A new partnership is in town! Samsung’s SmartThings and Philips Hue are shaking hands to introduce a bundle of exclusive updates and more.
This new collaboration will add an extra layer of upgrades to elevate home automation and enhance control of light sync. It will result in greater control of the Philips Hue Sync TV App through SmartThings.
At CES 2024, SmartThings already introduced new features that will surely make the TV the hotspot for smart homes. Philips Hue, through this collaboration, allows users to control their light sync application directly from the SmartThings application effortlessly as well as flawlessly.
The Philips Hue Sync TV App will permit the sync of lights along with what is on the TV. This leads to enhanced experiences such as watching movies and shows or playing games. Since Philips and SmartThings are at the same stage, that’s why one can easily control the Hue Sync application from the phone with the SmartThings app. Apart from this, it will also permit you to adjust the light brightness, switch between modes, or start or stop the light sync without even any interruption.
Now SmartThing is setting up to expand the availability of the Philips Hue Sync TV application to more regions, which includes:
- Brazil
- Hong Kong
- Poland
- Czech Republic
- Slovakia
The true reason behind this collaboration with SmartThings is just to expand the availability of smart home technology to more regions around the world.
Noticeably, Philips Hue also introduces a monthly subscription option for the Philips Hue Sync TV App, which costs 2.99 USD/EUR. Also, users who prefer a non-recurring plan can go with the existing one-time purchase option, which remains available at 129.99 USD/EUR. Someone who purchases a new 2024 Samsung TV will seamlessly use the Philips Hue Sync app to control their lights in sync with what’s on screen.
