Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great lights but too expensive for what they are ( hence the missing star).

Great lights for a desktop or home entertainment setup. I have these around my desktop monitors to avoid overhead lighting. Really love the control of the lights through the app. I save a setting and can easily load the light colors I like.

Easy to use fun lighting. Added great lighting to dim room

Don't love having to buy the Bridge to make this work wirelessly, but the quality and lighting is great and I'll be happy not to deal with a sticky LED strip that falls off the TV every few weeks. Just make sure your expectations are set to what these are; just bright standalone lights that won't sync up to the TV unless you purchase an even more expensive box to route them through. As-is they suit my needs just fine.

Awesome set up. It definitely livens up the room. You will need to purchase the bridge for it to sync with your tv or you can get the little box for it to sync to your pc. Buying other things needed for it to work to its full potential may make you angry.

Added these to an existing Hue set up. these are coming on daily near dusk as a welcoming home light so we don't come home to a dark house. Also sort of a burglar deterrent. Very easy to set up if you have the Hue hub. I p[laced them behind our TV for an indirect light while watching shows. I like the ability to change their color too.

This kit makes for great accent lighting and can be used in a number of different ways. Only your imagination will limit how you can use these light bars to brighten your space. Works really well with Alexa, HomeKit (with hub) and took seconds to synchronize with the Hue iOS app.

The color quality and output intensity is not quite as good as the rest of the lineup, but the form-factor is great. These are perfect for bias lights behind a TV or monitor, or as little accents in small spaces. You'd get better output and color from a couple of lightstrips or Go fixtures, but if you have a space that these are right for (I'm using them behind my monitor on my desk) and you're already invested in the hue ecosystem then you'll be satisfied.

I tested this by connecting it to my PC and the experience was amazing. However, I bought this Hue Play lights to use with my tv. For the price, I would say the experience has been underwhelming to say the least. To sync the light with your tv, you need another $230 Phillips device. The back of my over-the-fire place mounted tv is overcrowded already, and to add another dongle just the sync the lights is inconceivable.

These light bars look great beside a TV; they add a lot to the ambiance of a room, especially paired up with the Hue Sync Box. I've never had issues with Philips smart home products and while expensive, they just work, which is worth a lot to me.

Great product, works well and if you use Iphone and Alexa devices. I do not use the feature where it changes colors with a screen but have tried it and it seems nice. Would be cool it it worked with tv and not just computer. Otherwise, puts off good light and works well.

Having these lights tied the whole room together for me. Putting these behind the tv gives the entire room a nice hue of color even where the overhead lamps don't really reach.

Really great color options and very easy to setup.

These lights make such a difference when it comes to playing video games

I already have the Philips Hue lights throughout my house and just recently bought an electric fireplace with mantle. I was wanting to hide these laying down behind picture frames to up-light the wall above it. These are so much brighter than the light strips and have a more correct and true to color similar to the bulbs.

Very strong light bars definitely recommend if you like to add more light effects to your entertainment system. As far as the price for the bars they could make it a bit more affordable. Especially with new competitors coming out with the same ideas but as getting the light for it to be one of the first to sync with my tv videos, music sound and free mode it has been one of my favorite purchase.

I bought this to go with my HDMI Hue Play for my TV. The lights are incredibly bright and the color range is excellent. I am going to buy another one to back light a few tall plants I have in the house. They are low profile so can be hidden nicely and makes a great accent light on the wall.

These lights are awesome and the family loves them especially my 5 year olds twins… I use Siri on my iphone to control the system and it is easy and works great… I just went out and purchased 3 more… Highly recommended…

I added the play with my LG C9. I love the colors it produces. It adds to my viewing experience. I also use it as night light because the bulb in my room is too bright. I downloaded the OnSwitch app which is an added bonus due to not having a pc or laptop. Hooking it up was East also.

Love these lights. I am slowly adding to my Hue collection. I have several and love them all. I have these on my desk and they light up the desk and give a great night time glow for the kids (and me) if we have to get up and get something from the kitchen.
