Philips HueGo Smart Portable Dimmable Table Lamp, White - White and Color Ambiance LED Color-Changing Light - 1 Pack - Indoor and Outdoor Use - Control with Hue App or Voice Assistant

Title: Surprisingly Versatile and Delightful Portable LightRating: 4.5 out of 5 stars"I purchased the Philips Hue Go with some skepticism, wondering if it would truly be worth the price for a portable light. However, I've been pleasantly surprised by its versatility and how much I enjoy using it.Pros:* Portability is excellent: The size and weight are perfect for moving it around the house, taking it outside for gatherings, or even packing it for travel. The battery life is decent, lasting several hours on a moderate brightness setting.* Hue Ecosystem Integration: Seamlessly integrates with my existing Hue setup. Controlling it through the app, setting scenes, and even syncing it with music or movies is a breeze.* Beautiful Color and Light Quality: The colors are vibrant and the light is diffused nicely, creating a pleasant ambiance. The ability to cycle through preset scenes or create custom ones is a fantastic feature.* Multiple Control Options: You can control it through the Hue app, voice assistants (like Alexa or Google Assistant), or the physical button on the back for quick changes.* Great for Ambiance: It's perfect for creating a cozy atmosphere in any room, as a night light, or for adding a pop of color to outdoor gatherings.Cons:* Price: It's definitely on the pricier side for a portable light.* Brightness: While bright enough for most ambient lighting, it might not be sufficient for tasks requiring strong, direct light.* Charging: It uses a proprietary charging base, which means you need to carry it with you if you're traveling for a longer period. A USB-C charging port would have been a great upgrade.Overall:The Philips Hue Go is a fantastic portable light that adds a touch of magic to any space. If you're already invested in the Hue ecosystem, it's a no-brainer. Even if you're new to Hue, the Go is a great starting point. While the price is a bit steep, the quality, versatility, and sheer enjoyment it provides make it a worthwhile purchase. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a stylish and functional portable light."

Love this light! Fun to use and provides flexibility for mood, brightness level and experience. I think I may purchase a few more.

I was very surprised with how useful this light is. I originally bought this to light up a small corner of my home office, but I often find myself unplugging it and moving it into the living room at night for an extra splash of ambience.Full color range and brightness options, so it can easily add to the warmth of any room - even if it’s just on the white color. But as an added bonus, this light has a candle feature that mimics the flicker of a candle. So it’s perfect on a coffee table if you want that feel, while offering the safety of not having an open flame in places you’re concerned about safety. (Ie, if you have little ones that could burn themselves or an animal that might knock a candle over inadvertently)Battery life is great. At full blast, it usually lasts about 5 or 6 hours. More than enough for a regular night. You can squeeze more time out if you drop the brightness or utilize the power save mode.I’ll admit: yes, this is pricey. But it has been worth every cent. When I start doing more things in my backyard, this is going to be a fantastic portable like I can place anywhere to create a more welcoming atmosphere for guests. In short, it offers a ton of flexibility for any setting without making you dependent on a power source normally required for a lamp.In short: well worth the money.

Being a huge Hue Fan, this item was on my list to complete my gaming room. This table lamp did not disappoint, but it was so much more than a table lamp. First, let me begin by saying this unit is chargeable light, so once charged, you can move the light into any room or outside and use it. Great for emergency blackout conditions or camping trips. The light is fantastic and super bright when controlled via the App, the color scenes are unique, and when used for gaming situations, it turns your entire room into a cool environment. I recommend this purchase as you will enjoy its capabilities as a table lamp light and a portable light that can be used for an occasion.

I like these lamps a lot. I have two in the living room and one in each bedroom for a total of 4 lamps in my house. They are very versatile and, in my opinion, reasonably priced for what you are getting. I don’t have a Philips hub. I use the Philips Hue app and I also connected them to Alexa. So, pretty basic use (these days, at least)which is fine for me.My only complaint is that of the four lamps I currently have, I’ve ordered ten. The other six arrived defective. In one instance, the power outlet was completely crooked to the point that it couldn’t even plug in. In another instance, the Bluetooth didn’t work. And in a third instance, it wouldn’t hold a charge and therefore wasn’t portable. I experienced some variation of all the same issues with three other lamps. Thankfully I could return. It does make me a bit apprehensive about the longevity of the four I kept but I’m enjoying them for now.As a fun little bonus, you can connect them to Alexa and rename them. We named ours after the Muppets. It brightens our day (literally and figuratively) to say “Alexa, turn on Gonzo!” :)

I’ve had this for 5 years now and use daily. It doesn’t hold much of a charge anymore which is kind of disappointing but I don’t take it away from its normal spot too often. I have dropped the life out of this thing, toddlers have used it as a toy, the top has come off but fits back in perfectly and have had no functional issues with it. The lighting is gorgeous and when paired with other Phillips lights you’ve got an awesome display. Great stuff.

This was a nice addition to my hue set up. It’s a little smaller than anticipated but it plays a nice role in adding to the light scenes. It works well and was easy to set up with my hue app and Alexa.
