Customer Ratings & Reviews

If you're like me you're here because your 1st gen hub threatened you about not working with Alexa. I needed this to continue the ease of use of controlling my Philips Hue lights with my voice. The swap out was very easy and gives you step by step instructions through the Hue app. You'll need to run discovery through Alexa afterwards though so she can find the new unit and you may possibly need to delete some duplicates through the Alexa app that she thinks she found.

Basically it is essential for Philips smart home products to connect to through wifi. Can buy alone or bundled with another Philips smart products. I have had no issues with it connecting to wifi or my smart product. Simple one button touch and there connected. Great product so far.

The product worked well and was able to connect to all my existing lights.

To get the lights to actually change colors and have use of the dimmer effect, you need to purchase THIS Hue Bridge Product and download the Hue App to your phone. The connection is easy and hassle-free. It comes with the wire to connect directly to your Wireless Router. Very simple. You only need to purchase this product once. You can buy as many lights as you like and they will connect to this bridge device. I am happy about this purchase especially after seeing so many bootleg version on IG that I didn’t trust to purchase. It helps having a trusted name like Phillips!

A must buy if you have multiple Hue accessories. Expensive once you buy the lights, bridge, sync box etc but worth it once you display them

Super easy to setup, connects seamlessly with my alex ecosystem. Hue lights also work great!

Happy with how easy this was to set up. It's a little pricey but works with all of our Philips Hue lights!

The hub is the perfect size and blends right in with the other internet products. Since upgrading our modem and router haven’t had any connection issues with the hub either.

Excellent product! Works perfectly, and is very useful, especially if you're going to be using multiple Philips - Hue lighting products.

The hub hooked up to my network and Google fast and simple. It works well and works with all my Philips light bulbs and lights without any difficulty.

I have the hue system set up for myself and love it. For my mom I thought it would be easier to go with wifi bulbs instead. Mistake! I had to reset them 3 times in 2 days. I ended up returning them and got her the bridge, a couple of lights and a couple of google home devices. A little pricer but well worth it for the reliability. We have it set up in a way that it can be used as a safety back up from anywhere in her home with contacts being accessible by voice. It adds an extra level of security and my mom absolutely loves the google access.

If you're connecting this to a samsung t v make sure you add the bridge in your smart things. The t v will done recognize it via the app when you purchase it on the tv. It takes a little patience and trial and error otherwise once it's all linked up that works great.

This item worked exactly as it stated it would it was pretty much plug n’ play I would certainly recommend that any one who has Hue Lights and needs or wants to seperate them into groups or rooms get this unit it also allows you to turn your lights on & off if your internet goes out.

The Hue Bridge works great at integrating with my Hue smart lights (6) and the Echo Dot! It was easy to set up! Love the mood lights! I havent had any complaints thus far.

Used the new hub to create a second entertainment area with Gradient strips. Works like it should!

Good product, pretty easy set up and the app is alright. I have had mine up running for over month with out any problems. I have a hue led strip, a bulb and a dimmer swith connected to it. The hub seems to have good range. I was able to connect all 3 items from about 30 feet through multiple walls in my house. Plenty of expansion if you have a big house before you need a second bridge. The app is pretty good, basic but good. There other apps out there to different things like blink to music, change colors based on tv, lighting, halloween and other things. It integrates with smartthings, google home and ifttt as well. You need to use the app on phone or tablet to control the lights. I reccomend one of the dimmer switches if you have family and want other people to control the lights without a phone and tablet. This stuff is very pricey.

The bridge works well with my wi-fi and the lights. Simple to install but it has a bit of a learning curve to get all the apps and lights to connect and then run. MUST WRITE DOWN LIGHT ITEM NUMBERS before you install the bulbs into the cans, all those numbers have to be inputted into the bridge app to work. Pair with the light remotes and is very easy to use, no LED connection issues when using the remote vs. directly wired to your house switches

Easy set up and doesn't disconnect. Been having power outages lately but when that happens it reconnects on its own

This device is required to run a larger number of (Philips) light bulbs and strips. It was easy to set up but a little more expense then it needs to be. Overall I enjoy the system.

Love this product I’ve had one for 7 years Bought these for my friends
