Philips Hue Smart Plug for Hue Smart Lights, Bluetooth & Hue Hub Compatible

I have several of these switches in the house so that we can turn lights on and off on opposite sides of a room. We used to have to go to the bedroom to turn on that light, go back across the family room to the opposite wall to turn off the family room lights and then use the bedroom light to find our way back across the family room to the bedroom. Now, we have switches on both sides of the family room so one sits right outside our bedroom door and the other where the regular switch sits. We also bought acrylic covers for the switches that are no longer needed because theyre replaced by these remotes.

It’s nice to have a physical switch even with the google assistant and the hue app I still like to just push a button if I want to. Looks good on the wall adhesive backing works good. You may need to update your hue app . Dims brightens on and off ,perfect . Battery on my older version switch lasted almost 2 years. Not bad.

This is a great utility for a house with more than a few Philips Hue bulbs. It makes controlling your lights faster, more convenient, and especially more natural. Much more seamless than relying on voice control alone, and beats pulling out a smart phone even if it has home screen shortcuts. I gave this four stars because of noisy buttons. We use this in our master bedroom, and the only quiet way to turn on the lights is by turning the wheel, which limits its usefulness at night. At an already hefty fifty bucks, Id be willing to bump it up to sixty if that got me quiet switches.

I had some bulbs that were quite far away from the Hue bridge. I bought this to plug it in closer to the bridge, thus acting as an extender to get a stronger signal to the lights that were having connection issues. Works well for this... although a bit of an expensive solution.

The switch is easily programmed by tethering either to a light bulb - or - by adding it to the app and programming everything over the phone once. Using the phone app, the Hue and power buttons can then even switch between different sceneries / modes. Which makes this really nice. Also - the remote can then work from anywhere in the house - which makes it even more interesting (and dangerous to chaos if you have multiple and switch them ;) ). All in all I really like this and bought even 2 more controls!

Does exactly what I needed it to. And solved a little electrical problem I had!

Have been using V1 switch for 6 or 7 years with zero issues. Upgraded to this and works even better. Shipped with near dead battery causing disconnection on second day of use.

The plug works great with the hue system. Fast responding. Clean, well made design. For those who say that it does not have a dimmer Im actually very happy it does not. You can use it for other devices than just lights! I know it is part of Philips Hue lighting product. I think it would be a mistake not to understand outlets arent just for lights and that Philips Hue system should be aware of the full home ecosystem. It is a well made product. A little on the large side though designed to not block the second outlet. The main down side is its price. It is a bit expensive to justify purchase in quantities. All Hue lights are a tad too expensive I find...

I’m the biggest fan of Hue in my family. I don’t mind pulling out my phone or using Alexa to adjust the lights in one of our rooms…the rest of my family on the other hand could care less. These dimmer switches are brilliant because if someone else in the household turns the hardwired switch off manually the whole system goes down. Now, anyone in the house can power the whole room on/off, dim the lights, and cycle through different schemes without needing the app. Docking 1-star because the mounting faceplate is a non-standard size. It’s about a 1/4” bigger than my standard plates…looks slightly off, wish they could’ve matched standard sizes. Not sure about the long term 3M adhesive holding up, but it sure was simple to place on the wall. Looks like there are mounting holes if you really want to do it right. Curious how long the battery will end up lasting, but the process of setting up and assigning to a room was super simple in the Hue app. Must have for Hue owners in a multi-person household.

I use these plugs to control and automate lamps. Theyre easy to install and configure. They work seamlessly with my Hue bridge. They replaced plugs from another brand that used a cloud service that constantly failed. Thank you, Philips!
