Great emersion. Works awesomely. Highly controllable.

Synapse syncs with pc while playing music or movies. Creates an immersive viewing experience. Works well when synced with gaming too!



Cons

Please do yourself a favour and spend your hard earned money elsewhere on some other alternative. It’s a shame, wasteful. Such a rip.

This is a xmas gift and so im unable to check for internal damage. Philips sells this things very pricey but won't give you the quality you expect. Probably only suited to backlight a computer monitor.
