    Elevate your entertainment experience with new Philips Hue Play lamps


    Philips Hue is introducing two new entertainment lighting products: the Philips Hue Play table lamp and the Philips Hue Play floor lamp large.

     

    Designed to make Hue Entertainment more accessible, the new Play lamps help extend lighting effects beyond the TV screen, making viewing, gaming and music more immersive.

     

    Whether positioned next to a TV, beside a sofa or elsewhere in the room, the lamps deliver dynamic lighting effects that synchronize with movies, games and music. Available in multiple form factors and designed for flexible placement, the new additions make it even easier to create synchronized lighting experiences throughout the home.

     

    The lamps work seamlessly with the Philips Hue ecosystem and can be paired with the Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box or the Philips Hue Sync TV and PC apps to create lighting effects that move in sync with on-screen content and music.

    Enhanced everyday lighting with next-generation candle bulbs


    Updated candle bulbs feature full-spectrum daylight technology, delivering a broad color temperature range that closely mimics natural daylight throughout the day. Users can enjoy everything from warm candlelight-inspired tones for relaxing evenings to bright daylight settings for brighter moments.

     

    The next-generation Philips Hue candle bulb is 40% more energy efficient than its predecessor and now supports Matter for seamless connectivity with other smart home devices.1

     

    Designed for decorative fixtures, chandeliers and wall sconces, the updated candle bulbs combine elegant design with the latest Philips Hue smart lighting innovations.
