Enshine Bayonet Smart Bulb, 15W(100W) WiFi Light Bulbs B22, Colour Changing and Tunable White, Compatible with Alexa and Google Home, 1500 Lumens, Remote Control by APP, No Hub Required (Pack of 1)

Having experienced some disappointment using the Philips Hue bulbs and finding the constraints of not using a hub, I went back to Enshine. The setup is very straightforward and the Smart Life app is very pleasant to use with dimming the bulb or with automating it to turn on with or at a set interval around sunset along with setting it to turn off automatically at a certain time at night in case you forget to turn it off. Integrating the bulb with Google Home works almost seamlessly. When naming my bulbs in the Smart Life app, Home recognises each bulb and turns them all off or on or does so individually based on voice commands. Additionally, if you use Samsung's SmartThings, you can connect Smart Life so you can then control the bulb through that platform too. In a noisy room where Google Home's voice recognition can be impeded, you can configure a Smart Tag to turn on and off the bulb or brighten/dim it gradually. You can use warm and cool white outputs and choose a big range in between. If I had to name a specific disadvantage against Philips Hue, it's Enshine's colour brightness. Hue's colour brightness is practical for use for the whole room while Enshine's RGB brightness is so dim that it is just a cute novelty. I'm very happy with a much lower cost alternative to Hue, especially with the strong white light output, the ease of set up and the brilliant integration with Google Home. If you have a specific requirement to use the bulbs in RGB colours, these might not be the best option because of the low colour brightness not offering much flexibility. UPDATE: About 11 months after purchase, this bulb has become faulty. Within 5-20 minutes of powering it on, it the bulb loses connectivity and shows as offline in the Smart Life app and it can't be accessed through SmartThings or Google Home. Since it is offline, the schedule to turn the bulb on or off at a given time no longer functions either so it becomes little more than an expensive LED bulb until you turn the light switch off and back on the old-fashioned way, after which it will become online and rejoin your network before repeating the process after 5-20 minutes. I got in touch with the support team and their response was excellent. I followed the troubleshooting tips they gave and when it was confirmed that resetting the bulb didn't resolve the problem, they sent a replacement quickly.

Slightly larger than a normal bulb but also does a lot more and is a lot brighter. Cool and Warm and definitely around 100w equivalent, while colours are around 60w. Connects perfectly with Smart Life and then works with Home Assistant and Alexa in tandem.

I liked a lot this bulb. Im the type of person that cant awake without the sunrise so this bulb fixed the problem. The app is handy, quite good ui. The bulb it self is really bright which is really good for a single room as a main light. The best functions are routines, changing brightness, changing yellow/white colors and alexa connection. The problem is the color spectrum. Its just useless because they are not bright, the music changing color is also useless. But its a good product for value. Didn't see any problems yet with the bulb as im using it for a couple of weeks but i think it will be durable for a long time.

Lovely and bright. So Much brighter than an 8w like our last ones. Slightly darker when coloured but still good. Easy to connect, I used the smart life app. Alexa controllable.

Very pleased with it. Getting set up was at first a bit confusing because I'd never used one of these before. However, the app worked well and I would soon enjoying the ability to fade the bulb and to appreciate different colours. I've bought two more of these bulbs now and I'm happy to recommend them.

Got the bulb and had it setup within a few minutes ( I saw a few reviews say it was difficult, I found it a relatively painless process) The bulb was nice and bright, the colours were dim, but they seem to be on all smart bulbs. I went to turn it on using my Alexa on the second day and noticed that it wasn't connected anymore, I turned it off and on at the light switch to see if that would reconnect it, and when I turned it on, the bulb was dead, it wont turn on at all, but other bulbs I've tested do still work in the socket. I did also notice it weighs less than a regular 11w LED bulb, and 9w smart bulb that I have. So that lack of quality probably explains it lasting only a single full day. I would definitely avoid buying it.

I really liked this smart bulb when I first bought it. It was easy to set up, worked with Alexa, and gave good light quality. At first, it had the occasional disconnection, which I figured was normal for smart bulbs. But after about a year and a half, the dropouts became more frequent until it eventually stopped connecting altogether. It just shows as “not connected” and won’t respond to commands despite resetting. Now it just won’t work at all. It fell short in longevity. If it had continued working flawlessly for, say, 4–5 years, as per the listed ave lifespan, I’d feel much better about the purchase. But failing around 2 years makes me question the value.

This bulb was easy to set up and connect to the app. It is really quite bright. However in the app you can alter the temperature of the light to make it easier on the eye. With the app you can switch the bulb on and off remotely - you can also set it to come on and switch off at specified times, very handy if you are away from home. You can also change the colour of the light on the app. Nice. Recomended.

Nice. Music sync is not proper. Other functions are nice.

The smart bulb is not as bright as I'd hoped and the non-white colours are especially dim. If you treat it as a smart bulb without colour changing capabilities, it will do an excellent job.

Ne marche plus au bout de 10 min

Installation facile, l'ampoule paraissait bien, belle luminosité et puis apres 35 minutes seulement d'utilisation, un 'clic' et plus rien. Pas solide la LED !!
