Just in time for the holiday season Philips Hue is introducing a new smart lighting product sure to brighten your spirit: the Philips Hue Festavia string lights.

The Festavia string lights feature 250 mini smart LEDs along a 20-meter cord, making it perfect to decorate your interior for the holidays and special occasions. No more crawling under the Christmas tree to turn the lights on and off. Users can dim and brighten the lights, change color, turn them on and off, set timers and schedules, and more in the Hue app. They also have new features including the Scattered style and the Sparkle effect that creates a festive ambiance.

The Philips Hue Festavia string lights offers plenty of flexibility to decorate your Christmas tree, staircase, or any area in your home. As with all Hue products, the Festavia string lights work in harmony with other Philips Hue lights in the space. They can also be synced with music using the Spotify and Samsung SmartThings integration, allowing the lights to flash, dim, and brighten along with your favorite song or playlist.  Signify‘s new launch will light up users’ homes and create a cozy ambiance inside for the holidays and special occasions.

Along with the Festavia string lights, new features are available in the Hue app. The new Sparkle effect makes each light on the string twinkle, creating an extra festive look. For a cozier setting users can of course choose the existing Candle or Fireplace effect. While the existing Linear style produces a seamless gradient of color from one end of the string to the other, the Scattered style spreads up to five colors randomly along the string for a colorful, festive experience.

“As the world leader in smart lighting, we are constantly innovating to expand the ways users can experience lighting in their homes. We are very proud to present our new smart string lights, an innovation that a lot of users from all over the world have been waiting for. With Philips Hue Festavia string lights, anyone can create a personal lighting experience during the festive season. Homes will light up like never before,” said Jasper Vervoort, Business Leader Philips Hue at Signify.
