- | RGB colors on the computer screen do not correspond perfectly to the color displayed by the bulb. A lot of work was done to support the specific transforms necessary for the Phillips hue bulbs and as long as you are choosing a color that the bulb can actually generate the color display is pretty close. For RGB Pseudo devices there could be considerable differences between what is displayed on your screen and what is shown at the lamp. Many less expensive devices seem to have an underpowered red channel and so you may have to boost the red above what you need to see the proper color on the screen in order to see the proper color on the lamp itself. | ||
