Which I have always found to be dim.
Have these from some years.
Philips came with 1100 lumens some years ago as well. May have also launched another version of these earlier this year.
Community Reviews
This Hue starter kit stands out as a bridge included entry point to the Philips ecosystem, with warm to cool white E26 bulbs and a price that lands near the low end for Hue. The kit is described as the older 800 lumen version, which feels dim compared with the 1100 lumen bulbs that have appeared before. Shipping can also be awkward, with free shipping only kicking in after adding extra Hue bulbs. A solid way into Hue if the bridge matters more than maximum brightness.
Common Questions (4)
The kit is the older 800-lumen version, which is described as dimmer than the later 1100-lumen Hue bulbs. The listing can be changed to 1100 before adding to cart, but the expected shipment is still the 800-lumen model.
It is for color-capable bulbs; the listing's "warm-to-cool white" wording refers to the white-temperature range, not a limitation to white-only lighting. The bulbs can still do full color.
Adding the Hue white A19 E26 smart bulb 60W 2-pack priced at $14.99 can push the cart to free shipping, even when the starter kit alone shows $5.99 shipping. The order may need only about one cent more to trigger free shipping.
Yes, this is a starter kit and includes the Bridge, which makes the price more attractive than buying the bulbs alone. That also makes it a decent entry point if you want the Hue ecosystem rather than just standalone bulbs.

$25/bulb is close to the low for the 800s. I think I've seen them for 18 or 20. But this includes the bridge, making it a decent deal
I thought this deal was for color, good thing I looked.

The UCB bulbs are different - no support for Home Assistant, Wifi, or Zigbee. Home Assistant would mean you don't depend on the company and their servers or app surviving. You can only control UCB lights via Alexa or their app and only over Bluethooth. Happy you like them. But they have different tradeoffs than the Hue system.
