Phillips Hue White and Colour Ambience Starter Kit
As we continue to become more connected, smart home devices grow in popularity and scope, like the Philips Hue, a robust, complete smart lighting system. Philips Hue provides interconnected lighting solutions for your smart home system. Through its bulbs’ abilities to shift in colour and light, you can customise your indoor and outdoor areas for different situations using the sleek app, schedule lighting for different times of day, and even have them turn on as you enter the home.
The bulbs can run directly through bluetooth and wireless networks, but for the true home experience, you need a Hue Bridge – a modem that runs and manages your bulbs, while linking them to your existing smart home networks – including your smart speakers, smart TVs, and even your music streaming service. The kit includes three colour smart bulbs and a Hue Bridge, which provides full control of the lights, access to the Hue app, and endless features.
