Falls off at the tail end...
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the 16ft, and the 6.5ft. to trim my back porch. Light look and perform great, but it is a little irritating looking at about 5 inches of unlit tubing (3inches on the 16ft. and 2inches I’m the 6.5ft.. in Hue’s defense I must say, I measured the lights and the length of light is as stated, it just has extra inches of tubing. Besides this my only other issue would be the ability to extend the lights.

Love this outdoor light strip!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the way my patio looks with this light strip. It almost looks like a dance floor! The only improvement I would make is to provide some kind of clear fasteners to hold the light strip in place. The adhesive tape doesn’t stay on long term once the elements get to it.

Go with Hue over Lifx, it's a better investment
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Prior to owning any Hue products I chose Lifx because they we're cheaper, didn't require a hub, and had some better native software features over Hue. For 2 months I owned the Lifx Beam Kit and two A19 color bulbs. I can honestly say they are good when they worked...when they worked. After many firmaware/ connectivity issues and an unresponsive customer service ( literally a month to respond back ), I gave up and spent the extra to get Hue products and I'd never go back. In terms of Hue, you have to be able to overcome the fact they are more expensive and the setup costs of getting the required hub. However, you'll soon learn that the cost is worth in order to acquire great connection stability and well built products. I bought the Outdoor Light Strip to use indoor for my room, being on the moulding on my wall. The design is well thought out and flexible to contour corners. The small plastic brackets supplied can be screwed into a wall or object which the strip can be set into and held secure. This is great for indoor where theres more chance to physically move the long light strip on accident. In terms of connectivity, I use Hue with Homekit and pairs/ works exceptionally well, including a fast response from my Homepod. For google assistant/ google home, Hue responds just as quickly. In contrast, Lifx would have a long delay before understanding the command from google due to how the information passes through their cloud platform. Due to the robust build and weatherproofing, I expect the lightsrip to last a long time. One thing to not is that the coating on the plastic housing picks up lint and little things very easy. Make sure you give it a little wipe down after application. I can imagine no one would care for outdoor use, but indoor it is noticeable. For the foreseeable future, I see myself sticking with Hue. Lifx would have to majorly update their firmware/ product philosophy to bring me back.

Almost Perfect
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very pleased with the Philips - Hue White and Color Ambiance Outdoor 5m Lightstrip. I had an area at the rear of my house which is frequently used but which had been poorly lit. Not only is this light strip plenty bright to effectively light a previously very dark walkway, it does so with exceptional flare. Being able to set up a routine to have the strip automatically turn on exactly in sync with sunset and turn off with sunrise is awesome, as well as how informative it can be in being able to set up various accent colors to signify changes in weather, like when with the addition of using IFTTT, the Weather Undergound and the Hue app to turn the lights blue signifying the arrival of snow. If I could change the strip in any way, I would redesign it to allow for simultaneous multi-color display so that variable colors could be displayed in motion along the strip rather than only changing color by color along the entire length of the strip. Great product otherwise. Pricey but exceptionally well manufactured and easy to install.

Almost there ...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this strip light before Halloween to be extra festive. I was just about to drill the clips on to the deck railing, when I saw on Hue’s Facebook page that some people were having strips that the last 6-8 inches weren’t lightning. So before totally unpacking and drilling, I plugged it in & sure enough my set had the same problem. Best Buy made the return quick and easy. Guess I’ll give Philips some more time to get their outside lighting up to standard. I love the Hue system, with about 40 indoor lights I cannot wait to add some lighting outside.

Great quality outdoor Lightstrip
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Philips hue outdoor Lightstrip is the one you’ll find if it’s kind. Its heavy duty material and convenient mounting brackets and included screws allow for endless possibilities when it comes to displaying this light in any outdoor scene. The light looks truly breathtaking when shining upon a wall or figure and the color depth is really impressive. I took away one star because the last 3 inches do not light and I have read this has been a common problem.

Awesome product, tricky to deploy.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really well made product. The fixed length of the strip itself, as well as the fixed lengths of the power cords, makes installation a potential challenge. The little clips do work well, and once installed, be prepared to get blown away. Visible even in the daytime, and crazy bright at night. Put these on the deck and couldn't be happier. Pricey, but worth it. Best Buy makes it super-easy...dont undervalue your time and just go with Best Buy.

Tv lighting
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this product a little unconventionally. Though it’s meant for outdoor lighting use, I used it as a back wall light for my tv. Philips also sells led strips that are more cost effective for this purpose but I have no complaints. Be aware you need the hub to use this product

High quality Led strip
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a high-quality LED strip, but you’re what you’re paying for it you expect to be. However simply too short for any big projects and there’s no way extending it. On the other side you cant shorten it either. There is another one available that is 8 feet. So make sure your measurements are accurate.

Great product
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The is very cool. Works wonderfully. Just thought it would be longer. It’s very expensive for how much you get. If you want to outline your whole path to door you probably have to buy more than 2 which gets pricey. Other than that it is an awesome product that works beautifully.

Like any other hue product
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works like any other hue product, which is a good thing. It is thicker than what I was expecting. Just be aware that this comes with a long wire and a brick adaptor, so plan for placing it somewhere where it cannot be seen or doesn't interfere on the outside

Nice addition to outdoor lights.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall I'm happy for this product after we installed on our gazebo. The app is easy to use, install was easy. 2 negatives that I can extend it nor add additional items light the spot lights work since I can buy the T connectors. Very disappointed about that last part.

great year round
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like that I can change my light color year round verses changing them out per Season. They are a bit pricey, but I am happy with the product. I used my Google home to set up a routine so they turn on and off daily. I do wish I could do multi-color, but this isn't an option.

Wide range of colors
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Able to fine tune colors and coordinate indoors and out. Light intensity is generally muted so best used for decoration and not to illuminate any particular features. Solid construction able to function well through and after several storms.

Great light strip
||Posted .

Excellent light, but needs to be expandable
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very easy to install and great colors, but it would be a better product if you could connect more than one like you can with the indoor version. That said, this is a great patio light for our pergola.

Great ambience
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was hoping it would be a little longer. The colors are great just wish I could change it 2 or more colors in one light strip. Otherwise it’s great for setting up the mood.

Finally a great product, but still stuck w old app
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A huge upgrade from version 1. Great light! Unfortunately, it is still limited by the Hue mobile app (still no music support), slow Hue bridge (slowness, out of memory) and don’t count on the new desktop Hue Sync to work.

Very nice
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works very well ... changing the colors from the phone is awesome. The only problem is the last 6” does not light so when you put these together there is a 12” gap of no light. A little pricey as well.
