Over-cheapened trashy LED bulb

While I can appreciate the desire of the manufacturer of this style of bulb to make production cheaper, I think they may have gone too far.

The usual spring contact inserts that connect to the smoothing capacitor and the incoming supply have been replaced with direct solder connections that are disturbingly close to the aluminium substrate of the panel.

Add a good splash of glue that has completely obscured one of the LEDs and you have a low class bulb that has a high risk of failing with a bang due to poor electrical separation and heat.
