How bright should a smart bulb be?

Reviewer consensus

Most 60W-equivalent A19 smart bulbs deliver around 800 lumens, which suits bedrooms, living rooms, and accent fixtures. If you need a primary room light or a brighter task light, look for 1100+ lumen versions — several reviewers note Hue and Linkind both offer higher-output models.
