GoveeE12 Led Bulb, Smart Light Bulbs Work with Matter, Alexa, Google Assistant, WiFi Candelabra Bulbs 40 Watt Equivalent, RGBWW Color Changing Light Bulb, 2.4Ghz Only, 450 LM, 4 Pack

Came over from LIFX, WOW!! So much easier to setup. Absolute breeze. Connected to Alexa easily. Love the brightness. 10/10, hooked on Govee now.

Lights work as expected. I did have to replace the Kasa smart dimmer I used with the old bulbs as it didn't have the umph needed to power these lights. You gotta think, these are wifi and BT, so they need more juice.My only concern is that the threaded part of the bulb is very short. I had read about this issue from others but it didn't effect my install. However, it may cause you issues when installing.

These Govee lights are nice and a good color smart bulb if you’re looking to join the smart bulb life. The bulb is decently bright when on a warm white color, but once you change it to another color, the brightness seems to fade, especially with red. Blue and green were bright as was purple, but yellow looked very green and not that bright. What surprised me was that the cooler white color wasn’t super bright either, even though I had it at 100%. Usually the cooler white colors are pretty bright, but these ones didn’t seem quite that way. They are only listed at 400 lumens, so I don’t expect them to be super bright.The Govee app isn’t bad, but it does have it’s downfalls and can sometimes be confusing to navigate, but overall if you’re just looking to have a color bulb and change it to different colors from time to time, it’s fine. At least these bulbs are Matter compatible so you can use your own smart app like Home on iOS, and add them to automations or change the colors within that app. This also means you can have them react to other brands sensors or whatever to create some great automations if everything is in Apple Home (or your other Matter compatible app). These aren’t in the same family as Philips Hue lights, but for the price, they are much easier to get into to see if you like the smart bulb life. Overall, they are a great addition or entry to smart lighting.Govee makes some good cheaper alternatives to the higher end brands but are still solid products that work well.

They went in just fine so they fit but functionality, took a little to get it all connected. I love how it sets the mood for sleep time by changing the colors to red and even sync with Alexa from Govee app was quick and easy.

I'm a bit disappointed. They're not a bright as the others. But the worst part is that half of the bulb plastic would be bad enough for open or clear glass lighting, but then they put the QR code and other info stickers on the plastic too, making it far worse and more obvious. They're not easy to remove either 😞

Very bright for e12 base bulb. Exceeded expectation!

These are great. Super easy set up. Another great Govee product.

I am impressed with the rich colors of these bulbs. I have a 9 bulb chandelier and a 3 bulb porch light. I had been using the Sengled E12 bulbs but was disappointed with their washed out colors. Most of my Govee stuff is for my TVs or for the outside so this is really my first dip into interior lighting. I was quite pleased with the colors. Similar to what my Hue lights are capable of. But for a fraction of the cost. The whites are as expected and about as bright as advertised by my reckoning. And I love the Govee App so much more than the Hue app. But let’s face it… I don’t really use either…opting instead for Home Assistant integrated with Alexa and Hubitat. And these lights pair up perfectly with all of them. I haven’t tried setting up the matter side yet but that’s next. The fact that they are Matter compatible is another huge selling point as I am trying to move as much as I can that direction. I can’t really speak to their longevity as they are brand new and I believe I am actually the first reviewer. But if their quality stands up with most of my other Govee stuff I expect they’ll do just fine.My one and only complaint is that I had to screw them in kind of tight to get them to connect. One more millimeter of threading would have been nice to have seated well without feeling like I might break the porcelain on the fixture.All in all I am happy with this purchase and guess I’ll go ahead and get two more sets to finish out my fixtures.
