Philips Hue Play Light Bar 2-Pack, 13.2W LED, Black, 915005733901

Very good quality. Can't say a word.

works as advertised

It’s great lights

Box was not plastic sealed, the lights showed wear on the back so did the power brick.

wayyy too over priced

Its great if you use it with Philips sync box

I loved it . You only have to remember that both the lights connect with the same adapter . So if you are thinking to place the light far from each other then it’s going to be a problem . Syncing with tv will need hdmi sync box .

I was between this product and GROVE LED Lights, what made me purchase this product was the lights would have a higher maximum brightness and were supposed to be higher quality. Also I have a positive relationship with Philips brand over a variety of products, this was my first LED Light purchase.The lights come with a versatile and easy to use mounting system supported by 3M tape and allen key adjustment for the bases, you can arrange them in a variety of ways. The lights can be controlled via the Philips HUE app, and require a bridge to connect via ethernet to your internet router, the source of the app and the bridge connection must be on the same network in order for it to work. Other LED smart systems do not use wifi. Philips HUE offers a lot of connections up to like 72 lights per bridge.App is super easy to use when you have set it up, you can do a lot of stuff with it and anyone interested should seek out youtube videos showing the full features of the lights, after about 4 weeks with the lights I'm really happy with the purchase, I have the lights mounted on the back of my monitor. They come with great preset options for work, play, general browsing and different times of the day and settings, some of the color schemes you can get out of the bars are really great, the lights are also strong enough to provide solid lighting that you can really feel and benefit/enjoy during daytime. I only have the two LED Bars, but I am definitely considering purchasing more HUE products and specifically a third light bar.I do not think that this product is the best value for money available, especially because the bridge is not included in this kit and retails for $60. I was lucky I found the bridge on sale for around $25, which tipped the decision for me to purchase this product over others, if you're considering more budget options, you can definitely look at other products for similar performance, if you dont mind paying more, HUE has some cool beneifts.Be aware, cable management required!

When creating a review for this, there's a metric offered of "value for money" I am inclined to just avoid that metric, because you're buying a philips hue product: you know that this isn't cheap. By no means is it a Nanoleaf product, but Philips Hue isn't cheap. What you get in turn though is a highly integrated ecosystem that utilizes a Zigbee backhaul to make sure that it can communicate to the devices even absent a WiFi network (assuming you can send the commands, like from other Zigbee devices), solid quality control, and HomeKit integrations.Its not to say that they're necessarily a perfect product for you: Until the Ambient they didn't offer individually addressable LED's, and even that I'm pretty sure is zone based.As for the Playbar's specifically? I love them: They're great, but they still have a few downsides. This kit isn't cheap (at time of writing, around $70-80 per bar), but doesn't give you the Bridge (which is mandatory for these; no bluetooth mode). You likely have a bridge already if you're looking at investing, so that does help. The lights do not have a built in battery, and personally what I found most disappointing is the lack of adjustability for their physical stands. You have a few mounting options, but they're all fixed mounts: they don't allow you to tilt or adjust them. You decide a particular orientation and you're stuck with it unless you disassemble their mounts, which considering you're using 3M pads isn't really ideal. If you're wanting to do a set-and-forget layout it is fine, but be aware it's not like you can tilt them or anything.The plug that comes with these lights supports up to three lights being plugged into it: so if you get a third play bar, you can just plug it into the same plug. Alternatively (and what is neat to me): If you get the Philips Hue Sync, you can also plug it into this 3rd port: it utilizes the same style. I think that's a relatively clever idea to minimize socket use, especially because its quite likely that you are going to be utilizing play bars with the Sync. The trade off, of course, is that a lot of people run three or more playbars for a sync - one to the left, one to the right, and one on top. If you have an orientation like that, the third plug point is going to be taken up by default.All in all though, I recommend these: They're bright. They're easily controlled via all major assistants, and there is some absolutely *great* Zigbee accessories that can be utilized. Outside of Philips Hue range itself, I really love the Lutreon Caseta control, and recommend people look into something like that to make your space more accessible to the folk in your life who are less tech-y.

Son geniales. Valen cada centavo.
