Philips hue lights....the best overall.
By David Williams on Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2025
The Philips Hue Play Strip Lights are fantastic! Setup was surprisingly easy using the Hue app, and the results are immediately impressive. The colors are incredibly vibrant and rich, transforming my [mention where you used them - e.g., entertainment center]. I'm blown away by the dynamic lighting they create – from relaxing ambiance to energetic movie nights, they deliver. Responsiveness is lightning fast – changes in color and brightness are instant via the app. Controlling them is a joy. These aren't just lights; they enhance the entire atmosphere of my home. Movie watching and gaming are much more immersive. Pros: * Stunning Colors: Vibrant and saturated. * Highly Responsive: Instant control. * Easy Setup: Simple app process. * Bright & Dimmable: Versatile lighting. * Great Hue Integration. * Enhances Ambiance. Cons: * Hue Bridge Required (for full smart features). * Price is Premium (but worth it for the quality). Overall: Philips Hue Play Strip Lights exceeded expectations. Exceptional color, responsiveness, and easy to use. Highly recommended! 5/5 stars!

Exorbitant cost for a mediocre product that fails on a couple key fronts.
By DJ S. on Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2022
Though the quality is demonstrably improved from the original Hue lightstrip (particularly for bias lighting) the price point is absurdly high for a strip that barely covers 3 sides of the associated television size. Mounting the LED strip took longer than I expected because the centerline arrow indicator (once located) seemed to be off-center. Once mounted I was fairly impressed with the brightness, however while the strip worked fine in the regular Hue app I could not get the sync box to pair with the (frustratingly) separate Hue Sync app for weeks, despite power cycling my phone, router, Hue hub and the sync box (while writing this review I tried one last time and magically worked seamlessly - firmware/app update?) Subsequently I was unable to change any of the sync settings like brightness (which was unfortunately stuck at 25%) or mode. After about 4 weeks the majority of the pre-attached adhesives separated from the anchors dropping the lights back behind the TV and leaving the large adhesive pads glued to the back of my nice OLED TV. One more potentially important note I would add is the Hue lightstrip attached previously would pick up on the center-mass color from the feed, but the new LED strip matches the border colors. In hindsight this seems obvious to me, but already having Hue Go lamps covering the right and left flanks in Hue Sync leaves the strip feeling somewhat redundant. I've heard (but not validated) that changing the lightstrip mode to "Game" may change the focus to the center. However since I was unable to access the Hue Sync options before the lightstrip came crashing down I was never able to find out and also seems like it would be a waste of the lightstrip's variable color functionality which is obviously a key feature. In summary, the purpose-built lightstrip equipment design is far superior to the original lightstrip for bias lighting. However for the price point there still exist some serious gaps that leave me gritting my teeth as a consumer.
