Just in time for the holidays, new Philips Hue Festavia string lights offer a smart decoration experience thanks to the companion app.
Philips Hue Festavia includes 250 mini smart LEDs attached to a 20-meter cord, over 65 feet. People can dim and brighten the lights, change their color, turn them on and off, set timers and schedules, and more using the Hue app.
People can also add several colors to the string of lights for a gradient effect. A new style called Scattered also spreads up to five colors randomly along the string.
The lights can be synced with music using integration with Spotify and Samsung's SmartThings app.
Philips Hue Festavia lights include a new Sparkle effect to make them twinkle on a Christmas tree or other household area, or people can choose the existing Candle or Fireplace effects for a cozier atmosphere. And a new style called Scattered spreads up to five colors randomly along the string.
Pricing & Availability
Philips Hue Festavia string lights will be available on November 15 exclusively on philips-hue.com for $159.99.

We have been using Twinklys year-round in/out without any issues. They are HK compatible or solo and come with a great App and lots of program options.
Phillips Hue site via the article link, has no info or reference to Philips Hue Festavia string lights. That’s odd.
twinkly.com. An Italian company. These are great year-round lights with very cool App, great support, and the longest lastingoutside lights we have owned. Thet can be pricey but last week Target had 50% off and the wife went crazy buying mire sets
