    This sync lightstrip is amazing with the technology built in with the syncbox. Its very quick to respond to every changing scene no matter what you watch on tv. Well done Hue.

    These lights change the way to watch TV or play video games. The experience of the light effect is awesome. The only downside is to have that effect you need to have the Hue Sync Box which is pricy.

    Until I added this to my setup the experience with Hue Sync was okay. Since the addition of this the experience has been fantastic. I do wish I would have went up to the next length.

    Easy to setup, easy to use. Reads the colors accurately from the HDMI cable unlike the other options that use a camera. Having both, I can tell you this product is top notch.

    Absolutely blown away with these lights! After getting the setting just right for me, I started going through movies and shoes I thought would have some really good lighting effects. Wow! Such a blast!

    Makes your TV seem much larger if used with sync but costs as much as a new TV. :) Not sure what else you'd use this for since the since of the strip is ridiculous.

    Phillips has gone downhill. I began with hue products buying a starter kit with 3 bulbs and a Hue Bridge for relatively good deal. And they worked great. Later a lcd light strip came along and it was pricey but worked well and still does. So Dave then, they seem to value their products ( and their logo) more than they do quality. I got this gradient strip and a second light strip. Both are defective. Both. And it was brand new and over $200 for a gradient stop that when bent around the curves of my TV the lights in each corner short out or something and either don’t work or only green works on the corners. Very disappointing

    I put it on a 65" and it still works really well. Make sure to wipe the back of the TV off dust and debris. The heat from my TV + dust made the mounts to keep falling off--- my mistake/

    Very happy that I waited the six months for this product! I hate the idea of giving in to bot buying and them getting twice the retail price on eBay. Thank you Best Buy for restocking!

    Great Hardware, bad software

    I really like the promise of Philips hue lighting for the back of a TV. I bought this as well as their Sync Box. It is running this light strip and 8 other Philips lights synced to my TV. Hardware is great. The software is really buggy. Causes the TV picture to blank out randomly, multiple times a day. Sync box goes unresponsive. It has gotten much better in the last two years, but it is still really buggy and does not consistently work.

    Works well with computer sync app, wasn't able to get Asus sync app to work. Got this for my frame Samsung 55in it's a little big for it but I rather have it big than too short.

    Would be perfect if the lights were better connected to the sync box and would always turn off when powering down my Apple TV. Other than that, No complaints… except how difficult it was to obtain
