Excellent bulbs. Loving linkind products lately.
I absolutely love the linkind bulb lineup. I use them with both the linkind app as well as home assistant. The inclusion of matter is such a nice feature.They are super simple to setup thanks to being matter enabled. They are great size for our homes recessed lighting. I thought they’d be warm but they really don’t seem to put out much heat at all.The colors are so much more granular than on other bulbs. I like how you can get them to look and the adjustments can be so fine.They are excellent bulbs that work great.If I had to pick one negative it’d be that the scenes in linkind app aren’t dynamic. But they are very nice nonetheless.

Works well, connects to WiFi well, makes dimming easy and nice
I wanted a light for our bathroom, shower, and poop closet that would dim and not be so damn bright. This light does that. Responds well to the app, no connectivity issues with our WiFi. Works well. Lots of options for different scenes and light settings.

Don’t Waste Your Time and Money
the BR30 1200s don’t work with app and app doesn’t have the functions the documentation states. i started with Alexa with the two lights. One installed easily and the second was difficult but it finally was recognized in Alexa. I put them in a group and turned them on with Alexa. No problem. changed colors and brightness with out issue. but that’s about all Alexa supports. no scenes, color mixes, animation, etc. So i did the appBIG MISTAKE. I set the lights up in the app and the weirdness began. loaded a preset scene and it would work for a few minutes and shut off briefly then start again. over and over. changed presets and same thing. changed to solid colors like i did in Alexa and even tho the app said white, the lights were still in the preset color scene. turned off light switch then back on and same thing. tried another color but the scene still ran i tried Alexa and it would turn them off but they came right back on and the app again said a scene was activedocumentation talks abt lights not functioning properly and the need to reset the bulbs so i did the 6 on/off and then on and nothing. so they say use the app reset in the device settings for the device. its the recommended fix . only one problem, there is no reset!So i turned the switch off and pulled the bulbs let them set a few minutes and put them back in. tried Alexa again and the lights were still screwed up. tried to reset again and nothing. Tried app and still not doing what its set to and lights go off and on periodically. so i used the app to delete the bulbs, removed them and deleted the app from my phone. Then put the white only floods back in and they work fine thru switch and Alexa.i have a lot of govee lights that are great and problem free on the house but didn’t get govee floods because of the reviews. these had better reviews but I’ve noticed the good reviews are mostly the 650 lights, not the 1200s so beware.

Color changing, bright bulbs.
So far they work great, very bright

Linkind build a great bulb and these are really no different from their other products, but with some consistent nitpicks.The good:- Colors: The color reproduction here is great. I suspect Linkind is using a consistent diode for these and their other lights as they are very consistent from one product to another- Brightness: The brightness is the star of the show here. These may well be brighter than my Hue bulbs when maxxed out- Tunable white: Like the RGB colors, the tunable white is really nice and should satisfy anyone’s particular preference- Build quality: These lights feel tough, well manufactured, and should hold up over time (though they are not rated for outdoor use)The less good:- AIDot & Wifi-only: This is by far the biggest issue with these bulbs. Setting up an account for yet another app is always frustrating. Linkind has adopted Matter for some of their new bulbs, but that’s missing hereBottom line; I really like these and want to like them even more. The bulbs themselves are great and are really only held back by an old app and a proprietary connectivity standard.

I wasn’t expecting these to be as bright as they are, but they genuinely surprised me. Setup was straightforward: screw in the bulb, download the AiDot app (requires signup), and pair the lights in a few minutes. Connecting them to my Google Home was huge since I already have other smart bulbs running. Now I can control everything from one place without juggling apps or ecosystems.The brightness at 1200 lumens is impressive, and the colours are vibrant, not washed out like cheaper smart bulbs I’ve tried. The AiDot app is easy to navigate with plenty of preset scenes without feeling cluttered. I also like that it shows power usage stats for each group of lights, including total running time for the day or week and actual power consumption in watt-hours, which is useful for tracking energy use. Voice control through Google Home works perfectly with quick response and no lag. One note: these only work on 2.4GHz WiFi, so make sure that network is enabled during setup if your router defaults to 5GHz.For the price, these are excellent value. They provide bright, colourful light that’s easy to control and integrate smoothly with Google Home and Alexa. Very happy with these and would consider buying more to replace older bulbs around the house.
