Since their arrival on the market, smart bulbs from the Philips firm, known under Hue, have been quite popular in the world of home automation, where we must include Apple's HomeKit in addition to the accessories in question, because thanks to this service everything is it has become much easier.
However, the problem with these bulbs is that, in addition to the devices in question, it is also necessary to have a bridge or bridge to be able to manage them from the devices, to what finally from Philips have decided to put a solution by launching new models that incorporate Bluetooth technology to be controlled, as we will see.
Philips launches new smart bulbs that work with Bluetooth and don't need a bridge
As we have been able to know, it seems that recently from Philips they have decided to present their new Hue bulbs, which in this case work directly via Bluetooth instead of a bridge, something that has certain advantages but also certain disadvantages.
Said bulbs in question will start selling quite soon, although in this case They also do not forget the classic models, taking into account that from the firm they sell these others with more functionalities, taking into account that more can be used with the same device (up to 50 compared to 10 possible with Bluetooth), that they work with a greater range, or that they can be programmed.
However, taking into account that it is not necessary to buy the bridge, in the end these bulbs are cheaper, which is why they are still a great idea for those who want to start in the world of home automation. Similarly, an important detail is that, at least until Apple changes the conditions of use of HomeKit, they will not work with Siri, although if you have a smart speaker or a device with Google Assistant or with Alexa, you can configure it. to follow your orders.
If someone knows how to connect them from the smartphone to leave it in writing, it has been two weeks and I still cannot connect them, they are the philips hue bt and there is no way. Thank you
