Review: The media could not be loaded. In summary. Great price and value. A few teething problems. Alexa intergration is really good and quick. But LIFX app is a bit of an issue. However for most of my bulbs, I don't need to make use of all LIFX's app controls, So with that, I am pleased I made the purchase and able to pair 2/3 bulbs with Alexa. I will make further purchases for a color wheel bulb and strip lights in the near future from LIFX as I don't have an issue with their products. I have no idea why the reviews are so bad. It's not the product from my experience. Review in detail below: DAY ONE OF USING THE PRODUCT. I bought three bulbs on offer. -First bulb, connected to Alexa straight away. Jobs a goodun. The LIFX app, didn't connect to it. Nevermind as we will control the bulb with Alexa anyway. -Second bulb, connected to Alexa straight away, then I connected it though a second restart to the LIFX app wifi successfully. Alexa app then stated that the second bulb is non responsive. Not sure why or how as the bulb is working. Maybe a trip up? but I cannot seem to regain connection through Alexa. I can control this via the LIFX app still. -Third bulb, connected through to Alexa and the LIFX app successfully. However I cannot seem to link the bulb through the WiFi on LIFX app and im worried that doing this will trip the bulb and become like the second bulb (just my brain thinking this, not an accurate prediction). But again, it's not the end of the world as I have Alexa to control it. The light The box says white. I'd say it's a warm white but there you go. It brightens and it dims.. perfect. Systems and connection. If your not tech savy.. then get someone who is to help. But a beginner tech savvy would figure this out. So I don't know why the reviews are so low for 2020. I personally cannot agree with it. If LIFX or Alexa have made some adjustments, then they have accomplished and moved on from 2020 reviews. So don't let these put you off buying LIFX products I will update this review once 1 month has passed and comment on the durability.
