Customers say
Customers appreciate the string lights’ color options and brightness. They find the colors decent and the lights look nice. However, some customers have issues with the adhesive quality, saying the tape is not very sticky and comes off easily. There are also complaints about functionality issues like app props not working or bent prongs. Opinions differ on how easy it is to set up the lights.

Great strip lights
Lights are very bright and have lots of color choices. I have lots of WIZ lights throughout our house. The app is pretty easy to set up. And controlling times thru the app is great.

Love these smart strip lights
I love these smart strip lights by Phillips. The Wiz app is easy to use and has so many options. The lights can be set for shades of white, tons of colors, and several dynamic options like Party mode, fireplace, candlelight, Christmas, Halloween, or one of my favorites in the kitchen a progressive wake-up mode where the lights slowly get brighter over the course of 30 minutes. I have these strip lights above my kitchen cabinets. They were easy to install, I just dropped the plug behind the refrigerator and plugged in.

Awful adhesion
Recently got new cabinets installed, wanted to add some underlighting as before it could be difficult to get proper light when cooking, especially prep. I had previously bought some Wiz by Phillips bulbs for my living room lights. Wiz/Phillips still has the best in terms of colors & cool/warm white lights. Especially compared to govee light strips. Their cool/warm white is an absolute joke, but colors are decent and price is pretty solid, but I digress.The adhesion of these Wiz strips are god awful. Maybe it was because they are new cabinets and the underside is a little slick, but they wouldn’t stay for crap. Ended up using some electrical tape and taping over the parts where you can cut it. It’s a temporary fix, until I can find something better.As far as pairing goes, it was a little bit of a pain. Especially because it tells you turn the lights on and off 3-5 times fast, but with the button on and off they fade in and out. Only after I completely unplugged power and restarted the process did it work.Adhesion: 0/10Light spectrum/colors: 9/10Ease of install: 5/10Wish they came with some adhesive clips or something. Corners are also very tricky.

Wizzy Wiz Wizz Wizz Lighting – I love these and integrate with my HomeAssistant
These lights and the modern Wiz counterpart (at least up to 2023) has been nothing but impressive. Integrates with HomeAssistant, and makes lighting the house so much more managable!

Very difficult to pair or even set up
New app is glitchy, it will not find new light strips and lost old connection. App props do not work and troubleshooting is not relevant. Cannot connect to new or old light. Last setup on old light was very difficult too. Would not recommend any WIZ product.

Great for the price!
These lights are only in soft white, which is what I need. They set a chill ambiance to my room!

Nice but app + stick power issues
I already had Wiz bulb lights and knew about the upgrade to the Wiz 2.0 app. However I was not able to connect these strip lights or manually put them in pair mode. I was having an issue where the “device” (lights) would be recognized but the app wouldn’t respond to me tapping that notice to pair. After a day of chatting with support and uninstalling, reinstalling, power cycling phone, etc. they determined I had to use the Wiz original app to pair the strip lights. This meant I had to uninstall V2 as otherwise they conflict and the V1 just crashes. So I did that, paired successfully, then re-downloaded V2 and it transferred over. It seems someone forgot to build in support for strip lights to the V2 app 😑.Aside from that the lights look very nice, bright, and good quality, however as others have mentioned the sticking power is pretty weak. I may end up using a hot glue gun to permanently affix mine where I want them.Also if you have something with bends/corners look into the adapters that will allow you to cut, connect, and make clean, flat turns. I had to do a lot of bending with mine but they are not super flexible which has also contributed to why mine aren’t sticking well since the corners essentially don’t have the sticky part touching my item at all.
