This is a smart lamp that has multiple color and brightness options. It is a tall floor lamp (it stands about six feet tall, give or take) and can be controlled using the provided remote control, via the magic home app, or using a voice assistant like Amazon Alexa. In the app, you can set it up to turn on and off at certain times, including using a sunrise and sunset feature which allows it to light up or dim over the course of time (up to an hour). So, for example, you can set it to turn on at 7AM on the lowest brightness setting and get brighter over the course of five minutes, twenty minutes, etc. It does not have a replaceable bulb. The top is a transparent material and the LED lights shine through it.
It is a bit of a pain to assemble. Everything screws together and according to the instructions you start at the top and then screw the base on last. The base, however, is the hardest part to get on if you do not have help because the top sections can come apart as you are screwing the base onto the pole, and it is hard to get the base to line up correctly. Once it is assembled, it is pretty much ready to go. If you have used the magic home light bulbs before, which required you to go from the magic home app to the phone settings and back, this is much easier to set up. It is recognized right away in the app, and you can tell it what Wi-Fi network to connect to from the magic home app without having to go into your phone settings (at least when you are using an iPhone). It would be nice if they made a table lamp version of this, but if you are in the market for a smart lamp, this is a good option.
