These bulbs are obviously much cooler to the touch than halogen equivalents yet I find them as bright or slightly even brighter while the color temperature is a very close warm match. The bulbs seem to be built with good quality, it's only been a month but so far so good. Time will tell more. I have bought other brands and here are some comparison points that may be noteworthy: The material used on these is heavier but stronger than the weak white plastic so when you fit it into fixtures that have metal clips, your bulb will not get all scratched up, that's good to me.

Great for replacing incandescent bulbs.

Required more LED's to replace incandescent bulbs.

Remplacement parfait et économique.
