Customer Ratings & Reviews

The gradient strips are a really awesome product that hue put out. Super bright, easy to install and the colors are amazing

Was kinda skeptical of these before picking this item up but since I had the tv size and the bridge I decided might as well give them a try. Using the hue sync app for the pc it brings the immersion to a whole new level with how it allows the colors on screen to glow in the background. Installing the lights is simple just attack the lights to the back of the tv plug in and boom you can control them with the hue app or take it to the next level and sync with pc sync or buy the hdmi sync and enjoy anything connected via hdmi.

Stupidly expensive but works great. I was annoyed that the price increased and was planning to return it, but it works so well I had to keep it.

They work great!! They are a little pricey but with the sync box the perform great!!

I am using these as lumination under my couch and loveseat and the ambiance it brings to the atmosphere is amazing. The only thing that I would wish for is that I wished the design of the lights would bend better for a better fit under the couch. Outside of that they provide incredible movie magic to my living room increasing the experience to elevated levels that I was not expecting. The different levels of lighting and the seemingly endless color combinations is outstanding. I Love It!

It works as you'd expect wheh you pair with the also overpriced hue sync appliance. I have the smaller one (55") on my older TV. The sticky 3M bits on the older one for hanging the lightstrip have yet to fail me meanwhile these ones failed within a few hours. I've tried alternate 3M double sided take and have came to the conclusion the shape of my new TV either sucks, or Hue/signify does for not including extra supports for the larger light strip.

Excellent accent lighting for the back of my TV in pears, right up to my TV with no additional cables or transformers plugs, right and back of my LG

[Employee of bestbuy] The lights are amazing they give you the feeling of your own personal theater and a beautiful atmosphere that can be customized

The most expensive lights you will ever buy most likely (next to a proper chandelier). They look incredible though, but the biggest caveat is you need the hue play device which is essentially an HDMI hub to take advantage of the color sync features. It makes sense, how could you have a color responsive system without it getting color data from something. So HDMI is what sends it color info to sync, but good luck finding a Hue Play device in stock. This separate base station is $250-300 and is not manufactured currently. So sort of a dead product unless you just want a light strip behind your TV (which you can get for $40 or less with WiFi and the same no-sync features). If somehow this became a software update that does not require a HDMI hub base station that acts as a passthrough for all my devices, I'd update the review to 4 stars, but still not 5. To be 5 stars, I need to be able to use the color-sync feature with my consoles, and my Smart TV media apps (not FireStick, or Chromecast, again you need an HDMI in between the TV > Hue Play > Console/FireStick). In addition, the Hue Play hub is just not even for sale so this is an incomplete product as it is. But the colors do look nice, and are exceptionally high quality. Just not worth nearly $200+ for being a dummy strip. Phillips is out of their collective minds if they assume this will make them money without a software update. And you will need to have available power behind your TV, i.e. run a power cable/extension cord through the wall mounting otherwise you have no way to light a wall mounted TV without having exposed, dangling cables below the TV.

Looks cool - adds immersion. Awesome in games as well as movies. Fairly straightforward to setup. I wish power cable was longer

bought this to put around my outside tv looks great lights it up nice that don't have to use patio light

Must have, if you have a sync box! Had regular light strip behind tv prior, but this is much better

Make a room much brighter. The place I put it at was great. the price could be a litter better other then that it has service it purchase.

Take your TV to the next level! Installation can be tricky but totally worth it! Makes my 77 in TV feel even bigger as explosions extend beyond the screen.

The price is steep so if your looking for a good discount go open box. The lights are great although be aware theres no coverage of the bottom. So I added a lightbar to my tv stand and the back of my tv.

I previously had 3 of the "Philips Hue Play White and Color Ambiance Bar Lights" and ended disconnecting those and the "Hue Play HDMI Sync Box" and parking the set in storage because they were sluggish, not that accurate, and the HDMI box constantly messed with Apple TV 4K's video settings and I was not able to use Dolby 4k without the LG OLED TV constantly turning off and back on -- forcing me to a lower 4K setting and negating the reason I spent the money for the setup. I recently saw and then bought the new "Hue Play Gradient Lightstrip" and set it up with the HDMI Sync Box again -- and finally am happy with it all. The colors surround the TV back on 3 sides (top, left, right) in one loop and accurately and instantly display the matching colors reflecting on the wall behind the 65" TV (which is setting on a console and not wall-mounted). It was easy to mount the loop with 3M stickies and they seem to actually stay attached (the Bar lights would fall off the back of the TV in the middle of the night and scare everyone in the house). There has also in the meantime been a firmware update to the HDMI Sync Box and everything actually passes through as it should have 2 years ago (Apple TV > HDMI > Sync Box > HDMI > TV) and I can run Dolby 4K again. The setup requires a separate "Hue Sync" app on my iPhone, but it works well and perhaps one day when I am not feeling so lazy, may automate the process. Right now I just open the app (just when I want to watch good shows; not Cheers re-runs) , turn on the lightship from the app and click "start". When I am done, I put the Apple TV to sleep and it also puts the HDMI Sync Box to sleep as well, so I don't have to access the app again until I am ready for them again. I am so much happier that Hue seems to finally have gotten this right. My two teen-aged great-nephews were over the other day and both jumped up to check the back of the TV when I turned the lightstrip on from outside on my phone, after I had glanced inside and saw them watching TV without it. Perhaps a bit pricey setup overall, but it does a good job and really makes TV ambient against my white wall -- especially at night, but also during the day it casts a decent but more subtle ambience.

It's overpriced, but you know you want it anyway. I honestly would wait until it goes on sale, but it is the best done device like this out there so far.

Never mind what the critics say. This is a must have for those looking to take the home theater up a level. I wanted the 75, which is what I should use for my tv size however, the 75 was sold out. So for those looking for 75, 65 works well. Product works great, downside you need to use the fire-stick in order to have the colors sync seamlessly. But once you get over that you are good. Honestly, while expensive, it definitely worth it. Especially at a time like this. Stay Safe Everyone.

Great addition to my hue light setup. Worked great.

Outstanding Product. I have this paired with a Hue Sync Box and it is a game changer for video Games and Movies.
