Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you know what a Tread/Matter color-changing light bulb is and you have a matter controller and thread border router(s) then these work really well. If you don't know what all of this means and are not wanting to learn then these are not for you. The color saturation and brightness are very good, as good as Philips Hue but at 1/3rd the price, and of course, they use the new home automation standards.

Meh! Took a while for HomeKit to work with this light. I think the issue it has is with the app for the Nanoleaf and HomeKit working together. That is what sucks! Nanoleaf app has some really great scene option which allows the light to change every few seconds. Really cool! Since HomeKit is not working right only option is to use color which is still cool. Since disconnecting the app no issues what so ever with connection. Just fyi!

As an overall rule they work very well, even better when you consider their cost. The color accuracy is simply not going to be as good as something like Phillips Hue. But this costs three times as much and requires a hub (which also costs money as it turns out). Having her companion app helps to dial in more exact colors. It is important to know that the brightness is substantially lower outside a specific spectrum of "white light." Do not expect to have a bright orange sunset/sunrise in your room. But once you enter a certain temperature range of white they can be quite bright. As a side note, a very nice feature is using them in a porch light to mark your house for DoorDash deliveries when your front door is hard to find in an apartment complex. Just put a specific light color in delivery comments and switch the light to that color.

I recently bought this to pair with my Apple TV 4K that I have and it has made getting home even more enjoyable than it already was. Set up process was a little tedious and sometimes shows a “no response” but when they work THEY WORK. Coming home and having them automatically turn on when my Apple TV starts playing music always sets a calm and relaxing vibe after work.

I own a few smart plugs to control lights and decided to try smart bulbs. I liked the idea of controlling the color and dimming. These bulbs are Matter-based and also work with HomeKit. I ran into two main issues. 1) When you link the Nanoleaf App to Apple's Home app, the Nanoleaf app seems to override any future changes you make in Home. For example, if you rename a bulb in Home and then open Nanoleaf, it changes it back. But you need the Nanoleaf app for firmware updates. Frustrating. 2) The bigger issue is that sometimes the bulbs fail to work with any HomeKit automation. I will ask Siri to run a Scene that should turn all three lights on, and one won't come on. I can ask Siri to change the brightness on that bulb that didn't turn on, and it will work. Or I can go into the Home app and adjust the light. The bulbs work about 80% of the time. But nothing is more frustrating than coming home at night to find a dark room because the bulb didn't respond to the automation. And it's not limited to just one bulb. All three end up failing to respond at some point during the week. I recommend using regular bulbs and a Matter-enabled smart plug, such as Eve Home. You won't have the dimming or colors, but you will have a solid on/off function.

Really easy to set up and pretty bright, but they don’t sync up most times. I have four of them linked together, but whenever o change the color, one or two of them almost always don’t change to the right color. I’ll have three go to orange and one either go to a shade different or a completely different color. This almost always happens and I have to play around to get all of them the same color.

Brightness, color and Bluetooth control are good. As others have said, these bulbs will not stay connected to a thread network. I have thread devices from other manufacturers and they star connected. Returning for a refund.

Work great with my HomeKit! Love the way they look in above head lamps. Easy to control using Home app, Nanoleaf app, and Siri. Extremely responsive. Definitely will be buying more from Nanoleaf in the near future.

Even after reading the reviews and seeing the star rating I decided I’d take the chance and give it a shot. It’s a good bulb, however the biggest problem is it’s constantly non responsive. But if you have patience then I’d say give it a try.

These bulbs are great! And they work well with HomeKit, sometimes they don’t always respond, but that can be fixed with an update, over all great bulbs and a grest product!

Nano bulbs are consistently better in quality, reliability, and color than Hue. I used Hue for about 7-8 years and had consistent issues with connectivity. I noticed somw reviews about the connectivity with Nanoleaf. You have to ensure you have two separate bands for your internet. A 2.5 gHz and 5.0 gHz. When they are split they will teather to the correct band and maintain reliability. I have them on the front and back yard with daily automations that never fail. I recommend this company and product!

I liked the idea of being able to control the light color, hue, and intensity, from my phone. The issue I seem to have with it is that it will only stay connected to my phone for a couple days and then a disconnect and goes back to a default warm white, whereas the rest of my lights are daylight.

Love these lights. Easy to set up and use. I have them throughout my house and have converted my family to using them as well. I love the lights automatically coming on when I arrive home especially at night.

I don’t recommend these lights. They are unreliable and difficult to set up. My household has Alexa, Google Home, and HomeKit. I did get these bulbs to connect in all three platforms, but not easily. Alexa failed to connect twice, Google once and HomeKit connected without issue. These bulbs ran great on HomeKit. But as soon as they are connected to more than one platform at a time they struggle. I bought them to specifically connect to all three of my household assistants. HomeKit for phone and Apple Watch controls, Google for voice controls, and Alexa to accommodate my wife’s preferences I am not impressed. The reliability is not there. They would say “unable to connect” every few times a command was given or in app control was attempted.

Works great. I only had one issue after a power outage but was easy to repair.

Very easy to set up and use with HomeKit. Different colors is fun. Would buy again!

These were very buggy compared to my rock solid Philips Hue lights when I purchased them May 2023. However over time (updates to Matter/Thread + firmware) they have become extremely stable. They are just as reliable if not better than my ZigBee Philips Hue bulbs. I bought these as a tech enthusiast wanting to try out thread radio and they are now ready for the masses. Especially with new iPhones coming with thread radios these should be easy to control for everyone in the future. These are now my preferred bulbs especially for the value.

These work amazing with my homepods and are very nice to be able to change brightness and color for various moods and settings. Wish there were more color options

The Nanoleaf bulb impresses with its vibrant and customizable lighting options, allowing users to personalize their space effortlessly. Its energy-efficient LED technology not only provides bright illumination but also contributes to energy savings. The seamless integration with smart home ecosystems adds an extra layer of convenience, making the Nanoleaf bulb a stylish and practical choice for modern lighting solutions.

Great matter enabled multicolor bulbs. The bulbs have been solid, since I corrected the issues with my wireless network. I've only had them a few weeks, but so far they just work. I have them installed outside lighting my the entry ways to my garage area and although it's not been extreme temp changes lately, they have seen some cold nights and haven't missed a beat.
