! Appreciate that! 👍🏻. Glad you are liking the channel! I’ll keep making them as long as y’all keep watching them. 😉
I got lifx bulbs all over the house. and I have removed the wall switches in the house and replaced them with smart Wifi Switches that will and switch the bulb no/off brighten and dim the light. the reason behind this is that if you use a standard switch you will cut the power to the bulb and you have to go and push the switch again for it to function
real quick, I started out with the Hue setup and couldn't make the Bridge work, as it needs to supplant my Ethernet Switch to be first onto my gateway. Since I needed my ethernet, i went with Lifx. Much better.
Just found your channel, great channel, love the aesthetic you have and your content is brillant! Just my speed! Keep it up man!
Also you triggered my lighting throughout this video haha!
Your setup is GODLIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩✊🏿👏🏾
Jeremy! Thanks alot for this video brother! I was recently looking at purchasing the Phillips color lights but now that I see these LIFX don't require a hub I think I'll be getting these now!
Yeah, they are both great bulbs. The no hub required sold me on the LIFX over the Hue though. Also the LIFX seem a little brighter from tests Ive seen.
I can’t bring myself to pay that much for a light bulb. I’d get it if it was more reasonably priced though. Neat!
Awesome review... there are a lot of features and settings that would be super cool....once I get my new ECHO!
+Elaine O'Dell oh yeah baby!! The 31st!! I am strangely excited about it. 🤣
I liked the light and all the color options.....but I had to return it because it would always lose connection and never stay connected. I bought tp link bulb and never a problem. The color options aren't as good but at least it stays connected.
Super concise and comprehensive, well done and thank you.
I know I’m a bit late but I love the video
You have more than 1k views with 0 dislikes, thats amazing
How much are these bulbs?
+Cameron Meetze thanks Cameron! Glad your liking the vids! These run about $50 bucks normally. Some times a little cheaper depending on if you catch them on sale.
In AUS, they are 80-90 dollars depending on the retailer.
I am feeling more energetic already 😂😍👍
Love the video Jeremy. I have been thinking about getting smart lights for awhile now that I have Alexa. I cannot decide whether to go with Hue or with LIFX.
Thanks Willie! As for smart light choice I went wit the LIFX obviously lol. Both are good bulbs. I just went with lifx over hue because one, I liked that they didn’t need a hub. Two, from what I’ve seen they are a little brighter and the colors are more accurate and saturated. Don’t think you would be unhappy with either though.
Really thorough and helpful review. You managed to answer every single question I've had regarding these bulbs.
Thanks for the vid, this is super helpful! Do you know if they’ll work with a 3-way lamp?
This video is amazing and very descriptive! I subscribed
Great review dude! Interesting and entertaining. Thanks 🤓👏🏼
Nice and helpful review 👍. Mine is coming up tomorrow 😁
Looking to put these bulbs in light fixtures in the ceiling that do not have a dedicated switches. Do they require switches?
Love the video. Question I have ceiling fans that I always leave on. Would these work with the ceiling fan with out shutting the fan off?
Very thorough review. Thank you!
You have a new subscriber, Man!
I really enjoy your videos...especially your reviews
+MadMax Thanks brother!! Glad you like them. 👍🏻
Will it work with the Philips Hue bridge? ( part of me regrets getting Philips Hue Play Bars ) 😭 !!!
Awesome video !! Hooking up my whole room with these
Will keep info in mind. As soon as it gets rolling (java, man). JS, will keep links on tap. Try to snag a Newegg link also. Stay dry,warm and strive for great day! AJ
+Aj Thanks AJ 😄👍🏻
hi man, nice review. tks. Do you recall what fps did you put on the cameras to shoot this? do this bulbs flick for video ? cheers!
Hey am looking to buy the lifx one with a bayonet cap instead of the screw one what number is it please
Dude, I’ve been wanting to get one of these type of bulbs for a while now and I think you’ve just convinced me. 😂 That is really F-ing cool. Great review. Btw. Is this compatible with Control4.
Awesome! Gals you liked the vid! I'm sure you will like them, I love mine! As for the Control4, not sure. I am unfortunately not familiar with that device, sorry.
Very nice work thanks
OMG what is that storm trooper wall paper! I want it!
Anyone know where to find it?
sure do! www.justinmaller.com/wallpaper/269/
Could these light up a room by them selves
Definitely
I have a question, I have laying hens in my chicken coop where I want to use these bulbs. They need to come on in the early morning, preferably go from dim to brighter, turn off during the day and come on again in late afternoon and turn off again 2 or 3 hours after dark by dimming down. It's important that the light doesn't just go out in the evening, because the need time to settle in to roost. Will this app from Lifx do this???
Where can I get a lamp like the circular one please?
Does it use a lot of electric is the switch is ON but I tell Siri to turn the bulb off?
Do you think they're still worth buying? I ordered one for the luls for my bedroom off of amazon for just over 21$ but i wasn't sure if you thought they were still worth it. it's been just about a year since you did this review and was wondering your take on it now.
I'm trying to find effects option and I don't see it :(
can you give me a link on where the buy the flower lamp on the little nightstand
Thanks Jeremy. Great channel.
+John Vitale Thanks John!! 👍🏻
Great review
is there anyway to change the color without a smartphone?
Do you guys know if this would b ok to use as a main light for my room?
What camera were you using to film in this video?
Is the HomeKit working? Thanks for your reply!
Can you use IFTTT with these bulbs?
good to see & listen well explained & office is cool.
+Bob T thanks again! Lol 😉. Glad you liked the vid. 👍🏻
Love the channel, new sub , what is the make of your white chair please ? Many thanks
+Brian Wilkes Hey Brian, Thanks! It is made by a company called Flash furniture. Here is a link to the chair on Amazon.

Is this bulb enough to light up a 4x4 meter bed room?
You mentioned in the video if the wifi goes out you may have to reboot it to make the bulbs work again. Can you still operate the light while wifi is off line by simply using the normal wall switch?
+philip baldwin yep, you can still turn them on and off via the wall switch they are on or the on/off switch to the lamp/fixture they are in. You just lose the ability to change color, dim, use the app to control them, use Alexa to control them. They still work like a normal light though. 👍🏻
question what is the brightest smart light bulb
I know this is a old video but what light did you use for this video?
Is it possible to install one lamp at my fitness studio. And then a few others at a different location like my home. And then still be able to assign the relevant scenes at each location?
I don't see why not. As long as the lights have access to a good 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection.
I'm assuming this works with google home?
That intro ! Lol 👌
Lol, glad you liked it! Thanks. 👍🏻
Thanks for this!
Sure thing! Glad you liked it! 👍🏻
I just bought one on Amazon!
I was enjoying your vid until my Alexa started going ape shit every time you said Alexa
Really cool for maybe a week. Novalty wears off quick. Having to remove the bulb to do a reset would be a total bitch if you have a few of them and hopefully not a house full of them.
+PipenFalzy yeah, I can see that for sure. I actually use mine all the time though. I love being able to just say “ lights on” or “lights off” and all the lights in that room come on instead of having to walk around and turn on multiple lamps. The rebooting can be annoying but luckily it is fairly rare. Most of the time they are pretty flawless. Definitely not an item for everyone, but I dig them. Wanna outfit more of the house with them, but them babies ain’t cheap! So it’s a slow process, lol.
How about 800 lumens, is it worth it ?
I have a question. Do you know if they can be used in a 3-way table lamp? If so, how? Thank you in advance..
I havent used one with a three way lamp myself, but I would think it would be fine. The three way function may not work but the bulb should still function as it is suppose to as long as it is getting juice. You would just turn the lamp to the on position and then use the bulb as you normally would with he app and/or Alexa. Like I said, I have not tested this myself.......but seems like it should be ok. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
JeremySiers thank you for your response! I really appreciate it. Have a great day!
I'm 11 months late, but yes. These work in both the 2nd and 3rd On positions on my 3-way floor lamps. These only need 11W. Once they have enough power, they operate just as expected.
So do I leave the light switch on now forever or turn it off when I turn off my bulb through my phone??
Yep, just leave the switch on.
Hi, can this light be remotely controlled while you are away from home?
Mohammed Nawaz no WiFi controlled
Will the lightbulb remember the schedule if my phone is turned off?
Stanimir Nikolov yes
Nice intro, man!
Soo I was wondering if I should just buy one of these for my bedroom. They don't have the correct fitting for my actual light, but for my desk light (it can light up the whole room with the current bulb) it should work. I just want one so I can say 'Hey Google, turn off my light' at night time (and I want to party on my own :P).
One more thing, I have noticed my current bulb get quite hot when it stays on for about 5 mins. Would this one get very hot?
Thanks.
They are pretty bright so one might do the trick. As for them getting hot they are LED so they dont heat up too much. Not as hot as a normal incandescent bulb. Hope this helps!
Okay, thanks!
are they working with bluetooth?
They connect via WIFI.
I hope they gave you a bump for this add.
+waveoflight lol, I wish. No affiliation with the company. Just dig the lights. 😉
Too bad about that price point though
dude stop saying Alex and then telling her to do stuff... my house is freaking out -_-
Disliked just because of the nonstop use of “alexa” made my stuff go crazy. Please make note of hot words when making videos
This is completely off topic but your beard ponytail is cool and adorable Simultaneously
Great review
+Calvin Campbell Thanks Calvin! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
