Great Product, Horrible App
on October 14, 2021
Posted by: mediocreTech
Verified Purchase:Yes
Now that I have these bulbs set up and my scenes set, they work wonderfully. Thread makes them super quick to respond. It took days, however, of fiddling with the Nanoleaf app to get my set up just the way I wanted. The app is terrible and buggy. I use the Eve for HomeKit app, the native Home app, or my voice with the HomePod to control these lights; I only open the Nanoleaf app when I absolutely need to, which is rarely the case now that I have all the scenes I require set up.

I’ve had zero problems with this cable. It’s solid and seems to be of good quality. I use it to connect my Apple TV 4K to my LG 4K UHD TV. Works like it should.

Works For Me, After An Initial Struggle
on October 14, 2021
Posted by: mediocreTech
Verified Purchase:Yes
A solid light strip. The Thread network is quick and seamless, the scenes are very cool (with the Nanoleaf bulbs especially). The app is a nightmare to figure out, but once you mess with it a while, if your tech savvy enough you can get things set up to work just how you need. Once I had all the scenes I wanted to create (or download) in the Nanoleaf app, I began to use the Eve for HomeKit app in it’s place, or the native Home app. This saves me having to delete the random scenes that the Nanoleaf app insists on creating or altering when I open it.
The light strip itself is not as heavy duty as say, the kasa light strip I had before. And while the white light is almost blinding, the colored lights are rather dim.
In summary, I’d say I’m pleased with this light strip now, though I was very frustrated when setting it up with Nanoleaf’s terrible app.

Works Seamlessly with Apple TV 4K
on October 14, 2021
Posted by: mediocreTech
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love my HomePod. With my Apple TV 4K, it’s both my sound bar and a smart speaker. I think the sound quality is great, especially compared to my old 3rd generation Echo, but I’m no audio expert.

Solid Product

Verified Purchase:Yes
I’m already in the apple ecosystem, so replacing my 4K fire stick with this seemed like the next logical step, and I’m so glad I did. Easy set up, smooth operation, excellent quality. Highly recommend to anyone who already has apple products. Pricey, but in the end, worth it.

Solid Mount
on September 7, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
This mount could probably hold the average human’s body weight. That’s how sturdy it is. Go with this, ignore the overpriced options. Set up isn’t too difficult, but I would recommend two people be involved.

My old TV was a 13 inch Insignia from 2009; as you can imagine, I was in awe once I set this TV up. I’m no expert on TV’s, but this has all the features I wanted and more. I’m happy with my purchase.
