    useless hue sync computer app for windows and mac

    This light strip will not work with apple tv or other gaming console unless connected to hue hdmi hub, connecting this with sync app in computer (pc or mac) will only make this work for audio / video from the computer. I now have to wait to buy hdmi sync hub to work with apple tv & console, till then this is a expensive night lamp

    A nice sturdy piece. Get ready to take the tv off of the wall and I cant stress this enough, make sure that you are aware of the amount of lights that you are dedicating to this project and the space that you are using. The lights will take over the entire room and it will drive you up a tree if youre not ready for all that action

    Add this to the sync box for your TV and get ready for a whole new experience when watching media. This set up was easy to install on the tv and has been very reliable over the last year.

    Ya it's expensive, but you already knew that...this thing is completely unnecessary, BUT also a must-have for anyone looking for the next level movie night or video gaming experiences. The colors are bright and the transition speeds are near perfect. Bite the bullet and buy it. You will not regret it!

    These are expensive, but they are a great addition to my TV entertainment center with the back light. If you can buy these on sale I would highly recommend it. They are very easy to install and the directions are very helpful too.

    the lights are very heavy and I dont feel the brackets are strong enough to hold it, I had to order 2 more tru some guy on ebay and after several triesm velcro and then strong double sided sticky tape, they are staying on, this is pricey over 500.00 for the whole system

    philips hue products are by far the best when it comes to smart lights for your home. so easy to use and integrate perfect for all smart AI. this is a great way to take your home theater to next level. I have tried the cheaper alternatives not even close.

    Thicker than my TV

    I have to be honest, I did like these lights but the only issue I have is on how thick the cable got. It’s thicker than my new TV and it sticks out. Other than that the price is way overpriced. As far as for the specs, it’s like having 3 original light strips in one. So you are saving space only.

    Have one of these around my OLED TV and it's got to be one of the best experience boosters I've ever purchased. Really expands the picture to fill the room you're watching in. It's expensive and doesn't work on its own, so you'll have to put quite a bit of money down to enjoy it fully.

    This actually changes how immersive watching TV is. An amazing product yet again from philips hue. The only downside is the price but when you think about the simplicity and ease of installation combined with a simple app to control everything makes this purchase a no brainer!

    It’s average. Has bright vibrant colors but do not buy unless you plan on spending an additional amount of money to buy the actual item that connects it to your TV. Too much money for not a lot of use unless you pay more money to add the extra use.

    Awesome ambient light feature for TV surround. Easy installation! Easy integration with existing Hue bridge! This product enhances the movie viewing experience like I'd never imagined. Will be buying more for the remaining rooms in my home.

    This provides tons of colorful lighting for my entertainment area. It has a really solid reliable feel and the PC app that syncs the image with the backlight and other room lights runs great. Makes watching movies more entertaining

    A bit pricey but nice. Would have been 5 stars if it was half the price. I can't understand why Phillips stopped selling the Ambilight tv in the US. Only available overseas. This will do for now I guess

    Half of the strip quit working after about a month of use. When it worked it’s extremely bright with vibrant colors. Phillips Hue warranty has been top notch and have replaced the faulty strip.

    The adhesive back for the mounts are really subpar; after just one readjust, it comstantly falls off, but once i put on some double sided alien tape, it looks great on my 70” TV

    Must-buy if you’re willing to pick your pocket to give your entertainment setup an extra kick. Despite needing to buy the hue sync box as well as the hue bridge the installation was easy and the display looks amazing and super immersive.
