    It needs to be wireless instead of plugging into the switch.

    I've used an older version of Hue but wanted the voice control through Apple home. This one was much harder to setup than previous bridges. The instructions offered by hue are almost non exsistent and I had to watch YouTube videos to figure out how to get it to work.

    Not ready for prime time

    Not ready for prime time. Bought this kit to use with the Amazon echo. You have to say the item name EXACTLY or they do not work. For example If you say "Alexa turn bedroom light on" it won't work if you have named it "bedroom lights" with the "S". The Wemo wall switches are far more forgiving. Also getting the system to work with the color "scenes" is almost impossible. The lights internal network is weak at best. I have the Phillips hub plugged into a Linksys Nighthawk switch but the lights in the kitchen just 50 feet away become unreachable quite often. I have to hit the relearn button on the hub to get them back online. BTW It's not the home network. I can access the internet in my backyard 100 yards away!

    I guess you have to have the lights pretty close to the hub. I kept losing signal whenever people gathered around where the lights. Around 3 or 4 people would gather there and I couldn't reach signal. But once no one is there, i can control perfectly.

    $199 dollars for 3 bulbs is not worth it for how they perform. OK they turn colors and I could control it through a phone app is that worth $199? That will be your choice to decide.
