Nanoleaf Elements Wood Look Smart Wall Lights, Hexagon LED Wall Lights work with Alexa Google Assistant, Home Wall Decor for Living Room with Music Sync, Touch Control, Ambient White 1500-4000K, 13 PK

I recently added these Nanoleaf Wood Look Hexagon Panels (an expansion pack to my starter kit) to finish up a design I’ve been working on, and I have to say—they’re an absolute game changer for my small condo and living room.Let’s start with the design: these panels are sleek, modern, and add such a warm and cozy mood to the space. The wood finish blends perfectly with my decor and makes the room feel both high-tech and organic. The fact that you can adjust the lighting scenes with the Nanoleaf app or through Apple HomeKit is just chef’s kiss. Whether I’m in work mode or just relaxing, the customization options make it easy to set the perfect vibe.One feature I especially love is the touch programming. Being able to control smart devices in my home with just a touch on one of the panels feels so futuristic. Plus, when I’m in my “creative zone” for work, these panels are like a visual anchor—I’ll just sit there, stare at them, and let the ideas flow.The only downside is the price—it’s definitely not cheap. If it were more affordable, I’d cover an entire wall with these panels without hesitation. That said, they’re worth the investment if you’re looking for something that combines function, design, and a whole lot of personality.If you’re on the fence, I’d say go for it. These panels have added so much to my space, and I can’t imagine my living room without them now. Highly recommend!

These are a brilliant invention (forgive the pun). They look good on a wall with or without the lights switched on. You don't get colors with these hexagons, rather shades of white, from golden ember glows to bright whites. You can set them up from your iPhone with steady light, or waves of flickering whites, changing shades or intensity that wash gently across your pattern.They take a bit of setting up. Nanoleaf recommends setting them up temporarily first, such as on a table. It's tricky to measure the dimensions to fit the wall where you want them: hexagons have their own dimensions, rather than squares which easily conform to width and height, so check and double check! But once you take the trouble to get it right, and set them up correctly with the connectors provided, it goes well when you apply them to your wall with the self-stickies on the back.I particularly like that I can abandon the iPhone and use a touch controller which they provide for you to place where you wish. You can select different lighting patterns and brightness from this control.I think the basic set doesn't quite offer enough hexagons to make a satisfying pattern; they provide extender sets of three hexagons, and I bought two extensions to go with mine, giving me six extra to achieve the 'look' I wanted. Glad I did, but I wish they weren't so expensive.The cost can seem prohibitive, but remember this is art work that can stay with you for the rest of your life and, in theory, you can even change the pattern after a few years, or when you move home. (They adhere firmly, so you may have to patch up the surface beneath them if you move them.)To sum up, these are not for flashy 'disco-like' color changers, more for those who like subtle changes in whites that wash across your pattern. Or let them hold steady with a warm glow. They'll certainly be a focus of conversation and a comfort on dark winter nights.

The final result was great, but man were these things a nightmare to put up. Some years back, I bought the Nanoleaf triangle light panels and had a love/hate relationship with them. I loved them when they worked, however the sticky adhesive that came with them ripped the paint off my walls, so I quickly learned to use regular command strips instead of whatever came in the package. They also did a huge relaunch of the app a few months after I purchased the panels, and they never connected the same way again. I ended up just getting to a point where I kept it on my fave color/light pattern and my fave brightness setting and never bothered using the app any more. I held off for a while but finally figured if I had to do the same thing with these elements hexagon panels, it would still be worth it for the vibe I wanted to create in my apartment.Turns out setting these up were just as much of a struggle as the other panels... but in my opinion, they are worth it for the end result. This time I didn't even try with the adhesive included in the package -- my first piece of advice is to get a bunch of those big velcro command strips as they're much easier to remove if needed. There's a circular panel in the middle of the hexagons that rotates, and I highly recommend attaching the command strips there. The rotating circle panel makes it easier to adjust once it's on the wall, which is nice. However the rotating panel can be annoying if you're trying to make sure everything is perfectly level, as it keeps rotating while you try to connect other panels. So be ready to fight a bit with that, lol.My second piece of advice is to lay out your design pattern on the floor first, and also figure out where to put the connector pieces so that you have enough. They give you the bare minimum in the starter pack, so be ready for that. At first I really wanted a connector for every spot so the panels would stick together better, however that was impossible for the design I wanted to create and the amount of panels I had.My biggest piece of advice is to make sure you have all the connector pieces already attached when you put a new panel on the wall. The connectors are practically impossible to add to a panel once it's stuck to the wall -- they snap into place pretty firmly but if you try to attach more while it's on the wall, they have a tendency to fall off very easily. Also extremely frustrating, so make sure to snap the connectors into place BEFORE putting them on the wall. You can also disconnect the panel from the little rotating circle in the center, which was helpful when I realized the connectors would keep falling off unless I snapped them into place before putting them on the wall. I had to pull all the panels off, attach connectors, then push them back onto the little rotating circle panel that was still stuck to the wall.If you get more than one starter box like I did (I got 2 so that I would have 14 panels total), make sure the number of the power adapter matches the number on the slip of paper with the QR code to connect the panels to the app, and that it also matches the number on the little control panel piece. I didn't realize the app would only connect if I used the same power adapter AND the control panel AND the QR code I scanned. You would think the power adapter wouldn't matter but apparently it does.Final piece of advice is to be ready for frustration with the app. Thankfully they upgraded the panels a bit so you can use the Apple Home app to turn them off and on and adjust the brightness. But in order to adjust the colors and patterns and create custom "scenes," you'll have to use to Nanoleaf app. I've had it connected for about 4 days now and so far it hasn't disconnected yet, but after my previous experience with my triangle panels I know that probably won't last for long. My advice is that once you have things connected, find or create a few scenes you like and "favorite" them. That way even if it disconnects from the app, you can still use the little arrow button on the panels themselves to cycle through your different scene options and just leave it set to the one you like the best. It can be confusing when you're creating or editing the scenes too, every time you make any tiny adjustment it wants you to rename the whole scene and save it as a separate one. So be ready to do a lot of editing and playing around with that.For how expensive these are, it's pretty frustrating how difficult it can be to install them and get them connected. But overall I really love the way they look, and they match the aesthetic of my apartment really well. I think they're worth it, but just know you will probably struggle for hours when first putting them up.

Love these. They're so ambient. Honestly the visualizer effect was unexpected, but I quickly fell in love realizing it "dances" to my music. Good purchase!
