Even the brands don't do that much better. Brightness or colour temperature has degraded markedly by 3 or 4 years of most I've bought.
Colour drift has been particularly bad with any daylight or cold white bulbs. We've gone through fewer of those so may have just been unlucky brand choices.
- dylan604 8y ago3 or 4 years is 4 or 5 years longer than a regular incandescent bulb. The can lights used throughout my house use recommend a particular type of bulb to be used, and these seem to burnout in less than 6 months. This is a remodeled/flipped house, so maybe there's something wonky with the wiring or some such, but the Phillips LEDs I've since replaced them with have been yet to burn out after 18 months. Can't vouch for if they are no longer the same brightness at 100% now, as I rarely turn them up higher than 80% in normal use.

- LyndsySimon 8y ago... that seems right to me. I will have a bulb burn out yesterday that I bought a few years from now.
