    Light is great but the adhesive is not the best. It started to drop after a few weeks but will start for a few days after re-pressing.

    I've been waiting for the gradient strip for a long time, when I was finally able to get one I know why the wait was so long. This product is amazing and so worth the wait. I see why it wasn't in stock for the longest time. Very sought after and it adds that much more ambiance to your tv viewing. Whether its movies or gaming, this light strip makes the experience really pop.

    Phillips Hue Fails to Disappoint

    Purchased as a gift for my Phillips Hue obsessed partner. It worked great, but he ended up returning it as his setup with the older lightstrips, bulbs, and play bars already look great (he didn’t want to buy another sync box to hook this up with another TV in the house). He exchanged for the Phillips Hue outdoor spotlights.

    Honestly this thing is the light strip we deserve. I have been waiting for this for so long. A few other companies have tried this but im so pleased with this purchase. Installation was effortless and easy to set up as well. The 7 different zones is plenty of area to light up. I recommend this to anyone with the Philip's Hue Play Box. Buy this and enjoy everything about it.

    An Amazing Home Theater Experience

    These lights are amazing! Highly recommend to anyone who wants to make their home theater (or just simply tv) more immersive. I also recommend to measure twice and place once, as it becomes a challenge trying to remove the 3M double sided tape that comes attached to the prongs. But overall, an amazing product and has worked beautifully!

    Adds awesome ambience to any lighting setup. Need to use it with a Hue Sync box and a hue hub. A little pricey but works great and wows all my friends that see it. Wish it had lighting at the bottom of the TV but I supplement that with a Play Bar for full coverage.

    Hue Gradient 65"

    Simple installation and setup with amazing results. Looks great behind the TV. It takes over for 7 play bars which saves you money. Hue sync box not required if streaming from a pc (free app). Don't forget a hue bridge though. Only con for me is the individual zones are not able to be manually changed yet. Rumor is we may get a software update to change that.

    This is a nice addition to the living room. I have the gradient strip connected to my hue app and it works great with the HDMI Sync Box. It adds a unique feeling of immersion when watching movies or playing games. Even without the sync features, this is a great light to add great ambience to your wall.

    The light strips are great and work great when used with the HDMI Sync Box. That being said, I'm not sure the whole setup is worth the price for what it adds to your at home viewing experience. I think it's a little overpriced and doesn't add as much to that experience as I would have hoped. I don't think this is for everyone, especially given the high price.

    Oh yeah / pairing this up w a Hue Sync -- this brings out the immersion of movie watching. It is something else. There's a reason why these sell out so fast. The things I don't like about it is the price (its sort of expensive) and its designed for no zones to go on the bottom; which is perplexing. I guess they want us to shell out more for play bars or hue go units.

    Great Lights, a must buy for any avid entertainer. You can buy them separately, but to get the most use out of them I recommend purchasing the Phillips Hue Sync Box. Also, measure the back of the TV first, the light strip come in different sizes, don't go by your screen size alone. I have a curve TV and I could have gone with a larger size.

    I paired this with my Hue Sync Box and my other Hue lights. It fits perfectly (with a bit of modification) on my 55” Sony A80K OLED TV. It works so well. The entire experience is so much more immersive after adding this to the setup. Highly recommend

    Expensive but worth it . Sticky pads that come with dont hold the weight of the LED strip so you have to use other means but works well and we love it . I wish they mad a kit for 85 inch but it doesnt go around the whole tv so you have to buy the Bars to make it work around the whole tv.

    Bought this for my Samsung QN95B, only reason I’m giving it 4/5 stars is the adhesive on the clips do not stick very well to the textured backing of the TV. Ended up having to order 3rd party ones of eBay to get them to stick.

    Really great light, though does not cover bottom of TV and also has poor connections. Fairly bright with vibrant coloring, power plugin isn't solid. I had to return my original for a second because if the power cable was not positioned and moved at all, the power to the strip would flicker. On the 2nd purchase, it still has that issue, but not as bad.

    gradient is PERFECT! Only thing sucks is that it only works with 3rd part apps. Like through fire sticks/cube/TV. That’s the only reason for it not earning the last star.. but besides that.. I use it everyday!!!!!!! Makes the room set the mood.. either it’s party, movies, or music videos.. I got many ppl trying to have the same set up!! I LOVE IT!! Thanks for making it Philip Hue
