I got a 2-pack of the Philips Smart LED Matter Bulbs which are controlled in the Wiz app and Apple Home. Love ‘em! Got em’ on rollback at Walmart haha 😆 I wanna get more. I loved the fact that they are Philips bulbs and you don’t need the hub like you do with the Hue series.

Phillips Wiz offers brighter bulbs. They offer a brighter 100w equivalent A21 bulb which is only a few dollars more expensive than the 60W. I personally got the 150W equivalent A23 bulbs from them. I think they do around 2550 lumens.

How can you say what colour is "accurate" without actually measuring it in anyway? You deciding which one is accurate is not an objective basis for anything, that's your opinion.

@@AdamsTechLifethose are a lot of words to say nothing. No one can get a proper tell on how accurate colors are by eye (maybe except for some highly trained professionals). If you’re gonna rank stuff based on objective measures like color accuracy, you have to measure it right. You’d be better off not including color accuracy if you can’t properly measure it

Your thread/matter problems are strange … 🤔. I’ve a lot of Nanoleaf light strips and HomePod mini and I never has any connection problems … But, that’s true it’s the initial « Thread for HomeKit only » and not the « Thread for matter » version. Maybe a problem of maturity …

Wiz really messed up the tungsten color on their latest E26/E27 offers. Mine are also red when set to anything below 3500K. The Tapo and Nanoleaf look great though in your comparison. Will consider getting some of these instead. Anything else I have from Wiz has perfect 2700K-3200K without any red tint.

I'm sorry to bother you again. However I've got the impression that in your demos you always use the vandors' apps to control the light hue and saturation (color and brightness). Is this because the ecosystems' generic Matter apps are not sufficiently muture yet to actually obviate the vendor's apps? If this is the case, do you have any estimation when they will be.

So the answer is Hue. sigh. I've been struggling STRUGGLING with Meross for years and am just SICK of it, i've been slowly converting to HUE, and they are 99.9999% perfect all the time. my Meross fail about 20% of the time in some way. All of these other brands seem like more of the same. thank you for helping me see the bambulzlement of this garbage. i'm dropping another fortune on more hue bulbs. these other brands are worthless on resale too just FYI. you can recoup a pretty hefty portion of your buying price selling used HUE bulbs, try selling any other brand with the exception of some nanoleaf items, and you'll see they're garbage.
