    I installed these behind my living room TV, and boy do these really change the feel of the room. The ambient lighting that these add really add a perception of value to your comfort zone. Syncing these with my main lights greatly increase the lighting which I appreciate.

    Great ambient lights for your office or background studio setup. Also works great for product photography and other various uses. You can use different settings after downloading the themes from the available options on the cloud, but I like to set my own orange teal backdrop to resemble the Hollywood color schemes.

    I bought two playbars to highlight a metal painting on my wall as opposed to placing behind or below a TV. It really made the painting look vibrant. While the play bars can be quite effective for a TV I find that the light strips are more dramatic and are more even in light distribution when completely surrounding the TV.

    We placed these behind the TV and use the Phillips Hue app on the computer to change the lights based on the color of the movie. They work great.

    They are awesome for PC which is what I purchased them for. 2 is enough for most setups to do the active sync lighting effect, but 4 is almost overkill. 3 is the perfect amount which is minorly upsetting since they come in 2 packs. Worth the money if you have a PC and want light sync. Bridge required.

    It’s alright. Seems to have the same color variety as the hue lights. Wish they were bigger since my 85 inch tv is brighter than they are.

    I purchased these for my bedroom television. They work just as they are advertised. They add that little extra to the tv watching experience. If you are not familiar with the Philips Hue product line, you should do some research on what all is needed for them to get the most out of them. They can be used in places other then your tv.

    Nice Smart Lights to add to your Smart Home

    I bought these lights to add to a house already full of Hue bulbs and lightstrips. These things make a good addition and add a night accent light to your wall. However, for these things to work well they need to be positioned properly. It took me awhile to get a good position for it to both provide a nice accent light, but also keep it kinda hidden so you're not looking directly at the bulbs. The angles that the stands support are pretty much limited to 90/180 degrees. So that's a bummer. But overall decent product to add to your smart home.
