With Hue Flux, Philips Hue has added a new light strip to its portfolio that can be customised. Accessories such as corner connectors and flexible connectors have been available for purchase since last week. But what about the Hue OmniGlow Lightstrip, the new premium product from Philips Hue? Officially, this special light strip can only be separated at the designated markings every 12.5 centimetres.

5 metres between power supply and controller

The long-awaited accessories for the Hue Flux light strip have finally been available for a few days now in Europe. You’ve been waiting especially for the corner connectors and flexible connectors. These are, of course, only compatible with the Hue Flux Lightstrip and the Hue Flux Ultra Bright. But what about the five-metre extension cable?

Hue OmniGlow: Almost 10 metres of light in my stairwell Has he gone completely mad?

Has he gone completely mad?

A few weeks ago, I didn’t think twice about ordering a Philips Hue OmniGlow light strip at my own expense. Not 3 metres, not 5 metres. In the end, I got 10 metres for €349.99. And I had no idea where to put this long and, above all, expensive light strip.

Distance to the controller remains unchanged

Philips Hue is launching a whole range of new light strips this fall. The Hue Flux Lightstrip, its ultra-bright sibling, and the magnificent Hue Omniglow Lightstrip are already available. In December, two more light strips from the Hue Essential series will be added, which we still need to take a closer look at.

Hue OmniGlow Lightstrip: Where can the light strip be shortened? Markings are well hidden

Markings are well hidden

Last week, the Philips Hue OmniGlow Lightstrip was launched in Europe. It is available in lengths of 3, 5, and 10 meters. The new premium light strip is also already on sale in the US, but so far only in the shortest version. One question has kept cropping up over the last few days: where can the Hue OmniGlow Lightstrip be shortened?

The best light strip yet

After its early launch in the US, the Philips Hue OmniGlow Lightstrip is now also available in Germany and other European countries. After my first test, I can say quite clearly that it is by far the best light strip that Philips Hue has built to date. This thing is amazing; even the competition from Govee looks old in comparison.

Philips Hue light strips can switch off individual segments New mode already active in effects

New mode already active in effects

When comparing Philips Hue light strips with those from other manufacturers, such as Govee, people often ask whether individual segments of a Philips Hue Gradient Lightstrip can also be switched off. Until now, this has not been possible, but now it seems that this is about to change. At least, that’s what I noticed after installing the Hue Neon Gradient Outdoor Lightstrip, which will be released in November.

Philips Hue vs. Govee: Who has the better premium light strip? Hue OmniGlow vs. Strip Light Pro

Hue OmniGlow vs. Strip Light Pro

This discussion has already heated up tempers in the past: Philips Hue or Govee, which one is better? In my opinion, this is a difficult comparison to make, as the product portfolios of the two manufacturers alone differ massively. The technical basis used could not be more different either. Now I’m pitting two comparable products against each other in a direct duel: the new Hue OmniGlow Lightstrip and the Govee COB Strip Light Pro.

The new premium light strip and its predecessor

In the USA, the new Hue OmniGlow Lightstrip is already available in one of three different lengths, and it is set to launch here in Europe in November. The new light strip is intended to replace the previous premium product, the Hue Ambiance Gradient Lightstrip. But how exactly do the two light strips differ from each other?

The new top model

Unfortunately, most of the new light strips are not expected to be released in the US until next year, with the exception of the top model: the Hue OmniGlow Lightstrip will be launched worldwide in November. And it seems that things are moving even faster in the US, where the three-meter version of the light strip is already listed as available.
