Exciting developments are on the horizon for Philips Hue enthusiasts as rumors suggest a new COB strip light might be in the works. This innovative addition is anticipated to outshine its predecessor, the Hue Ambiance Gradient Lightstrip, known for its vibrant illumination.
Reports indicate that the new Philips Hue strip light will incorporate Chip on Board (COB) technology, enhancing the lighting experience significantly. By integrating LEDs directly into the circuit board, these lights are expected to minimize the gaps between individual sources, ensuring a seamless and smoother glow. This could lead to not only a cleaner appearance but also potentially higher brightness levels and an extended lifespan.
For context, the current Hue Ambiance Gradient Lightstrip achieves up to 1,800 lumens at 4,000K and 1,600 lumens at 2,700K, with a longevity of about 25,000 hours. While the company has not yet made any official announcements regarding this new product, it holds promise as a competitor to existing market options like the Govee COB Strip Light Pro.
As anticipation builds, tech enthusiasts eagerly await any confirmation from Philips Hue’s parent company, Signify, regarding the release and pricing of this exciting new offering. With no official launch date in sight, the potential impact on the smart lighting market is already generating buzz.
