Longevity unfortunately not given
I am a big Philips Hue fan and I have more than 50 different lamps & bulbs in use....but the quality of the Lily is not convincing and has disappointed me very much. Of my 10 Lily's in the garden are now unfortunately after 2 years already 3 lamps because of defect. Warranty has unfortunately expired.
If the lamp stands outside in a covered place, it will probably last longer. In my case, the lamps at the edge of the hedge are exposed to all weather. As I can judge, each time the connector is the reason for the defect, because it has also strongly oxidized there.Pro
- Easy to install
- Good light
Contra
- Weatherproof

Hue plug connection
The plug connection is equipped with very cheap pins. After just under 1.5 years, this "rotted off". Incomprehensible, why so what is installed. This has already happened with the second lamp.
Pro
- Lamp flawless
Contra
- Plug connection not weatherproof
The majority of the product is good, the choice of material still has to assert itself outdoors, the extension cable of only 5m is annoying.
In general, I am very satisfied with the LED Spot Hue Lily product. The installation is very easy and the operation with the app works very well and intuitively. I consider the choice of material for the transparent cover over the spotlight to be a disadvantage - it is made of plastic (for the price, I would have expected glass). Time will tell if the plastic is suitable for outdoor use. A little annoying for me is the length of the extension cable. Fortunately, these can be ordered separately, but only in a length of 5m - if you are missing 1m of cable to illuminate a certain object in your garden, for example, you have to extend with 5m of cable despite the short distance.
Pro
- beautiful light
- Simple installation
- Simple and intuitive operation via app
Contra
- Cover over spotlight made of plastic
- Extension cable only available in 5m
- could be a little more filigree (design)

1x lamp leaking and thus defective (was replaced).
