I recall a deal around the same time I think for a pack for $100 at Best Buy with a $50 GC. I bought two packs

I'm waiting for Philips to release a damn hue sync that is hdmi 2.1 for all the latest specs

I don't have a time machine, but almost two years ago exactly I bought this set from Costco for $100 after their discount. Was marked as $150 normal price then. Now 2 years later, for the same product, it is saying these are $170 normal price and $130 after the discount. meh

No (imo) but they're much cheaper. Here's a video that shows both on screen at the same time.

Are these bars better than the strips for a TV setup?
Yes, the strips are a nightmare, at least for me. Turning corners plus they come loose after a while and you have to buy double side tape to put them back up. These bars do not give you the even light around the TV like the strips but they still look good. My 2 cents

I have these. Been using a while. Not all that. If I knew now what I knew when I purchased them, I probably wouldn't have purchased them. They work and work well, just not really anything special. Not worth the $$$.

I'll invest in Hue once they get rid of that absurdly priced sync box. I'm aware of the PC app , but that doesnt help with TV

There are many workarounds available.


I.e.
1. Stream your PC to your TV and use the provider's app
2. Connect your PC directly to your TV and use it that way
3. Use Remote Play for consoles

If going this route, why not just buy Govee?

Seems like it would be the same price or maybe even more once you get everything?

Serious question,… not just trolling… I have lots of projects that I use LED lights with and haven't gone this route just because it seems overly complicated. But perhaps I'm missing something.
Quote from random2000 View quoted comment :
If $$ is the only thing that is important, yes Govee wins out. Hue is a bit cleaner and the interface is unmatched but they are expensive.

Is it worth the price? probably not but it is damn easy if you are in the ecosystem. It's kinda like sonos. worth it? debatable but damn easy to setup and use.
Heeeelll no. Don't give in to that cheap, off-brand garbage. Uses an intrusive foreign app and is a constantly promoted product on here that had very sketchy beginnings. It's paid promotion and is very cheaply made. There is no comparison to authentic Hue.

Quote from sergeantholmes View quoted comment :
I had the Govee TV Lights and finally upgraded to the Hue Sync Box and gradient light strip and Playbars. Needless to say, the Govee is absolute trash in comparison IMO. You get what you pay for….

THIS.

I frequently watch of videos of live music and concerts via YouTube. In a dark room it really does submerse you in the lighting and atmosphere of the performance. I don't really like to watch regular TV with it. Sports aren't great. Certain movies shine but for me personally, the sweet spot is live music performances.
