I’m using ring lights for my front door and by my garage light fixtures, that I have had for 5 years now, now I’m just getting rid of my other smart bulbs and replacing them with all ring smart bulbs. So I can get rid of all these smart light apps on my phone, and just have the 2 Major ones that I use all the time. I’ve never had any issue with ring bulbs. I actually enjoy using ring bulbs than any other bulb. They are easy to install and connect to your WiFi. But you do have to have a bridge to use these bulbs. Which I do. And I have my front lights on a schedule. So I don’t have to turn them on and off. Or crap did I turn the lights on or off. I love how the ring app is so much easier to navigate through than some of the other apps. I do have ring cameras and door bell and alarm system. So I figured I make most of my lights to ring. And I’m not even going to look back at the cheap brands. Yes they are pricey, but so worth it. But these three I just purchased they are going above my vanity in my bathroom. Will post pictures later

Updated Review (March 22, 2022): I originally left a review (seen below) which noted that the lights paired well with our Ring and Alexa devices and were very easy to sync to an automated on/off schedule, however, I really disliked the fact that the bulbs were flickering. Well, I must say, Ring has truly amazing customer service. Ryan from Ring Customer Service saw my review and contacted me to help troubleshoot and he also sent updated replacement bulbs which work perfectly. No more flickering!! We are thrilled and absolutely in love with our Ring light bulbs now that the issue is resolved. As a matter of fact, we plan to purchase more of these new bulbs for the rest of the house. Thanks very much Ring and Ryan for your excellent customer service and product! If you are reading this review and on the fence about purchasing these bulbs, I recommend them to you without reservation. Rest assured that Ring makes good quality products and even in the rare circumstances if some type of problem arises, Ring will stand by their product!!! Conclusion?-- Buy them!! :) Original Review: We love how well these connect to the Ring Bridge and they are easy to use with voice commands (on our echo show and our fire tablets). It is also easy to automatically turn them off/on according to a schedule of your choice through the Ring app. However the problem is that they constantly flicker. It's really annoying and disorienting. Not something we expected for bulbs at this price point. I don't know if the problem is the ring bridge or the bulbs. Apparently it's a pretty uncommon problem because most people don't seem to have any trouble. I only see twenty (20) other reviews that mention the flickering. Maybe the issue is that a small percentage of the ring bridges are defective? We've experienced the flickering from day 1. Nothing seems to improve it and we have excellent high speed internet, so the wifi signal is not the problem. We would absolutely love them and buy more if they didn't flicker so badly. It's a shame. We will search for another smart bulb alternative.
- Tracie Carey2023-03-08Not worth the price for the quality and NO support
UPDATE: Since writing this review, Ring contacted me about my experience. We discussed the issues via phone conversation very pleasantly and Ring did replace my light bulbs at no cost. I do still wish there was an easier way to contact them. Original post: I bought several of these light bulbs and placed them throughout my home. They do work BUT they have lots of issues. One, and this is a major issue, is that if your power goes out and is later restored, the light bulbs reset to the ON position until you turn them off. They WILL NOT remember the last state such as power off. This is really a big issue in the middle of the night when there's a power outage then it's restored. Your whole home that has these light bulbs is fully lit. What a great way to wake up in the middle of the night! It takes about 10 minutes to regain control thru the app or using your Alexa device. Two, some of my light bulbs are flickering for no apparent reason. One got so bad that I had to replace it. I used another manufacturer that DOESN'T have any of the issues in this review. Three, tech support is ONLY available via phone. The issue with this is that you don't get to speak with someone from your country and it's very difficult to communicate with them as they are just reading a script. No help there. By the way, this review wants to "Rate features". This product DOES NOT have Motion Detection, nor does the PAR38 light bulb. So that's useless. So, in summary, I would not recommend these light bulbs at any price, although, the brightness of these bulbs is great. The Chinese knock-offs are far better and more cost-effective.
- STAN JOHNSON2024-05-15Works as advertised!!
I am all ring doorbell, flood light cameras, cameras inside and outside, door and window sensors, window break sensor. Now lights annd bridge. All work perfect. Just as advertised. “Ring, You’re Always Home!”
- Amazon Customer2024-07-15Easy setup
The Ring A19 Smart LED Bulb, White works as it should. Easy to install and easy to set up. I love it.
- Lee S.2021-11-01Defective A19 Smart LED bulbs Revised
Two of my A19 Smart LED bulbs in table lamps have stopped working properly after 3-4 months. The first can no longer be controlled by Alexa or Ring app although it works manually. Device Health states there "Is No Signal from Bulb to Bridge". The second has morning and evening schedules. The evening schedule works well from dusk to 10:00pm. The morning schedule turns on correctly at 6:30am but will not turn off at dawn. It stays on for hours. Any ideas how to correct these problems? All our other Alexa and Ring devices work well. Revision: I received an email from a Ring technician asking me to designate some days and times that I could be contacted by phone to solve my problem. My reply included three dates (afternoons) and my phone number. Six days have gone by and there has been no contact from Ring support. That is why I have reduced the rating from four to three stars. By the way, I have two other A19 Smart LED bulbs that work perfectly along with all my other Ring and Alexa devices.

Love the quality of these lights and how they work with the ring network.
- SC2024-02-18Works well in app; beware if power to the bridge goes out
I love Ring and I love these bulbs. I have 5 Ring Smart bulbs that we’ve been using for several months. Note that these bulbs require a bridge, but the bridge supports many bulbs. I can link my cameras to the bulbs if I want, and at the time I want them linked. I can schedule the time the bulbs go on and off, or I can set them for dusk to dawn. The light is warm, the set up and installation are easy, and the bulbs have been reliable. There are 2 things that could be better: 1. You can only control the bulbs with the Ring app (not with the light switch). Therefore, if you have people visiting while you are not there, they will need access to your app from what I understand. 2. When the power to your house goes out, the bridge goes down. (The other Ring devices use cellular backup, so this is not a problem). From our experience when the power went out while we were on vacation, when the power returned, our 5 Ring lightbulbs came back on 24/7. So unless I am not doing something correctly, this is an issue. These 2 things are not deal breakers for us and we still like the Ring bulbs. But given their cost, I would expect that when the power goes out and then returns, the bulbs should return to their normal functionality.
- Cathyj0002024-03-15iPhone and Ring product disconnect
UPDATE After all the frustration I decided to just try my iPad instead and it updated and connected right away. 🤦🏼♀️ I’m not sure what the disconnect between ring products and iPhones is, but it’s just a major inconvenience. Not everyone has the luxury of being able to try a different product to connect. It could be on either end though and I hope over time that it can be fixed as I own the whole security system. Had one of these years ago. It was awesome. Got a new LED porch fixture and hated it so wanted to go back to this bulb. It starts running an update during pairing and every single time it goes half way, stops and then says my phone disconnected. It did not! I requested a new one, it was sent, it does the exact same thing. So now these lightbulbs are useless and quite frankly im annoyed.
