Signify announces range of new Philips Hue products

Signify has announced a range of new Philips Hue products. There are lamps, spots, a button and a socket. Almost all products will be released in Europe immediately or quickly, the manufacturer says.

Only the Philips Hue Go won’t be released until next month, Signify says. The new version of the portable lamp has a larger battery and has Bluetooth. As a result, a Hue Bridge is no longer necessary to operate it, because it can be done directly from the Hue app for phones.

In addition, Signify has announced some models of spots with gu10 connection and lamps with fake filament. There are also fixtures for three or four spots, equipped with Bluetooth to be able to operate them without a Bridge. There is a wall socket for lamps that cannot be operated via a Hue system in any other way. This makes it possible to switch those lamps on or off via the app, although it is not possible to set colors. In addition, there is a new button to control lamps. Virtually all announcements were already in a folder of which information had already appeared online.
