Can associate myself with the other reviewers in most respects. The viewing angle is very good, I think almost better as my normal halogen. Or is it the light color? And here we come to the crux of the matter already: According to the packaging it should be warm white ... well, cool white, although it is not the pink stitch is also definitely not a warm tone. Perhaps it may indeed in brown or beige furniture / walls but not so much notice when white walls it looks really bad. Have the lamps tried in the bathroom and found it not very pleasant there. The light output is fantastic but in spite of everything. The hum the other as feel very noisy coming with me rather than therefore low hum. But still can not be tolerated in the long run. My halogen lamps not hum yes. The delay at cold start is something irritirend. Can not understand that does not get a manufacturer like Osram on the series. Priced at about 11 euros you can already expect. Manufacturers there would indeed enough, but few offer insufficient a viewing angle of more than 40 degrees and that is for my purposes
