    This is an excellent device. Specially if you have Philips hue’s in your house the light behind the TV is phenomenal thought you would think it would be kinda of annoying, but it just really blends right in.

    Beautiful lights if you have the money and can afford them…I had to return mine because the strip is small and I would have had to buy at least 3 more for it to wrap around my tv.

    Not a bad device, every firmware update seems to help a bit. Device isn’t perfect, frequent black outs are annoying and kill the vibe.

    So far we love are Phillips hue light system. The wife wants to get more lights so we can really expand our movie experience. Yea it is pricey but well worth the price. I am just sorry that I listened to the employee that talked me out of buying it months ago. Went through several other light systems but this is far the best.

    This might be because it’s older technology from several years ago, but it did not work with my TV setup. I tried everything from Hue support to different online forums to try to get this to work all to no avail. I was really disappointed because I love my Hue lights and figured this would be perfect for watching content and playing video games. Hopefully a newer version will be released soon where all of the kinks will be fixed.

    Finally came out with the product and as far as setting your lighting to your tv and shows and movies it works great. Not super intuitive about hdmi switching and is a separate app which makes sense only bc hue can hardly do anything with another app to make it work. It’s got some ways to come but good product. Software engineers just aren’t that smart.

    Totally unnecessary accessory but makes watching tv at home a lot more fun! Only slightly annoying thing is that you have to start the sync via the app whenever you want to use it. Overall happy with the purchase since I got it when it was on-sale.

    If you sync your TV with enough lights around TV and your room, your experience when watching TV will change. Trust me.
