Customer Ratings & Reviews

The good: 1. It's Phillips hue and works just like a hue bulb would with your hue hub (does not work with generation 1 hubs however). 2. The color is accurate, vibrant, bright, and saturated. 3. Great for a behind the tv ambilight setup if you have the hue box. 4. I do not have the hue box but it still works great while running the hue sync app from my computer and airplaying to the tv. 5. Amazon / Apple / Google compatible (as is all hue) 6. All of the other things that are good about hue lights. THE BAD: 1. This thing has less led's per meter than any strip I have ever seen. It claims there are 30 per meter but that is 100% false. I am used to 60-144 per meter however, but those are more technical/DIY type strips for intensive installations. 2. It is RGB, not "Addressable RGB" (like the hue gradient is). I think for the price, having to have all of the lights be 1 static color at a time is a RIP OFF. It would have cost them literally pennies on the dollar to give us some patterns / chasing effects...but I guess thats what the gradient strip is for (rolls eyes). 3. THE PRICE. I can't believe I spent so much on this.... I have three of them...and the outdoor one! : | 4. The sync box would make this a much better product, but the sync box is the most absurdly priced gadget I have ever seen in my life. If you are going for behind the tv with one of these, do yourself a favor and check out GOVEE RGBIC STRIPS! All that said, it's still hue, and high quality, and works very well. Just make sure that it is hidden (either out of sight or using channel diffusers) and you'll love em!

The Philips Hue lightstrip V3 (without Bluetooth) works great ! This works well with our Google Home voice commands as well. We have been looking at these for a while and finally they went on sale so we bought two sets (thank you Best Buy for shipping so fast). This version needs a Philips Hue Hub (we already had our Philips Hub setup on our network from a prior Philips light purchase). We were reading about people not having luck with the double sided tape on the back of these, but we have had great luck with them. These stick to the cabinets fine. After installing these, we had to update the software in the lightstrip controller. That took ~5 mins for each set. These lights have infinite color variations via their app. With our Google Home we can ask Google to change the color and brightness with our voice. This makes is so easy to use. We added a switch in the middle of the extension cord to help turn the lights off/on even faster (for those times Google doesn't recognize our voice). I ran out of heat shrink and had to use electrical tape - the good thing is nobody sees this so I wasn't as concerned with the appearance. The one downside is Philips does not have a way to split your lightstrip into multiple sections. We wanted to split one lightstrip set to work on both sides of our microwave, so we found some "Litcessory" connectors and extenders from another place. With Litcessory we were able to split the lightstrip in multiple places and even added some uplights above our refrigerator (bonus)! Before the lightstrip, we had hardwired round LED white puck lights underneath our cabinets for many, many years. They worked fine, but this Phiips lightstrip is so much brighter than our old puck lights. The difference between the old puck lights and these lightstrips is amazing! The ability to adjust the brightness and color makes these just great. Definitely would do this again !! Now we are looking at all the other places we can use lightstrips !!

Awesome lighting. Easy to connect and setup. You will need a bridge to control the lights through your router, i found out the hard way. Can extend up to 32’ with extensions

I got the non Bluetooth because of the price and I have the hub. I installed 35ft in 5 sections of under cabinet lighting in my kitchen. They cant put out multi colors at the same time like LIFX but with litcessory products you can cut and run extensions in between strips. They are brighter than most of the cheap ones on Amazon and with hue you can run a reliable wireless dimming and scene switch. Good product overall

I have a few sets of these lights in my house and have been happy with their performance. I had another brand of lightstrip for my desk, and wanted to change it to Hue so I can control it all from the app. Installation was easy as you just peel off the adhesive backing and apply to your surface. Lights are bright and they are easy to setup to work with Alexa.

Put this above and below cabinets. Super easy to install, did purchase an extension cable to connect under cabinet lightstrip 40" to the larger light strip above cabinet. Easy install hardest part was fishing extension wire I purchased thru void next to cabinet. Love the lighting in the kitchen.

Multi-colored strip. Links with hue bridge only. Has sticky tape. Goes well with my tv. Easy to install and setup.

It is no doubt that Philips is a leader in making hue lights. The light strip is an awesome addition to my home. Quality is super and setup is straightforward using hue app on my iPhone. I have purchased 3 packs. I installed one under my office desk, second is under kitchen cabinets, and third one is under kitchen island. At night I do not have to turn on my main lights as those 3 hue strips are enough to give me warm and fantastic lightning. Great product!

Wanted to add some light behind the steps, so i picked up this Hue light strip that came with an extension. I wasn't sure how well the adhesive would hold, so i added some small strips of velcro before installing it. I also cleaned the area with a damp cloth first. So far, it's staying put. I'd buy more i needed another one...

Great and bright lights for just about any room. I used them for behind my TV. I love the HomeKit integration that lets me bark out a color and brightness level to Siri to change the light strip. I only wish it were a bit more flexible as I had to turn the strip 90° at the corner of my tv and the thickness made that difficult.

If you have Phillip Hue products/Ecosystem these LED are a perfect fit to add on. They are pricey, I’d recommend waiting for them to go on sale. They will eventually drop significantly. Top LED on the market with wide ranges of color. Brightness is good and very easy to install

This Lightstrip is very easy to install. I put it under our bed and its a great lighting feature to go with all my other Philips Hue Lights. This Lightstrip is synced with my tv using the Philips HDMI Sync Box. You can easily add as many extensions as you need as well.

I got these to go behind my tv since my brother got me a Hue starter kit for Christmas. They are extraordinarily bright for a strip, so bright the extension was unnecessary but always nice to have in case I decide to use it elsewhere.

Great piece when adding to an already Philips Hue household. Colors are bright and easy to install. Might need additional double sided tape as after 10 months the stickiness is lost on certain areas.

This has a setting that turns itself on automatically at a certain time/selected days so that I dont need to touch anything. Very convenient!

Adds great customizable color on top of our wall unit which fills the entire room. Sets a perfect mood throughout the entire family room.

I love these lights. They are the best. Easy to install. Just use some extra two sided tape.

Nice quality of LED products ... Easy to use with the app.. I highly recommend this product...

We love our Hue lights! We instants these above our kitchen cabinets and it looks great

I’d probably purchase the more dynamic Hue strip lighting before this older version but I’m very please with it (especially the additional length) for the “deal” price around Black Friday. This is my second, I’ve had another for years and it’s still going strong. I use them as ambient lighting behind 2 long stretches of plants in 2 large windows. I have a lot of other Hue and LIFX lights in the space & the dynamic combos available make up for the lack of color variation available in just the strip. I wouldn’t think this would be a great stand alone purchase.
