If you’re from the USA, then I have good news for you. There’s a rare offer in the official online shop. You can currently buy the Philips Hue Festavia string lights with a 30 per cent discount. A perfect offer for the upcoming Christmas season, although the string lights can of course be used all year round.
With Epiphany, Christmas has finally said goodbye to us and the Christmas tree should also have gone bye-bye in your home by now. And if not, then it will probably be time in the next few days. But what happens to the Hue Festavia after that? The smart string lights from Philips Hue can cost more than 200 euros, depending on their length.
Here in Germany, Christmas is usually celebrated on 24 December: Christmas Eve. We go to church in the afternoon, during which time the Christ Child puts presents under the tree for the children and in the evening we eat something delicious with the family. What is your schedule for the Christmas holidays?
It’s actually quite simple with Philips Hue, there are three different types of light. Products classified as Hue White only have white LEDs with a fixed colour temperature. White Ambiance uses cool white and warm white LEDs to create different shades of white. With White and Color Ambiance, in addition to the white LEDs, there are also coloured RGB LEDs so that a total of 16 million colours can be mixed.
The Philips Hue Festavia is back. According to Philips Hue, the string lights, which was successfully launched last year, will now no longer only hang on the Christmas tree in the living room, but thanks to its outdoor suitability, it can now also be used all year round. The string lights can now be pre-ordered at philips-hue.com
After its brilliant appearance last year, the Philips Hue Festavia disappeared from the scene in the past nine months. Now the string lights are back in time for Christmas and bring along some new features, which I would like to present to you today in a short article. The biggest innovation apart from the increased prices: The Philips Hue Festavia is no longer only available with 250 LEDs distributed over 20 metres, but also with 500 LEDs over 40 metres and 100 LEDs over 8 metres.
Last year it was announced at the last minute and was sold out after a short time. We are talking about the Philips Hue Festavia, string lights for the Christmas tree. During the IFA, Philips Hue announced the return of the gadget as well as completely new possibilities. After there was only one model of the Philips Hue Festavia with 250 LEDs distributed over a length of 20 metres in 2022, you will have more choice in 2023.
Next week Philips Hue will introduce new products. The opportunity will also be taken to announce the return of the popular Festavia string lights, which will be available in stores as early as mid-September. But not only that: we also already know that, in addition to the familiar 20-metre-long string of lights, there will also be a model twice as long with 500 LEDs.
Last year, Philips Hue launched its first Festavia string lights at the last minute, with sales at the time limited to the company’s own online shop. This year, they have a little more time for preparations – and it will be exciting in more ways than one. We already clarified a few weeks ago that there will be three versions.
Just yesterday I was able to tell you that Philips Hue will launch its own smart home camera. This was leaked by Eric Rondolat, the CEO of the manufacturer Signify, during the announcement of the quarterly figures. However, as I know by now, Philips Hue’s new security system will not consist of just one camera.
