Certainly not a device I’ll buy. That is half the price of a brandnew iPhone or the price of a Sonos Play 5 which I would use a lot more often and given what you can do with one or two apps I can’t see too many people shelling out 500 bucks for that. The LED colour thing is nice, but the odd time I need this I can call somebody with Be my Eyes for free andprobably get better feedback. With some devices like routers or the Sonos it is not necessarily only the colour which matters but also whether the LED is a solid blue or white or if it’s blinking fast or slow etc.

According to the description, the Color Star "recognizes more than 1,000 different color shades, identifies color contrast measurements, recognizes the color of LED lights, perceives the light intensity in the surrounding environment, and recognizes patterns – all with clear spoken voice output." The new unit also charges via USB and includes stereo headphones. It's available now for $449 from their online store.<http://shop.aph.org/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_Color%20Star_39015223P_10001_11051> APH's previous color identifier, the ColorTest II was discontinued in January 2018.
