Quality


Once set up though this works perfectly with the pair of lights i bought for the tv.


 i've owned the hue hdmi sync box for a couple of weeks now and i'm still very happy with it.


Very strange as it was the exact same setup with the old router and never had an issue before!


Gaming with this is ok, some may want it on some may want it off)as for the ps5, if you have a tv that supports 2.

Price


Price is steep, but if you already own philips hue, this is nothing surprising.


Wife doesn’t like it, and the price is quite high for something that really is only used when watching a movie, which these day...  Read More

Competitiveness


The sync box can be a bit temperamental though, i recently had a new wifi upgrade from virgin and they've sent us a new 1gbps router.


The cheap £25 ones are no competition for these.


First time i had some issues with my google chromecast tv and the sync box.

    Only downside i had was after initially setting everything up and using it for the first time about 5 hours the next time i pulled up the sync app it wouldnt connect

    To achieve the very best effect and what i would argue is the intended use from philips your going to need the following productsphilips hue sync box £229

    Additionally once you’ve justified the price your going to need to ask yourself if you have the patience and reasonable tech knowledge to set it all up and your going to need wifi to achieve this

    The setup process itself isn’t too bad if you know what your doing you download two apps the first is to locate all of your devices and link them together and the second is to adjust sync preferences and turn it onoff

    It really does make films more immersive if you set the room lights dim and have this set up with just the light around the tv it gives the best effect so realistically you’re going to need at least 2 colour changing hue lights by the tv
