Great lighting options, bright

Compared to the older model they give off different colors even when the same color is selected in the app. Their not as bright. The only positive side is they can use multiple colors at the same time. Not every good at white tho. Use these if they’re going to be colorful most of the time. The blues and greens and reds and purples all good color. The rest not so good.

I purchased about 2k worth of hue products for my entire house. Two long strip went out so I purchased a new set of “essential” 16ft strips. They do not compare to the original ones I purchased over 8 years afo

They set up instantaneously, were easy to install, paired with my hub quickly, and I love how the LED strip separates multiple colors for dynamic scenes.

I bought these lights and very little explanation on how to cut and reconnect the strip was provided. additionally, do not buy this product if you are hoping to use different lengths of the strip in different places. NOT WORTH THE MONEY
