Philips Hue Festavia Review

Philips Hue’s Festavia Globe Outdoor String Lights feel like the logical evolution of the original Festavia line but with a much glossier, Lightguide-inspired twist. Yes, they’re pricey, and yes, rivals like Govee and Nanoleaf have similar options for considerably less, cash but the colour control, weatherproof build, and that signature Hue polish make these a standout option for anyone already deep in the Hue ecosystem.

A great set of string lights, available in three lengths, the Philips Hue Festavia String Lights do have a few modes for the festive season, although they’re not just for Christmas. With an indoor/outdoor power supply, these lights can be used all year round, creating a colourful run of colour that blends perfectly with any other Hue bulbs you might have, while being controllable via any Hue accessory. When you want to light a tree, the special scenes help bring some festive cheer, making these lights brilliant for those who want to use their investment all year around.
