Philips Hue Lightstrip Plus for TV backlighting — a 65-inch RGB smart light strip with independent segment control and full color sync to on-screen content. Requires the Hue Sync Box (sold separately) to sync with TV, music, and gaming; app control via Hue app supports Alexa and Google Assistant (no HomeKit or Matter). Features vivid color scenes, music-reactive modes, and strong 3M adhesive. Premium pricing (~$314 after discount) reflects Philips' brand reputation and tight ecosystem integration rather than raw LED count. Best suited for high-end living rooms and gaming setups where sync-to-media matters more than budget.
