    It adds so much to watching movies and TV. After getting this we are re-watching Game of Thrones and the light sync is amazing. I sometimes am watching the light instead of the TV. It is a new way to watch. Just watched Suicide Squad on the TV and it was more enjoyable with the lights flashing with the movie.

    We really like the lights. its just a little frustrating that you have to have things sold seperately for them to work and the high cost of each item. Wish they were a little more flexible so they could be installed easier but besides that they do work very nice.

    Verry niice! Much better lighting effect than the original Philips Hue lightstrip(s). This new lightstip (although much more expensive) is... *Much easier to attach to a TV. (I left my TV hanging on the wall and had no issues)* *Noticeably have a larger Area of effect. Mainly due to the 45 degree angle it is mounted vs facing a wall*

    Depends on positioning of TV in a room

    When walking into my house, you can see my TV from the side. If you have a sinilar set up where you can see the side if the TV, then its not really a good fit, as you look directly at the light strip. If you have a TV where you only see the front of the TV no matter where you are walking in the room, then its a good fit.

    I've been messing around with interactive tv lighted for a while, trying many different solutions. While the most expensive, hue works the best with the least amount of problems. However, with this price, you would think some corners that were cut that should have been left alone. The tv mounting solution is not working and I'll prob have to get some 3m hooks to make it work properly. They should include at least two to four more hooks for this 5v size. The power cable is really short and you would think that for close to 300 bucks they could make it a tad longer. What worse is they try to sell you an extension for even more expense. The zone count is OK, but compared to other systems and the total cost, I'd hope for more. Long and the short, these work and if you have the budget for it, you'll be satisfied. However I'm a little tired of being burned by a premium product sales pitch and feeling short handed.

    I’ve been looking at this Hue lighting system for TVs for a while and was hesitant. First, the cost seemed very high but what the heck, I bought it and had Geek Squad install it. What a wonderful product. I love it along with a houseful of Philips Hue lighting. Enjoy everyone!

    Caution ⚠️ If you pair this with the Hue Sync box there will be no going back! It will ruin you from ever watching movies or especially gaming with out it. It’s too late for me. I only use this and tell everyone about it. Save your wallet and heed this warning. Or get the set up and start living!

    When I purchased this, it thought it would be nice, but not something that would really make a huge difference in how immersive content appeared…. I was wrong…. Makes a huge difference. Also it can be used to add ambiance to room.

    Love what they did with the new ability to mount this strip in comparison to other light strips. I had to exchange my defective tv. I was able to take off the mounts and got some new 3m double sided tape and re mount the light strip with ease.
