Signify has rolled out a significant wave of new products under the Philips Smart Lighting banner, expanding its WiZ-based ecosystem with five distinct additions spanning ambient lighting, LED strips, a new table lamp, and a physical control switch.
The launch sits outside the Philips Hue umbrella, with Philips Smart Lighting operating on the WiZ platform and app rather than Hue’s bridge-dependent infrastructure, a distinction that reflects the brand’s push toward more accessible, Wi-Fi-connected smart lighting at lower price points than its flagship range.
The headline addition is the HDMI Sync Box 2.1, a device that synchronises connected smart lights with content playing through HDMI sources in real time, extending the visual output of films, games, and television across the wider room rather than confining it to the screen.
Philips will only sell the Sync Box 2.1 as part of a bundled kit that includes a matching TV backlight strip, with two configurations covering 55- to 65-inch televisions at £129.99 and 75- to 85-inch televisions at £149.99, both launching from June 2026, with regional timing subject to slight variation.
Alongside the sync box, the LED strip range expands with new Gradient Floor Lamps, Light Bars, and RGB, RGBIC and Neon strip variants available in lengths from three metres to 20 metres depending on region, with UK pricing running from £23.99 to £79.90 across configurations.
The Squire Lite Table Lamp rounds out the ambient hardware additions as a compact unit built around soft wall-washing effects for smaller spaces, launching in black and white at £34.99 across the UK and Europe from June 2026.
Gradient Bars and Floor Lights, priced between £59.99 and £84.99 depending on the model, complete the ambient hardware additions and extend the multi-colour lighting across walls and furniture, in the same vein as the existing Hue Gradient range, at a lower cost of entry.
Rounding out the launch is the Smart Dial Switch, a physical controller priced at £24.99 that adjusts brightness, colours, and scenes through tap and rotation inputs as an alternative to app-based control, with availability confirmed from June 2026.
