The box takes some getting used to in that it tends to go into standby mode and you need to wake it up but the experience is awesome.
No lag on light changes and the effects are really immersive.

I love the Hue Sync Box! now that we need to do our movie viewing at home, it has helped to elevate the experience by syncing with our Apple TV and all of our Hue lights around the living room.

I loved it but no HDMI 2.1. I have a ps5 and xbox series x. Unfortunately I had to return it because of the pass through downgrading picture quality due to the outdated connection. If that doesn't matter to you get it!

This is the best addition to my game room/ office I could have possibly gotten. I don't regret it or any of the lights for a second. Use input 2 and 4 for the important things that need more bandwidth. I'm cracked out on these hue lights. It was too distracting at first but one I adjusted some stuff and set the lights to moderate I got used to it quick. Now its on no matter if I'm gaming, listening to music, watching a movie, or even the news. It just makes contrast appear way better even on an LG CX OLED, which I didn't think was possible with perfect blacks. Can't recommend it enough

Very poor quality -- can't tell if that is because refurbished or if all 4K sync's are this bad -- would not recommend. Already replaced this with an 8K which runs different hardware and works as you would expect it.

Someone had returned this and it was repaired and offered on the Best Buy website for bout 1/2 price so I bought it because I somehow punched the little red button on the front panel so hard I broke my original sync box. I still have the broken box and I intend to take it to Best Buy to see if they will give me some "store credit" or some "off" for another purchase of more Phillips gear?

Works great and was easy to sync. I use it with my PlayStation 5, tv and movie viewing. Just wish it was fully 2.1 HDMI capable.
