Customer Ratings & Reviews

Smart lighting by philips is the way to go. It can change the whole mood and feeling of a room. These were pretty easy to install on the back of the television where I have them. You can even use them as an accent for a bookshelf or lighting for a closet if you're creative enough. Try them it. They're great.

Love the lights. Super easy setup and easy to use. Great ambiance. Unfortunately Phillips left out one of the screws and adhesive discs to mount and they won’t send a replacement but rather suggest I return the entire set to the store. I would have expected better customer service from the manufacturer.

I recently moved into a new apartment that lets me have an office and wanted to do something special to spruce up my work station. I bought the Philips LED Bar Light that comes in pairs and mounted one each behind two monitors that I have on my desk facing upwards. They provide a beautiful ambient to the room allowing you to change to whichever color you want or use one of their presets (relaxing, aurora lights, tropical twilight, bright, dimmed, etc...). For me, I like these lights because sometimes switching the color up changes my mood or provides a "change of scenery ambiance" if that makes sense giving me a refreshing rejuvenation to continue working. These fall into the "nice to have category" for me and are not essential to your workstation. as you will see in the other reviews these lights do an amazing job of increasing the cool factor of your tv area or computer setup. In case you missed it from other reviews, you will need the Philips Hue Bridge in order to connect the lights to your phone or other virtual assistances.

Upgraded from some Bloom lights I had behind my tv. Way brighter and being able to hide them easier is a plus. I do have three Play bars currently attached to my tv with the sync box. The effect is amazing can't wait to get my hands on the 75" gradient lightstrip to step it up even more.

Way overpriced fun. I can't justify this product any other way that just say they're fun. The Hue brand lights are always a good quality product with fairly durable materials and respectable technology. In the smart lighting market they continue to live up to their reputation. The light is responsive and fast, which isn't always common when using something that isn't hosted locally/on your own network. The app is intuitive and easy to use. Once the bridge is adopted then adding lights is a breeze. Adding the bridge can be a challenge depending on how your home network is setup, but I'd say the vast majority of home users won't have an issue. The colors are vibrant and bright and the app itself has some really cool features. The size of these are a bit smaller than I expected, but if you're mounting them behind a TV/monitor you'll appreciate that.

These are rather bright and the colors are great. I have mounted several in my basement as downlights. The ceiling is painted black so the cable is easily hidden. The mounts are easily drilled through for permanent screwed-in installation. The adhesive is garbage.

Easy to setup both in the app and in the house. Nice bright colors. Would love to have a longer cord.

I have always been a huge fan of the Philips Hue products and this one is no exception. I initally purcahsed these to stick to the back of my monitors to provide some extra backlight at my desk. The light produced from these is even. These light bars get even better with the inclusion of the Hue Sync application on a PC. Hue Sync will automatically (and quickly depending on your connection/settings for the Hue Bridge) change to colors on the fly to match what is going on on your screen. My only real complaint is that the units do get a bit warm which causes the housing to click as they cool down.

The bars did exactly as designed. Had to return only because they weren’t needed in the final layout. Which I hated cause they were also on sale.

Awesome lights. I have these connected with a strip light as well and the compliment the room perfectly.

These lights work very well, great color, easy to setup, the only con is they are expensive!

Purchased this along with the sync box in order to create more ambiance for the home theater since we have been stuck at home because of covid. Even though it is super pricey it really does light up the room and set the tone in movies along of course with the surround sound.

These lights are great! We had an area in our family room that we wanted to light up differently and these lights really worked out and were easy to install. While a little pricey when compared to other alternatives, these lights are worth it.

It is worth it - the lighting is great and easy to use -Set up was very easy and the two sided attachment stick on like glue (make sure you mount it right the first time). Looks great and doesn't heat up the way a lightbulb or strip would.

These work great behind your TV to backlight the TV. If you want the color of the lights to sync with what is on your TV Hue offers another gadget that you plug your HDMI output into and it changes the lights to match the onscreen content. Pretty cool but not inexpensive.

Addicted to Philips Hue and this was the right choice for lighting the wall behind my TV. Like all Philips Hue products, it's an easy setup with the rest of your Philips Hue products OR first time. Just make sure you have the Philips Hue Bridge to tie everything together. (You only need one by your internet router) Four stars because it is overpriced in my opinion. If it were cheaper, I would own more!

Well, it was easy setup, connected to the hub quickly.. and off and running we went! The lights change with all activity of the game and/or movies, very impressive..but just a little on the pricey side, other than the price it’s a great product!

Paired with my DJ mixer i have a professional light show going.... I'll be buying a few more later.. They are on the high end in price. But they are nice. If you can afford them, go ahead and grab em!

I love these lights, so much. Starting my gaming setup I had led light strips, but I wanted a better option for me. These light bars can sync up on your phone and can change to whatever color you want. If you are a gamer, these are the best things you can find.

Very happy with my purchase. Fun to be able to change the colors to what we like only problem with this is I thought that it would automatically change with my TV through the application like advertised in video, but to get it to sync to your TV with color changes you will have to spend another $230 to get the Phillip's Hue Play HDMI Sync Box. Other than that great purchase.
