    It is worth the purchase atm, but make sure you get the hue play sync box or you’re only going to get regular lightstrip features. Definitely way better quality than the normal lightstrips from hue though! I’ll rate again in 2 years.

    Sticky mounting strips don’t affix very well. The thing falls off my tv despite following the instructions. Gravity is the pits sometimes :( The lights are great, but the proprietary ac adaptor can be difficult to mix n match even with other hue light strips.

    This light strip is gorgeous. The distribution is even, the clips are fool proof and I absolutely love the synchronization. Just remember: YOU NEED THE HUB AND SYNCH BOX. If you do not have the hub, the light will remain at warm bright setting.

    This light strip is expensive but it works really well. I had bought the light bars at first, but I returned them because the light strip more effective.

    Immersive viewing experience when paired with the Hue Sync Box! Had been debating this purchase for a while as I had a pretty nice setup using just play bars. No regrets. Looks fantastic. Really adds a new level to watching content.

    A bit complicated but pairs well with my OLED TV, does reduce eye strain. Turns out we are not supposed to watch tv in absolute darkness.

    The build quality is great, and the lightstrip is very responsive and bright. However, I wish there were more options to paint the lightstrip sections when it isn't being used by the sync box. Otherwise this is a great product.

    awesome light strip. Each small section can display a wide variety of colors. Watch a video of how it works. Then you'll buy it.. Oh Yes, Please read how to install it before you put I on your tv. Its hard to fix once it is up.

    The lights are working as expected and integration with the Hue app is seamless. Now for Philips/Signify to release a TV sync app for Sony to avoid buying the HDMI sync box.

    It's really cool if you have enough lighting. The Sync Box itself can be inconsistent. It would seem as if it would work a lot easier for the money that you are paying for the product(s).

    Always have loved my Hue lights so when this came out, wanted to get it to maximize the TV experience... Gotta admit, not too thrilled with it. Still love it, but the color is the same as a regular light strip, don't see the difference unless something went wrong.

    These are hard to find so buy as soon as in stock! If you want to get the most out of your tv with ambient light, this product is a must. This allows the action on the screen spills over to the wall to create a more immersive feel.

    I previously had the two tube lights that sit on either side of the TV, but the weight and the sticky stuff they just kept falling off the TV and eventually broke. At least with this the lighting is SO MUCH BETTER, and there are multiple attachments that help as well as it being lighter. One of the connectors still falls off once in awhile, but nothing that can't be mended. Love it!
