Philips Hue Iris White and Color Special Edition Copper

Great lamp.

Beautiful lamp to see, even when it is not on. Quickly connected to the Hue Bridge.

The lack of remote control and the weak and expensive button battery that is required for the extra purchased remote control, if you want to replace the battery, and the fact that this expensive purchased remote control cannot control the colors...

That is all made up for by how beautiful the lamp is, how bright or soft this lamp can shine, and how beautiful and pure all the colors are, and how precisely it can be adjusted. It is better than its predecessor, in terms of light quality. but it is a pity that it cannot be adjusted with a remote control. If you do not mind unlocking your phone, every time you try to adjust the lamp, then the lamp itself is perfect, and better than I expected. There are also 3 dynamic light modes. Like changing color. Or flickering like a candle, or like a fireplace.

The manual is not really detailed. It is made to be understood without language. So visual instructions. But there are no instructions when it comes to adjusting the buttons of the purchased remote control. So I only have the choice between yellow to white light, brightness and on or off. I think that is good enough for ultimate ease of use. And then I can control specific colors with my phone, which is very easy and fast and works well and accurately. Opens the app, and within 2 or 3 seconds the lamp is recognized, and then you can immediately set the brightness and color + white light strength, from 0% white light to 100% white light. This all works very responsively and is very accurate.

I can, however, use the remote control to turn a standard lamp color on and off, and set the brightness. And I think that is good enough.
