Works well mostly but has a few flaws

I had the white only model before and so when i had the chance to buy the color bulbs, i was happy with them until i stared to notice a few flaws.
1) The most obvious flaw is that you cannot set the default color, if you turn off the light by using a switch or a power cut, it resets to warm white, no way to change this behavior. Only way the bulb turns on with the last color used is to use the app or Amazon Echo etc.
2) The Hue app only lets me add 1 hub to my account at a time, i added a new hub and i am no longer able to control the bulbs via the app. I had to delete one hub from my account!

Apart from these, I am still happy that i purchased this. LIFX bulbs apparently have the feature of setting the default color and my next set would be those bulbs instead just because of these flaws.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
