You got the Philips Hue pricing wrong by a mile. See below. also shame you didn't cover the Govee range

[@WarrilowJ]

before even watching this video I already know this is gonna be super helpful, been looking at these 2 brands specifically for my flat!

[@mattlm64]

LIFX bulbs certainly get bright enough and produce a vivid green.

[@SimonLeicester]

They've got the pricing wrong
That Philips Hue kit is nearer £209, not £135. Using the current prices on Amazon. They are using the latest Philip Hue 1100 lumen bulb so £54.99, Hue Sensor £34.99, Hue colour LED Strip £69.99. The Hue sensor also requires the Hue Hub to work so another £49.90
I make that nearer £209

He said £134 more expensive. Not total

Wouldn't touch Phillips hue with a barge pole. Way over expensive and so many better and cheaper options out there

[@martinbulmer6847]

Which ones?

You have to leave wifi router on...that's quite a disadvantage. Who leaves their wifi on when they're not using it?

[@ridedangerously]
