WorksUse own Yeelight plugin, not Hue plugin; enable LAN mode in app

They can, but not with the Hue Plugin, but with the own Yeelight plugin. You need to first activate network mode through their app, though.

Not namedWorksSeveral users report reliable, easy to set up; lowest brightness a bit bright

Can’t compare the two sadly. I’ve only got experience with Yeelight bulbs. Have several white/colour bulbs, and a LED strip. They’re fantastic. Work very reliably and are easy to set up. I’ve got mine plumbed in to Homebridge and they work a treat. For me (and of course it s my own personal view), I’m delighted I went for these instead of anything else. Been using for close to 2 years now without issue via Alexa, Home Assistant, and now HomeBridge.

Partly worksWork ok but max brightness lower than Mi Home app

You should be able to find a plug-in for them, there are a few for the different Xiaomi/Aqara/Yeelight. I have Yeelights and they work ‘ok’, apparently there’s a difference in how they control brightness though so the Home app’s top brightness isn’t as bright as what you get from the mihome app.

Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
