Have been using this for the past 2 weeks now. Key reason for purchase was support for Siri. Setup was easy and it does work 80% of the time. HomeKit does have issues occasionally connecting to this bulb. Works fine with Google Home and Alexa, no connectivity issues ever. Pros:

One of the main reasons you would opt for this bulb is their HomeKit integration. There are other better Google Home and Alexa compatible bulbs. Yeelight has a tough time maintaining connection with HomeKit. It keeps disconnecting from HomeKit and it’s frustrating and useless if you are trying to automate with HomeKit.

I ran into a handful of issues with connectivity and function when I first got this product (I brought 2 lots of 2). There were issues connecting it to my router. There wasn't a lot of help online to fix this. The core problem seemed to be a combination of their servers being down and authentication to the router (removing the router password, connect the lights then adding the password back and reconnecting seemed to fix it).

In addition to the above, I also found the recommended (official yeelight) app to be rather problematic. Setting scenes, trying to control a number of lights. You can set groups but it just isn't as user friendly as one would hope. I'd also find that sometimes the light wouldn't show up as connected or I'd have a significant delay with 1 or 2 lights. Sometimes 1 or 2 lights wouldn't even activate or change when told, you'd have to pick your scene or input twice. Also, the app had to be open and running in the background for any of the home screen shortcuts on your phone to work. Which was an issue for me as I am in the habit of closing unused apps once I have finished with them.

However, I also brought a Google Home mini a couple of weeks later and it controls the lights flawlessly with voice commands. I'd highly recommend using these with some sort of smart home device. They may function significantly better with a different app.

In the end, given the price point and performance (once you get past the app and connection issue) I would highly recommend this smart light. The actual brightness and colours are extremely good, especially given the low price point in comparison with other smart lights. I will continue to purchase and use this brand of smart light.

- connectivity issues; signal drops while in the same room with access point

Had a bit of connection issues but had to go into my phone settings and connect to my 2.4Ghz and change DNS to 8.8.8.8. Other than that its an awesome light that's easy to use Had a bit of connection issues but had to go into my phone settings and connect to my 2.4Ghz and change DNS to 8.8.8.8.

Used this bulb for a few weeks now and it's honestly pretty good for the price. A great temperature range for the whites and a nice spectrum of RGB colors. Its pretty responsive and was very easy to setup. The light dims pretty well, however I wish 1% brightness was a bit darker

I bought this model specifically as it was compatible with Apple HomeKit. It was a breeze to setup, however I found that changing colors via HomeKit was sometimes met with lag and strange behavior from the lights. More importantly, the colors (especially the whites) are significantly dimmer on HomeKit compared to the Yeelight App. No other bulb does this.

Not a big issue as the Yeelight app is decent and integrates with IOS well, but still worth noting.

TLDR:

Pros-
- Nice whites and RGB color range
- Good app and easy setup
- Cheap

Cons-
- HomeKit compatibility is average
- Lowest brightness still a bit too bright

Great light - app is easy to use and fun. Colours are very vibrant. Would recommend. Great light - app is easy to use and fun. Colours are very vibrant. Would recommend.

Great SMART light bulb for its price, liked how you can create SIRI shortcuts. Only thing is it gets very hot when in use. Great SMART light bulb for its price, liked how you can create SIRI shortcuts. Only thing is it gets very hot when in use.

I would highly recommend this lightbulb to anyone looking for an LED lightbulb that is easy to set up and use. Simply just screw in the bulb and download the app and it is fully working.

Bought this about a month or so ago now, works well still. A couple of things I’ve found though, It’s a real pain to set up on iPhone (unless I just did it completely wrong) and it goes offline every now and then for no apparent reason. Overall It’s been pretty decent though and I’m satisfied. It’s met my expectations, but not exceeded them. Bought this about a month or so ago now, works well still.
