A: I know one of the features if the 7 color zones. depending on what is showing on the TV, the strip can show 7 different colors at once to match whats is on the screen. This light strip is more for people who have the Philip Hue sync box already.
Q: Can you use the light strip when you’re not watching tv through the hue app?
A: You can, but it will only appear in app as ONE solid color/light. Philips has stated they are looking into future app and firmware updates that will allow us to control the different color zones of the strip independently.
A: It will work as a standard lightstrip when connected to only a hue bridge. But if you want the gradation effect synced with your tv you need the sync hue play box which is another 230.00 dollars. You can also use the hue sync pc app if you are using it around a computer monitor. I mean it’s incredible when you have both... but is a 500 dollar investment.
Q: Will this work without the HDMI box just using the Sync app on PC and Hue Bridge?
A: This will work without the sync box. All you have to do is download the Philips Hue Sync app to your computer. If you have a PC connected to your TV, and you are streaming your videos through the PC, the box is totally unnecessary.
A: Unfortunately that’s exactly what will happen. People have tried to get the next size up (usually to make up for the fact that it doesn’t cover the bottom side) and the colors end up being ever so slightly but sufficiently noticeably misaligned. I suggest wait until you’ve commit to upgrading your tv, otherwise go ahead and get a 65 for now if you think you can sell it when you do decide to upgrade. Hope this helps!
Q: Would the 65 work on a 55? I'm potentially upgrading my TV at some point but not sure when yet.
A: I believe it would. I have a 65 in tv and the 65 gradient strip. There is room around the TV for a larger strip. I would think the 55 tv would be ok with the 65 gradient strip.
Q: Do these work with the new gaming counsels?
A: Not sure yet, I have PS5 - but the HDMI Sync box that I bought directly from Phillips was defective. I have read that the gradient lights do work with new consoles, however are not yet compatible with HDMI 2.1 therefore you will not be able to maximize 4K resolutions @ 120Hz. I have the gradient lights installed now but just synced to the Hue app and it looks amazing - waiting for a new sync box to be able to test the immersion features. Best Buy has been great, Phillips/Signify the parent company has not. That’s all I’ll say for now - will update once I get a working Hue Sync box.
A: Unfortunately no, they don’t allow you to put them side by side. Here’s a video explaining it https://youtu.be/wONayxL4xTY
