Philips Hue is launching a stylish new smart light to ‘wash’ your walls with color – early Amazon listing reveals all

• Details of the Philips Hue Smart Wall Washer have appeared on Amazon
• It will work like the Philips Hue Play Light Bar, flooding your wall with color
• It uses the same ColorCast system as the Philips Hue Twilight lamp

Amazon has published a listing for an unreleased Philips Hue lamp that promises to flood your walls with color. The Philips Hue Play Smart Wall Washer, spotted by Hueblog.com, is currently listed on Amazon’s UK store, though there’s no release date or price available yet.

The Smart Wall Washer combines the best features from two of our favorite smart lights: the Philips Hue Play Light Bar and the Philips Hue Twilight.

Like the Light Bar, it can be synchronized with an HDMI source to project colored light onto the walls behind your TV, or be used by itself to help set the mood. If you have other Philips Hue lights, you’ll be able to group them together with the Smart Wall Washer and apply the same scene or automation to all of them.

Look at the back of the Smart Wall Washer and you’ll notice a setup very similar to the LED panel on the back of the Philips Hue Twilight. Like the Twilight, the Wall Washer features a system called ColorCast that uses “precisely-arranged LEDs” to create a striking, smooth color gradient on the nearest wall.
