Philips Hue Go White and Color Portable Dimmable LED Smart Light Table Lamp (Requires Hue Hub, Works with Alexa, HomeKit and Google Assistant), White

You must keep in mind this lamp is designed for indirect light. This lamp is not designed to light up a room like a regular lamp. This being said, it fulfills its purpose and its a great asset to create a nice ambiance. I use this one in my bedroom since its a smaller area, and I use the A19 philips hue and strip for my living room which is larger. Portability is a nice feature that I rarely use. I have disconnected it and taken it to the bathroom, good for relaxing in the hot tub with low light of whatever color you choose (please do not immerse the lamp in the water, thanks). As with any other philips hue product, you can use other apps to create smooth transitioning sequences or to synchronize to music you are playing. You do have a lot of fun possibilities. I don’t really use Siri that much, but I gotta say sometimes I fall asleep with my lights on and its really cool just to say “Siri, turn off the lights” without leaving my bed or without even reaching my phone. This is a high quality product, I own many philips hue product and I highly recommend them.

I absolutely love this light and am glad I bought it. I asked questions on here first as I was wondering if it was worth it. Here's my take: It is definitely an accent light, but it is bright enough to light up a corner of the room, which is what I wanted it for. While it offers "colors", I really didn't see much in the way of "color" intensity so you get color, but if you wall color, you don't notice much as the color intensity is poor and not adjustable. I was able to get the white brighter or dimmer by using my Alexa with it. The one drawback is, you CANNOT adjust any color settings or light intensity from the Hue app - you have to do it with the button on the lamp. In other words, if you have it set on white, but you'd like to change it to pink - you have to go to the lamp and push the button to change the color, whereas with the color Hue bulbs, you open the app and change the colors and the intensity. I do not see that you can change the brightness on the light or using the Hue app at all, but you can do so with Alexa. However, what a great lamp for sitting in the corner of a room on top of a table where you want some light, but don't want to put a large lamp, or any standing lamp for that matter. I was hesitant to purchase it, but am glad I did.

I’ve been using this as a wake up light for a little over a week— I am aggressively not a morning person, and having a light come on slowly takes some of the edge off (not all of the edge, but some). It communicates nicely with the Hue bridge I already had in place and I can control it via Google Home, which is my smart home device of choice.It changes color and I like the form factor and everything is neat about it. But it earned its keep tonight when our power went out. My husband and I were both squinting at things with our phone flashlights until he went into the bedroom not realizing that my new lamp was battery backed. He moved it into the common area and now we’re happy as clams in dim, warm lighting, that’s plenty to get around by. Good job Hue. Thanks for the save.

Jan 2016 UPDATE: It now is compatible with Echo! Just need to go into your settings and it should be listed there. click the box to 'check' it and it will be added to your collection. I use my system all the time. Tip: I set one light to come on in the morning when I'm about to leave bedroom so i can see going into living room without fumbling with light switches. Then as I'm about to leave for work, I just say "Alexa, turn off table light." and I'm good to go. Just one of many ways you can use.The Hue Go is a nice addition to the Philips Hue lighting system. It's about the size of a small rice bowl and does just what it says. makes pretty accent lighting. the lights are crisp and its an interesting concept. you can set it 'flat' on a table (like a bowl) or it can be set at an angle, like shown in the picture. Just depends on where you want the light to go for the mood you are creating. It also adds effortlessly to your Hue app or Hue Pro. (I use both). However, couple items of note before you jump in..1- this is compatible with your Echo device2- the charge lasts for about 3 hours when unplugged so plan accordingly3- if you are using alarms/timers on it, keep it plugged in to work properly4- not waterproof or shatterproofBesides that, I enjoy the light, which is now #4 on my system. recommended.
