Philips Hue Ceiling Lights for your Living Room
We have rounded up, review and take a look at the different Hue ceiling lights currently on the market, the clever design and how they can be used.

As ceiling pendant lights go this is s stylish design that will give you all the colors you may want, the Hue Beyond ceiling light is dimmable and also allows you to select from the full spectrum of colors and not just white like the other ceiling lamps.
The Philips Hue Beyond has two independent light sources which means you have a uplight that can be one color, and the main downlight lamp which can be another. This is great for creating different mood lighting while ensuring you can still see by having the downlight for example to be brighter and whiter perhaps, or you can set them to whatever you want.
This ceiling light is great, looks stylish, ideal for your kitchen and can be set in different colors while not having just one bulb, but two giving it even more flexibility and creating even better lighting effects.

The Hue Phoenix is a little more basic in terms of style and design, it is white as opposed to metal like then other lights. This model can be wall mounted as well as ceiling mounted. So if you want a wall light or wish to replace one you already have then this would work well.

Can you compare the brightness of these lights? I would like to know the Lumens rating if possible. Is the beyond pendant light brighter than the flourish?
Marc
Hi how many lumens do each of these lights put out? That’s a critical factor in lighting design, yet surprisingly hard to find. thanks.
