This smart LED lamp from Philips Hue combines the benefits of LED lighting with the appearance of traditional lighting. Due to the shape of the lamp (Globe G125) and the clearly visible LED filament, the lamp resembles an old-fashioned light bulb. The LED lamp spreads white light with an adjustable color temperature. The lowest color temperature provides extra warm white light (2200K), the highest color temperature for bright white light (4500K). This releases a maximum light output of no less than 550 lumens, compared to a relatively low consumption of 7W. The light can also be dimmed to adjust the brightness. The lamp can be controlled via bluetooth or via the Zigbee protocol. The Bluetooth connection has the advantage that it can be established directly between your smartphone or tablet on the one hand and the lamp on the other; all you need is the Philips Hue Bluetooth app (for iOS or Android ). In addition to an app, in this case the Philips Hue app (for iOS or Android ), a connection to the Zigbee protocol also requires a suitable gateway. A gateway, such as the Philips Hue Bridge, ensures that the signal of your local WiFi network is converted into a Zigbee signal. This allows you not only to link more light sources (max. 50) but also to schedule the linked lamps to automate them. *If you have a voice assistant , the lamp can also be controlled with your voice by using Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa. **The Philips Hue Bridge is required to use Apple HomeKit.
