It’s router not rooter
That hole on your sock is huge 😀
btw. great video 🙂
Hi bro
I got some hues and I fucking love it
Great video as always. Keep up the amazing work.
good review..i went from philips hue to lifx 🙂
If Lifx only had similar features for syncing to your tv/pc. Does anyone know how to accomplish this ?
the fact that you haven’t mentioned the philips hue sync app is seriously annoying to me. It’s so immersive when i play a game with it on!
Isn’t it called a “Router” rather than a “Rooter” someone correct me if I am wrong?
I’m team LIFX. But if you want a *lot* of bulbs you are probably best off either getting Hue, or getting a professional router which permits more then 32 devices (most home routers will not support more, hence you get dropouts).
Yeelight baby 😉
4:54 Holy sock. Now my wife can stop complaining its just me! 😀
Oddly I use both, but I supply and install much more LIFX lights lamps and strips in customers houses than Philips Hue. Hue tends to be a hit with the younger audience (sub 40s) and Lifx generally has the older market.
Great video. You should check out linus’s video on these smart bulbs and check out the 3rd company he mentioned.
I have lifx at home, compared to Philips they’re a bit more expensive but imho the quality is better and you don’t need a bridge.
I’m team hue because of the hue sync feature and razer synapse and aura sync integration. This makes my experience even better. Also use it with ifttt to flash when my team is about to kick off and when they score. Pretty much perfect for me
Never FIRST but always here lol. OMG i never knew i could link Hue to Aura, great as ever bro.
I have the 60 dollar lifx and it’s amazing
Team LIFX!
Honestly I’ve been bouncing between the two of these for a little while and I’m thinking the Phillips hue is probably where I’m headed because of the Razer synapse implementation. It sounds like they have a bit more backing in the integration with other apps that I already use
I like everything WiFi, because it can all be hacked so easily.
what is the name of the tv stand you have,
Have been waiting on this notification for a while. Thanks for your advice!
#TeamHue
You prefer google home over Alexa? And why? Maybe a vid on that ?
This is a really great deep dive into our products. Anyone looking for advice on getting the best connectivity, our team at support.lifx.com can always help!
Looks pretty neat
Our favorite is Pc Cenetric.
team lifx i can paint the strips, no bridge, better app, and i dont know why but i think they are britter
Good video man
