A shade for every mood I have some Hue white and color ambiance bulbs, and they make it so easy to create just the right atmosphere for any situation. I love that I no longer have to settle for harsh full brightness and a single shade of white light. Hue’s full color bulbs offer a choice of over 16 million colors and 50,000 shades of cool to warm white light. And you can control it in almost any way you want. This A21 model is a little bigger and a lot brighter than the more compact A19 Hue bulb. But it’s still a standard size that fits most common light fixtures. No Bridge required One of the only complaints I’ve heard about Philips Hue bulbs is that you have to have a separate Bridge to control them. Well — not anymore . This new bulb connects to your mobile device using Bluetooth. You can then use the Hue mobile app to control up to ten lights in one room of your home. Use your voice You can also control this bulb hands-free if you’ve got an Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant device. That means you can turn your light on or off, dim it, and recall your favorite presets just by asking. Add wall control Operating your lights with an app or your voice is fun, but you might find that some members of the household prefer a good old fashioned wall switch. If so, you can pick up a Hue dimmer to add a wall-controlled option to your Bluetooth-based system. Expand your system with a Bridge to do more If you want to do even more, you can add a Philips Hue Bridge (sold separately). Then, you can control up to 50 Hue devices — even when you’re not at home. The Bridge also adds compatibility with other Hue accessories and Apple HomeKit. You can also set schedules and create routines. For example, a “wake up” routine gradually increases the brightness in your bedroom to mimic the effect of sunrise. That sure beats the buzz of an alarm clock.
