Brightness varies by model. Product listings show lumen ratings around 450, 800, 1,100, 1,150 and 1,200 lumens, with corresponding watt-equivalent listings of about 40W, 60W, 75W and 85W.

Energy-use values vary by model, with product details showing values from about 5.8 watts up to around 60 watts. Reported CRI values in the listings include 80, 90 and 100.

Some bulbs connect directly to your phone via Bluetooth for in-room control; others join your home Wi‑Fi network for direct network control. Separately, some setups use a bridge to connect bulbs to a wider smart-home network and enable additional features beyond basic Bluetooth or Wi‑Fi control.

You can find both white-only bulbs and full-color (multicolor) bulbs. Color-capable options advertise millions of colors plus adjustable warm-to-cool white shades.

Connecting bulbs to a bridge unlocks features such as automations and schedules, multi-room and group control, out-of-home access, Matter compatibility (where supported), a more stable and secure connection, and expanded control across many lights and accessories.
