    finally, all mounting hardware. Works well with all my hue device at my home. Love it. give a good vibe to the set up. Cable length is long enough for you to do whatever you want. A lil bit pricey (as usual for philips product) Govee might be a good substitution choice if you want something cheaper

    Not as bright or big as i thought. The light strip is way brighter but these get the job done and are easy to set up.

    Love these, just wish they were a little cheaper. I keep them in back of my TV and they light up very nicely, all the color combos and themes on the hue apps are great. If you can afford them they are worth it.

    I have many types of Hue lights, The Play is great for situations where you want to bounce light off of walls or ceilings. I have mine on top of a tall entertainment center and on top of book cases. I have a Hue light strip behind my TV, but Play would be better for this job too. Basically you want to use it where the product is hidden from sight but the indirect light is bounced off of a surface.

    Added these to my Hue collection and place behind my 75" Sony Bravia. I like to watch TV in a dark room and the fully configurable colors and brightness provides endless options. Seems a bit more relaxing on the eyes while watching at night. If I have a complaint, I wish the Hue line was a bit less expensive.

    Great ambient light. I am using the lights behind my TV to avoid the annoying reflection on the TV screen when watching during darkness. It provides enough light to keep the room light enough to avoid bumping into furniture and avoid eye strain. If you are a fan of Philips Hue lights I would highly recommend the Hue Play

    Had these a little over a month and purchased them to replace a Hue Bloom behind the TV to offer more lighting. These have not disappointed. With having two lights that have multiple positions, they offer much more lighting.And when tied into the Entertainment function of Hue, it makes the TV experience so much better with adjusting the lighting with the screen color.

    Love these lights they really do bring a pop and cool ascetic to gaming areas or just living room areas. Easy to mount easy to use. Just need a bridge and a big space for the plug that it comes with. Which would be its one downside how big the plug is. Its pretty big but it does connect 3 lights all in the same plug so. Oh also they're really expensive especially if you get the starter pack. So buy these if you have money to burn.

    I originally went in to buy the light strip for the back of my tv but these were less expensive then the light strip they had in stock so I gave them a shot and I’m really happy with them! I use them every day in my bedroom instead of using my regular lights.

    Setup was fairly seamless. I like that it gives you the option for vertical and horizontal orientation. The lights are pretty bright and looks great with my other Hue bulbs.
