Customers are mixed about the color of the string light. Some mention that the colors are much more vibrant, and true, with in-between colors so you can blend it just right. They also say that there are lots of colors and themes that you can work with including music. However, some customers feel that the hue isn't as feature rich, and the colors wash each other out. They mention that they never change the color and that they cannot add additional colors.

4 Stars
These are my favorite strip lights!
I bought these even though they are pricey because they integrate with both Alexa and Smart Things. What I love about these lights are that the lights are very vibrant and you can make different sections of each light strip different colors.The only thing I do not like is the adhesive tape. It’s horrible. Within 24 hours they had fallen off despite following the instructions on how to properly prep and attach the lights. I luckily had double sided tape that I was able to use to reattach them.What I didn’t know when I bought them was that they came in two separate strips that you can attach together. I really like this as I put the lights on the back of my tv. Rounding corners with strip lighting can be difficult, so having them in two separate strips which worked well for my setup. I put one on top of the back of the tv and one at the bottom. I did have to buy an entension cord for another $5 with the proper pin connections, but the result was worth it.I own Phillips Hue light strips and a no name cheap brand. The LIFX are my favorite. The hue aren’t as bright and you can’t change the lights in different sections of the light strip. The cheap ones broke within a year. I plan on buying more.

1.0 out of 5 stars Unreliable - Stay away
Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2020
From a hardware standpoint, they're great. Very bright, easy to install, etc. From a software integration and support standpoint, they're just not worth it.

I bought the starter kit plus 4 extensions for under my bed. I've had two different sets, as one had to be warranty replaced already. Both my original set and warranty replaced set worked for great for the first two weeks, then stopped connecting to the Lifx App and cloud knocking out my Google Assistant and Alexa control as well. Hard reset, factory reset, app uninstall, etc. couldn't fix it. Daily power cycles worked temporary but eventually the hardware was unable to connect at all.

LIFX swapped out the first set but took them 2-3 weeks to respond to the initial inquiry. Now I've been waiting 3-months for a response on the second warranty set but still no response due to covid.

All in all I've had two different sets that worked for a total of 30 days. I have 5 other light providers (Hue, Leviton, Mercury, GE, GoSoft) and never run into integration/connection issue with any of them. Seems to be a problem with the LIFX Z. I can't speak for any of their other devices. The hardware seems good and the app design is better than most, too bad they can't get the hardware and software talking consistently.
