What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Work flawlessly with the hue app and apple homekit. Easy to install and control by app. Works well with alexa and easy to set up.
Arrived today. Works fantastically well. Arrived quickly and very well packaged. Comes with a nut.
Only thing to complain is that the charger makes significant buzzing noise when lights are at full brightness. This is my second lot as the first had a faulty light which amazon swapped.
The play bar comes in a box with multiple attachments to have the bar mounted portrait or vertical.
These are so much fun for parties, and have some lovely effects such as candlelight and fireplace (as do all the hue bulbs) these are not cheap in the slightest but the ability to swing the lights around for a living room carpet party in music mode is... Read More
Cons

Highlights
Quality

Yes hue is expensive but it’s an amazing product.
Very disappointing for such an expensive product.
Hue sync app works well on my pc.
Price
They do cost alot for what you get but hue is hue.
Competitiveness
I thought that they were too bright and the colours weren't mixing well between the 3 play bars.
As stated, they won’t in any way replace the main ceiling light, or even a corner uplighter or table lamp.
If you're wondering if this works with your philips ambilight tv, then yes, it does.

We have an ambilight tv which came with led’s all around the back of the screen which dynamically extends the colours of the image on the screen onto the wall behind the tv and really enhances whatever you are watching

I had some sticky led strips and tried those but they weren’t that bright and do not change colour synced to the screen

If you buy a single led bar known as an extension it does not come with a power supply this is not obvious from the description and philips do not sell individual power supplies

Next download the app for your pc or mac and run that at which point you should be able to dynamically sync the light bars to whatever is on your pc’s screen

Within the computer app is a setting to start when your pc starts without that it would have to be started every time you turn your computer on with that set it just starts from the word go when you power up your computer
