Philips Hue White and Color Ambiance Gradient PC LED Lightstrip for 24'' to 27'' Monitors Requires Hue Hub, Compatible with Alexa, HomeKit, and Google Assistant, Black (578294)

I had one of the older hue light strips someone gave me to, but decided to get this to put behind my music stuff on my desk (though behind a monitor would work great if the monitor is up towards a wall so the light can really reflect, my monitor isn’t close enough so it’d be a little dull). The older strip I have lines the underside of my desk, and is cool, but can’t do any gradients, so this is pretty slick. A bit pricey considering the length but you can customize it with 3 different colors (you can select 3 on the color wheel, but the gradient effect can make it seem like more, as it fills in the gaps between what you select, so if you have red and blue selected on one end, various violets and purples fill in between). You can also move around the distance between each of the 3 selected colors to get some really cool patterns; if you’ve ever messed with gradient colors on text in like a photo editor or something, same idea. It’s decently bright, and I think plenty bendy though I didn’t use the included shaper things, to bend around a monitor, but they seem like they’d work fine. All in all, I am happy with the results! The only real drawback I think is price compared to the length you get, but, hue stuff has been super reliable for me over the years so I’ve decided to stick with them and haven’t yet had a bad experience.

Great quality. Great stickers holds strong.

The Philips Hue Gradient PC LED Lightstrip has been a fantastic addition to my setup. The lights sync perfectly with my 27-inch monitor, and the length is ideal for full coverage, giving my set up a polished and immersive look. The brightness is excellent, and the colors are vibrant, creating a stunning ambiance that really enhances my workspace. Connectivity has been reliable as long as you have a stable internet connection, and I haven’t experienced any flickering. Everything functions smoothly, making it a great option for high-quality monitor lighting. It’s worth noting that this lightstrip is designed more for flat monitors, but I’ve been using it with a curved monitor without any major issues. While it might not fit as seamlessly as on a flat screen, it still works well and delivers the same impressive results. However, if you want to sync these lights with your monitor or control them through the app, you’ll need both the Philips Hue Bridge and the Philips Hue Sync Box. Once you have those, setup is straightforward, and the system runs flawlessly with plenty of customization options. The only reason I’m giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is because I accidentally broke one of the plugs after using it for a while, which was entirely my fault. Despite this, the light-strip has exceeded my expectations, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking to elevate their setup!

The perfect size for my 48-inch TV, combined with the Hue Sync app, provides an excellent experience for watching movies or playing video games.

There’s a little bit of delay but overall very good

My entire house is lighted by hues. I have the two sync boxes. One on my home theater and i bought this for my gaming tv which is a 42 inch LG C2 OLED. I do enjoy these lights and find it annoying to play without them on and synced to the PS5. I had to buy another device to enable 4k/120hz to use on my PS5. I had another non hue branded LED strip around prior and those had a more saturated colored. Bright and vibrant. And they were more accurate in color as each LED were able to change color to match the screen. The hues only have 6-7 zones of LEDs. On top of that, the hues only wrap around the top and both sides. The bottom is blank so I bought a pair of Hue play bars for the bottom. Set up is probably the easiest of any back lighting system as they provide a few plastic clamps stick on to the back of your monitor. Then you just clip on the LED strips and plug in the power. Build quality to these LED strips is fantastic. It wont break on you when installing. I deducted one star due to the price and cost to run this system. And removed another star mainly for the LED zones. I have no regrets in this purchase and would buy again. Also, newer LG and Samsung TVs allow you to purchase the sync box app instead of buying the sync box for a few hundred dollars.

First off great product and name brand. This review is regarding the clips that come with it for mounting. If you don’t read anything else I type here, the ABSOLUTELY most important detail you do NOT get in the tutorial instructions, is ORIENTATION OF THE POWER CONTROLLER MATTERS!! Trust me it will save you a lot of headache and popping the adhesive back off, because the rope does not fit properly if you place it on the other side. The box needs to be placed somewhere on the right side of the monitor if facing the rear of it. Secondly, just because it comes with like 5 clips (two are 90° bends), you most likely will not need or even want to use them all. I didn’t use a 90 on the monitor shown in the pic. I used one on the other monitor (mistakes were made, cursing and removing clips etc) but I got it looking good. Everyone’s situation will differ depending on your lighting needs. Also, I have dual 32” and this cord is basically perfect. It states 24 through 27” monitors, but you can safely ignore that. Best of luck my friends.

This is not a good product and is certainly not worth the money. The product falls off constantly and does not stick to anything. It does not bend well and the provided adhesive brackets are not sufficient to keep the strip in place. Additionally, the product has a 4 pin plug. The pins get bent easily and the light strip no longer connects. This is made worse by the constant re-installing of the product as it falls off and must he constantly reconfigured for new locations. The whole Philips system is expensive. I would expect much better quality given the price tag.

Super

C’est un peu cher, mais elles sont de qualité et ça rend ton set top magnifique

It can be a bit steep to invest in the whole hue ecosystem. Already had the tv version, but the PC version did not disappoint. Kinda wished it was back on stock to be honest. It creates great immersion especially when watching movies and games!!! Although, for streaming sites, you would need to disable hardware acceleration which can be a bit cumbersome. Still, the setup was really easy and surprised that it also worked for ultrawide monitors.
