About this product
Want to unlock the full potential of your Philips Hue lighting system? The Philips Hue Bridge is the control hub that connects up to 50 Hue lights throughout your home, letting you manage everything through the Philips Hue app on your phone. It works with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri for voice control, and uses reliable Zigbee technology to communicate with your lights. Once it's plugged into your wireless router and set up, you can control your lighting from anywhere, create schedules, and build custom lighting scenes across every room.
The bridge sits neatly on a shelf or desk without taking up much space. You'll need a wireless router to get started, and the system operates over Wi-Fi and mobile internet so you can check on your lights when you're away from home. Installation involves connecting the bridge to your router with an Ethernet cable, downloading the Philips Hue app, and pairing your Hue lights. The system works with iOS and Android devices, and you'll get automatic updates that add new features and improvements over time without any hassle.

Step towards home to automation
Provides the link to Siri, setting up wasn't difficult but it equally wasn't without some issues. For the cost the instructions are poor in my opinion. The star rating for Brightness is irrelevant as its not a light

Great Feature's
Good price, Easy Install & Setup, does what its suppose to.

Expensive but effective
An expensive extra gadget to setup my colour scheme with Philips hue lights and sync box, but it does the job well. I don't use other Philips products so it's probably more cost effective if you do.

Great product and great price
Got many when they were in offer but had to return a few as some boxes came with security seal opened

Great Features
This works as perfectly as it should. You need all the required items for it to work properly but it is a fantastic item

Better than bluetooth
I have been controlling Hue through bluetooth and its been fine but this is ten times better. just opens up straight away and was really easy to connect. although i found entering the serial number of the device / bulb was much quicker.

Smart Bridge
Makes using the Phillips hue lights a breeze, a bit tricky to get connected, but ultimately works with no faff since then

Excellent stuff
Works brilliantly. Although more expensive than other smart stuff, quality is definitely better.

Easy set up
Easy to connect and set up, I didn’t encounter any issues controlling the lights, I did find that the lights on the bridge were very bright so I put some tape over them which was perfect. Would have been better if this was part of a package deal as dearer than others when purchased separately. I would still recommend this one though

Simple and wonderful unit.
A simple and easy unit which provides many options to create a smart home and taylor the experience to your needs. Very simple to install. Just download hue bridge app, plug in the small unit to a socket and plug in to your router. The instructions on the app will guide you, for me literal took less then two minutes to connect. After that you can scan for any smart devices that work on the ziggbe connection, and again very simple to connect. It's amazing to find out that you can adjust your bulbs colour, temperature and energy usage so easily, simple log on to app and slide the control bar to suit your needs. You can even use pre installed settings, and amazingly you could host a party and have your lights connected to your music so it flashes and changes colours to create a disco. My experience of just having lights to switch on and off has grown, and its wonderful that i can change my experiences in my home simple through this hue bridge.

Hello Andy,
I can advise the following for the Philips Hue Smart Lighting Bridge:
Yes, when placed in an area that the outdoor sensor can reach the Zigbee connection, unless you have multiple bulbs/sensory in the property and one is close to where the outdoor one is.
Thanks for using Q & A.
Hello Sh,
The Philips Hue Smart Lighting Bridge is designed to control Philips Hue products.
Thanks for using Q&A
Hello Fru,
I can confirm the following of the Philips Hue Smart Bridge:
At present the lenarvo lux led bulbs are showing any support with the Hue bridge however you will be able to use a 3rd party bridge that the hue bulbs will more than likely be able to connect to.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi Crazy hill boy,
Our supplier has advised this is Gen 2.5.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hello Charlie,
I have spoken to our supplier who have advised as follows.
The Philips Hue Smart Bridge With Bluetooth is not exactly Gen2, more like Gen 2.5 – it has all the functionality of Gen2, but adds Bluetooth compatibility.
I hope this helps.
Thank you for using Q&A.
