Pros & Cons
Pros
It has a great range of dimming capabilities. The only problem is the lightbulbs will sometimes de-sync.
This vintage led smart bulb by kasa looks just like a regular incandescent bulb. They outperform wiz bulbs 2 to 1 in my experience, but have slightly less functionality.
Lights work great and were very easy to set up. Worked great with voice enabled alexa control. It syncs to google home really easily too. Have not tried with other automation kits.
Cons
For seven months, these bulbs fit the bill. I have many of the other kasa products which work flawlessly. Have been trying to get a new lightbulb for weeks.
Lights keep loosing connection. I3 sessions trying to reconnect it using app. The app is not compatible with ios 15 which is the update everybody have in he’s iphone!
Kasa tplink "product support" is a joke - a difficult warranty, registration, request process that requires you to have all the original packaging and has zero chance of helping you in the end. Will return the lights, very annoying.
Highlights
Quality
The color temperature is spot on and the wifi connectivity through the kasa app works better than my wemos
Outside at night they are bright enough that i have even dimmed these lights from the full power with the app
Nothing flawed about it just something to be aware of
Competitiveness
This is a little less than a 60w incandescent bulb which is about 800 lumens but most people wouldnt notice
They have 600 lumens output which is calculated to be equivalent to a 48w standard bulb

I took off one star because the bulbs are not very bright in a lamp with a shade

Incidentally if the switch is accidentally turned off obviously the bulbs will turn off but more importantly when the switch is again powered the bulbs will turn back on to their previous intensity and schedule
