    I’m using this on a 42” lg oled and it actually works! You have to manipulate it a little but it’s great!

    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/

    I had the Hue Play lights and this is an awesome upgrade from that. Been using it now for a month and works great. Build quality seems premium and attaches to the TV much better.

    Super bright, vibrant lighting. Only downside is the strip itself is a bit stiff, perhaps needs to just be broken in. Mounting brackets also not too easy to apply to Sony Bravia (x950).

    Not sure how I lived without these lights. They add a whole new experience when watching tv or movies now. I paired mine with the Hue sync and wow.

    Flimsy connectors, questionable quality, too $$$

    For one thing the light strip keeps popping out of the little plastic mounts which is really annoying. It's cool when it's tucked properly behind the TV, but when it springs out in the middle of a movie and hangs there like a neon snake it doesn't exactly feel like a premium device. To make things worse this light strip requires a $250 Hue Sync box to sync with your TV. So combined you're looking at $450 to make some light bounce around behind your tv. There are no options in the Hue App to use the multi colored features in these $200 light strips. I would raise this review to 4/5 stars if it did. I was also told this light strip would sync to colors I screen share from my phone to my TV using the Hue Sync app, but that doesn't work. All the Hue Sync app does is sync to the $250 Hue Sync box which I don't have. Since mine keeps coming off the mounts I may return it. Another problem is the little micro usb connector that connects this lightstrip to the power adapter is extremely flimsy. After I opened mine I plugged it in to see what it looked like, and when I moved the strip around a little it flickered due to a weak connection in the wiring. Makes me wonder how long this will last and I'm definitely on the "return it" side right now.

    Excellent addtion to my hue lighting environment. Adds another dimension to watching TV. You'll need the Hue Sync Box in order to use this. Expensive but WORTH IT!

    Just what I expected. A must if you have a Hue Sync Box. One of those items you never thought you “needed”. Not ever the same watching a movie without it.

    The light strip is very high quality and lights amazing, but( and i heavily emphasize the but) if you want it to sync on the back of your tv you have to also purchase the sync box wich is the same price and also a hue bridge which is almost a hundred dollars. Too much money for one product to perform its advertised function
