The Hue Play HDMI sync box 8K adds premium surround lighting to your home theater by syncing your Hue smart lights with video games, movies, and music. Play, watch and listen with more excitement as your lights flash, dim and brighten with your screen. This sync box delivers real-time syncing with superior color accuracy. The effects are always in sync with your TV because the sync box receives data directly from the source before it reaches your screen, unlike devices that react to the screen itself. This gives you a premium ambient lighting experience with no delays or mismatched colors. Use the Hue app to personalize your settings, like brightness and speed of effects, or define a default setting. Control via the app, on-product control button, or by programming your TV remote with custom commands. Enhance your entertainment center with any combination of Hue color lights: Hue Play gradient light strips, light tubes, light bars, Hue bulbs and more. The Hue sync box 8K works only with Hue lights to ensure color consistency and the premium experience you expect from Hue. The Hue sync box 8K won't block your screen and is designed to fit discreetly on a shelf or cabinet near your TV and HDMI devices. The sync box stays out of the way so you can see the action on your screen with no distracting peripherals. Setting up surround lighting with the sync box is simple: 1) Download the free Hue app, 2) Connect your Hue lights and Bridge, 3) Connect up to 4 HDMI devices, 4) Follow the instructions to set up the sync box and start syncing. The Hue sync box 8K requires a Hue Bridge. Unlock the full power of Philips Hue smart home lighting with the Bridge and enjoy benefits like multi-room control, automations and smart control from anywhere in the world. Philips Hue is the smart lighting system that lights your home inside and out, all without straining your Wi-Fi.

Finally, with support for 4k@120, the next generation of Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box is here to delight owners of modern consoles/graphics cards in computers, and further enhance your home theatre with ease. Latency of color changes is acceptable in normal and intense mode, but I do wish this would share a power adapter with say, the play gradient strip or play light bars, as these power bricks in the Hue ecosystem are massive.

After waiting a very long time, my wife was thrilled to discover that Better Off Dead was finally released on Blu-ray, let alone a thoughtfully designed steelbook!

Expand your horizons and help create vacation homes for clients on all-new resort islands. Join Lottie's Paradise Planning team, and travel to a distant group of beautiful resort islands with a diverse set of landscapes. This time, you are in charge of inviting characters as clients and helping them live out their own dream vacations. Choose from a variety of islands with different terrain and climates, and find one that matches your client's vision. Then start designing, and start making their vacation dreams come true. Just wait until you see the look on your clients' faces after you reveal the vacation home decorated just for them. Add personalized touches to your client's resort island. Customize everything from home exteriors and interiors, the yard, and even customize the weather to either be sunny or rainy. Handpick the picture-book spot for your resort creation, and use the Paradise Planning team's expansive inventory to deck out vacation homes without being limited to your own inventory, recipes, or resources. The editing tools make decorating a snap. It's a breeze to go back and redecorate as you like, so change and rearrange to your heart's content. As you design more vacation homes for your clients, facilities like cafes and schools around the Paradise Planning office will open up. Decorate these into inviting locales, choose roles for different characters, then watch your clients spend time together. Why not stop by and check in to see how things are going in paradise? You can up your design game on your own island, too. Design options that you acquire while working as a Paradise Planning team member can be used on your island as they become available. Build partition walls and pillars, set the mood with lighting, and add soundscapes to your residents' homes, as well as your own. Share your masterpieces with friends. Take in-game photos of your designs, and add them to your portfolio. Show them to other characters, and you may get more requests to create vacation homes. Share the photos with other players using the in-game Showroom* in the Happy Home Network app, and they can tour your personally designed resort islands or go tour theirs for some relaxation and inspiration.

Desiring a more stable mount for my Logitech Brio webcam than atop a monitor on my standing desk, I opted to deploy it atop the Elgato Master Mount L. Mounting to my desk was very simple, and the flexibility of this mount is well beyond my requirements. My only wish is that the there were additional cable clips for each of the telescoping segments, but nothing a few cable tie straps can't handle.

I was skeptical of the performance claims of PCI Gen4 NVMe transfer rates, but pleasantly surprised with the noticeable gains in a few of my workflow as a software engineer working with dozens of containers/runtimes going off at once.

There's no way around the elephant in the room of the sheer cost of this piece of glass and aluminum, but as the first iOS-esque device I've ever owned, it is extremely impressive. Very responsive, amazing resolution and refresh rate for the form factor, and the pencil workflows are quite intuitive. My one complaint is with iPadOS itself, that it does not have a work profile like Android supports.

Picked up the Explore Air 2 cutting machine as a gift for my wife, and now our car is covered in homemade vinyl stickers! All things aside, as an avid technologist without much experience in this side of the maker/crafting space, setup was a breeze and the design tooling is intuitive enough for anyone to pick it up and start cutting.

Overall, I've been loving my Pixel 5. Coming from the Pixel 2 XL, the updates made to the camera software and Assistant integration are immediately noticeable.
While I wish Google had offered a flagship option with better specs, this little phone hits harder than I expected.
The battery life is beyond expectations. Having been used to being tethered to my charger, the Pixel 5 can last for days at a time before hitting battery saver with lighter use, and can coast through overnight from 90->45% with several hours of SOT, and always-on display.
My biggest gripe is the removal of the squeeze for assistant (active edge?)... far more intuitive to me than the swipe from corner gesture to activate the assistant.
Be the first to play new games like Starfield and Forza Motorsport on day one so you never miss a thing and enjoy hundreds of high-quality games like Minecraft Legends and more with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

As a patient gamer (waiting often times years for games to either go on sale, have a game of the year edition drop, or for the DLC/season pass roadmap to be completed), and someone with both an Xbox console and a capable PC, Xbox's Games Pass Ultimate is one of, if not the best values in gaming I can think of as a lifelong one at that. 100s of games available on both platforms, pioneering efforts in crossplay and backwards compatible releases, Microsoft is hitting it out of the park with the value of XGPU.
