    These lights work great as behind monitors and many other spots around your home. I do wish that Hue would start expanding this product line further. I feel they have a great lineup but haven't really done anything crazy in the past year or two.

    I have these setup behind my OLED TV and they are great to provide ambiance and light around the TV to avoid eye fatigue if you’re prone to that. Like all Hue lights you’ll need the app to set them up. It comes with two types of ‘stands’. One is angled and the other is vertical, allowing you to place the lights is different ways. If you have a bigger TV than 75”, three of these lights might be better. The lights have the full color spectrum so you can choose any color.

    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.

    Multicolor Lights Done Right

    One could say that I have too many Philip's Hue lights in my room, so I am experienced in setting these things up and connecting them and all that. I am always impressed at how easily a new light is registered and how quickly it adjusts to all the scenes that I already have set up. In my opinion, Philip's Hue is multicolored lights done right.

    You have to get this along with the strip of lights - you won't get the same effect without them. They cover the lower part of your TV and the strip covers the top - you NEED both. If you are going to do this get it all or nothing - you won't be disappointed. It's like watching a movie at Disneyland

    Ambient Lighting

    The light gives just the right ambience. And the best part, I can change the color along with the mood of the content. Something to note, unless all other light is controlled, it may not produce enough light (depending on the color you choose) to fill a room as you may want. Does not take away from the use of the light, just something to be aware of.

    I now own three sets of these. I use them for TV backlighting, ambient lights, and general lighting. The hide well, throw great colors, and work with Alexa. Great for syncing up to TV and PC games, to throw the screen colors behind the screen. helps with the aging eyes, and improves immersion. I've gone all-in on Hue lighting system, and they have yet to disappoint. This kit (or the starter kit) is a great way to jump into the pool.

    These lights are bright or dim whichever you want. The color changes are perfect for any setting. The pre-loaded scenes are great but i also like the fact that you can set your own. The only thing i wish is that you could have a setting that made the lights change to music or a movie without having to download another app. i can't wait to keep changing all my lights out to hue lights.

    Bought this product and used it with the New Hugh Sync box, they are just amazing. I already had a light strip behind my TV so I placed the play lights in a large cubby on each side of my TV and let me just say that they don't disappoint. Colors are spot on and the lights are simple to set up. I like the fact that you can plug them into each other and daisy chain them to save on using wall outlets. A must have for gamers and movie lovers.

    I jumped on the Hue bandwagon a year ago and have been adding to my collection bit by bit. I recently purchased new 75” tv and wanted to try these lights out. They’re an excellent addition to anyone who loves the Hue bulbs. These provide a great accent to your entertainment/media room and provide a great ambience as well as working to aid for normal bright set lights. Very pleased with my purchase! May even buy a third.

    This light bar integrates seamlessly well with the Phillips Hue system, and the color range really helps! We installed two of these on the lower part of our TV, with the upper 3/4 of the TV using a different Phillips Hue product. I deducted one star because the included adhesives do not quite hold firm enough to keep the light bar in place. A few extra command strips help it stick to uneven TV surfaces. I was disappointed there weren't supplemental adhesive products in the box, but still enjoying the end result
