Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box 8K

The Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box 8K is a great gadget for syncing your Hue lights with the colors displayed on your TV while watching movies or playing video games. It’s currently steeply discounted to a more accessible price: $269.49 through the Philips Hue store, which is $115 off the typical price at most other retailers (e.g., Best Buy, B&H Photo). This discount is part of the company’s “Bright Days” sale, which includes reductions on many other Hue products.

Where to Buy

• Regular price: $384.99
• Sale price: $269.49 at the Philips Hue store

Technical Details

• HDMI hub that accepts up to four devices (gaming consoles, PC, streaming devices, etc.)
• Supports up to 8K passthrough at 60 Hz or 4K at 120 Hz
• Passthrough support for HDR10 Plus, Dolby Vision HDR, and immersive Dolby Atmos audio

Bridge Requirement

The Sync Box requires at least Philips Hue’s entry‑level Bridge to communicate with other Hue lights (including the gradient light strips that sit behind your TV). If you don’t already have a Bridge, the basic model costs about $65. A discounted bundle on the Philips Hue site offers both the Sync Box and Bridge for $301.93, effectively halving the cost of the Bridge.
