Hard to setup, I never be got the Alexa echo st hi do devicem.

My setup is just 1 lightbulb and a Nest Hub. Previously, I had a Wiz A19 color bulb that had communication problems with my Nest Hub. Like every day. Eventually I decided to try this Sengled which came free with the Nest Hub. It stays connected and the Nest Hub has no problem communicating with it. However, it was an absolute pain to set up. Should’ve been simple, but my first mistake was apparently I needed to set my iPad to my 2.4 wifi network in order to pair to the 2.4 wifi Sengled bulb. And even then it took about 5 tries with the Google Home app before I successfully got the bulb paired. I didn’t do anything different after switching to 2.4 wifi band. Just kept trying until it finally successfully paired. Why not pair the first time? I dunno. [One last note. Don’t know if there is an app for Sengled or not. But if not then this bulb can’t do any of the advanced color modes that the Wiz bulb was able to do, such as “Party Mode”, etc. Not a big deal to me. But maybe it is to some?]

So Sengled has been around for a minute, and new bulbs with Matter are made to support any home automation system(Alexa, Google, Homekit). I use Apple Homekit exclusively for my home and apartment and i have the latest models of Apple TV’s and Homepod minis that act as a bridge for all of my smart accessories. I was hopeful that these Matter bulbs were going to work as effectively as my LIFX bulbs, so i ordered 8, but that was not the case. Turns out you still need a specific bridge made by Sengled to make it homekit compatible(another $25-$40). I dont have an issue with WiFi speeds or capacity but i dont want to HAVE to add another bridge when it should be compatible with existing bridges. When i scanned the QR code for the bulb to add it to homekit, it gets added smoothly but then will register as “No Response”. Definitely a bummer and now a reason why i wont look at Sengled products in the future. As a regular light bulb, it has decent brightness but i cant speak to the multicolor features. The app is also not as user-friendly like the LIFX app. Im sure theyre decent but definitley worth mentioning the connectivity requirements.

They were pretty bright which was nice but difficult to connect. Even after going over the steps it never worked like it should. Maybe have been a combination of user error and device but it wasnt as seemless as I hoped.

They work great when they work. Half the time they drop communication with alexa. Power down then turn back on usually works. Have 6 bulbs, tell them tonturn on, maybe 4 will most of the time. Other than communication,they workngreat.

These require a home connected hub device to work, like amazon alexa or Apple HomePod. Not sure if thats an oversight on my end or if its an unexpected flaw/limitation of the product. I had assumed you would be able to use it via bluetooth connected to your phone.

Bought 2 and they never worked. I read that they were faulty, but it could have just been mine. I give it 3 stars because of the concept.

Nice colors works with Alexa no apps.,,,,,,,,, ,,,

Not bad but have had wifi issues despite it being about 20 feet from the router... nothing but a few walls in between, standard drywall. Overall, it was part of a promotion so i can't complain too much.

Not really impressed with this product it was really hard to hook up and I can’t get it to work from my phone. Still don’t know how to use it.

Works really well and the price can't be beat! A good bulb to get someone started on an automated lighting system.

This light works with your Alexa so when you’re feeling lazy and don’t want to get up and turn your light off Alexa, will do it

WiFi setting doesn’t work and therefore I can’t change the lights.

Need a hub to make it work. No app to install. Just needs alexa or apple hub. I dont have either

Good buy. If you like colored lights this would work for you.

Not easy to set up on app.. WiFi doesnt pop up.. but was able to do it thru google home by scanning barcode

Nice once you get it connected. Took 2 days to get it to connect.

I do like the product however I had some issues setting it up due to two different Wiz apps. I gave it 3 stars as well due to not being compatible with the Apple HomeKit. I did get it with a significant discount.

I can’t wait to get this to work I haven’t been able to program it but definitely looks like it will be so cool when I finally do. I’m having trouble getting it to program as of now thought.

It’s a good light bulb. It’s still working after 2 years
