If you have philips hue smart bulbs or the gradient strip this is a must have displays color accurately from what's on screen to the lights movie watching or TV in general is amazing with the light show

I love the effect, when it's working. It's buggy though, rarely works right with Switch, often have to stop and restart. lack of HDMI 2.1 support is a bummer, not that I can find a PS5 anyway, but lack of future proofing for such an expensive item is unfortunate.

A complete waste of money. Worked for about 4 months and now is just an overpriced HDMI hub. Tried working with Phillips to exchange under warranty last year - they first tried to have me troubleshoot by asking me to take all my phillips system to a friend’s to try their WIFI during the pandemic. (????) With everything going on I didn’t have time to return and we were using our TV so needed the additional HDMI ports. Now I can see you can’t buy it pretty much anywhere except through Phillips…which makes sense because it’s a $300 paperweight.

This thing is a game changer. The ability to have your lights adjust to the color of the TV/Movie is pretty cool. You can set all the smart lights in your room - and they will all adjust to the color of the TV.

When it works, it is great. However, every few minutes it will lose connection for about 20-30 seconds or more and then reconnect itself. It can get annoying when you have your lights are set to go back to “on” when you stop synchronization.

Adding a roku device and game systems to this box, really takes Philips Hue lights up a notch. Watching movies isn't the same anymore with the Hue light sync. It makes your home theater that much cooler.

It took a while to get working as I have a complicated setup. Works well now and fills room with color. Great for movies. Hint: if you have a receiver and cable box, feed your HDMI off of cable box to receiver rather than after receiver to TV.

Upon the connection of the three Lighting systems and this unit made it possible to play any video system I'm personally using the Amazon stick and Hue color bulbs upon connection display a beautiful setting I certainly recommended

Totally awesome piece to add to your home theater. Keep it cool or it'll cut out the picture. Would recommend to anyone looking to add the last thing to their home theater.

Works great wanna buy one for every tv. Just make sure if you only use smart features on tv won’t work. You have to run what ever your watching HMI to box

I purchased the item to use with my Hue Gradient lights. The setup is easy to compare the two. The only thing that was left out was you need a streaming device in order for the sync to show on your television.

Perfect with play bars for movies. Wish it was cheaper though

Presumably, a good product, but doesn’t seem to be working very well with my OLED TV

Works Great! I can not imagine having our theater setup without it! This is the second tv setup in the house.... While this is expensive to put into action, it is well worth it.

Absolutely worth it. Had it set up in about ten minutes. No issues what so ever. Does exactly what it says. Truly makes the movie experience better. Especially when you have a good surround sound set up to go with it.

Price is so high. Works ok but some time stop working.

Buy it. You will love it and everyone else will that experiences it. My brother saw it and went home n purchased one himself. Note Buy this along with the PHILIPS HUE kit and you will be set!. Trust me... your gonna love it.

I use the sync box to watch TV only and it makes a huge difference. I do wish that Phillips would use one app to control all devices and not a separate app for the sync box.

Amazing way to get the full impact of Hue lights and app. Revolutionizes your gaming and viewing and music listening experience.

I’ve been using this along with a pair of Hue plays and an LED strip and the results are amazing. Only issue is that I have to use my phone to switch sources. I have a PS4 and an Nvidia Shield box and I couldn’t get the automatic source detection to work properly. I have Alexa and I hope Philips will add support for this product in Alexa.
