There's a new alternative to the Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box 8K for immersive smart lighting synced to your TV — it's way cheaper, it still supports 4K 120Hz passthrough, it works with WiZ bulbs, and it comes from… Philips

A room lit in multiple colors from various Philips Smart Lighting products, with the TV lightstrip mirroring the on-screen colors.

• Philips' new TV light sync box uses WiZ rather than Hue
• Includes 4K 120Hz passthrough, so you don't lose use of a key TV port
• £129 to £149 including lightstrip; US launch TBC

Signify has launched a new Philips HDMI sync box, but it's not for the Philips Hue range: it's part of the Philips Smart Lighting range, and uses smart technology from WiZ instead.
