Review: Philips Hue White & Color LED Bulb (3rd Generation - 2016)
- 6 years ago
We put the latest generation of the Philips Hue White and Color Ambiance smart LED bulb through its paces to see how Philips improved its dimming and color spectrum.\r
\r
Has Hue caught up to LIFX in the color war? Watch and find out! \r
\r
(3rd-generation Hue bulbs can be identified by the gold printing of Philips Hue white and color on the bulb itself along with the photo of the product on the package. Also, Richer Colors text will be on the packaging overlaid on top of a green/blue oval.)\r
\r
Philips Hue, which originally debuted in new, now has a wide range of smart lighting products to make your home more beautiful through both tunable white light and millions of beautiful colors. But since the original product debuted, there have been some issues getting rich and saturated colors from the A19 and BR30 bulbs across the entire rainbow. So, has Philips solved the “color problem?” Watch and find out! ;-)\r
\r
Other than dimming and color improvements, the existing specs of the Philips Hue White & Color A19 bulb remain the same:\r
\r
- 800 lumens @ 4000K (Bright White) (60W equivalent)\r
- 10 watts energy used\r
- Adjustable white light from 2000K-6500K (Warm to Cool)\r
- 16 million colors\r
- 22+ year expected life\r
- Home automation connectivity including Nest, SmartThings, IFTTT, HomeKit, Amazon Echo, Google Home and other platforms.\r
