Philips Hue products don’t often see major discounts, which makes this year’s Prime Day deals especially notable. Prices have dropped significantly across much of the company’s smart lighting lineup, with deals on everything from smart bulb starter kits and sleep lamps to smart buttons. In some cases, the lowest prices are available directly from Philips Hue rather than Amazon, so we’ve rounded up the best deals currently available. If you’ve been thinking about investing in Philips Hue, now is one of the best opportunities we’ve seen all year to do so for less.
Philips Hue Twilight sleep-wake lamp
Philips Hue Twilight is a smart bedside lamp designed around circadian rhythms to help you wake up more naturally and wind down more peacefully. Its smooth, deep dimming is exceptionally gentle, and the dual light sources provide ample light when needed.
The Philips Hue smart bulb starter kit comes with color-changing bulbs that can be controlled with Alexa, Google Assistant, or the companion app. The included Hue Bridge lets you set custom lighting routines and expand your setup to 50 lights.
Part of the company’s new Essentials line, the Essential 16ft LED Strip Light, RGBIC, can work with or without a Hue bridge and has all the same features as Hue’s higher-priced models.
Philips Hue’s water resistant lamp can display millions of colors and lasts 48 hours on a single charge. The rechargeable lamp also offers customizable lighting effects and support for Matter, so you can control it via any major smart home platform.
An HDMI box, the Hue Sync syncs your Hue lights with whatever’s playing on any HDMI device connected to it. It supports up to 8K at 60Hz, has four inputs, and can sync up to 10 lights. Paired with Hue’s new Wall Washers ($384 for a pair) and a Bridge ($65.59), it makes for an impressive, albeit expensive, home theater lighting setup.
Control your Philips Hue lighting from anywhere in your home with a Smart Button. This wireless button has customizable functionality, allowing you to change scenes, adjust lighting temperature and brightness, or trigger automations.
If you want a bright floor lamp for a bigger space, this intriguing 57.40-inch tall option throws up to 2,500 lumens of light from its long, skinny strip. It’s built into a wide base that prevents it from easily tipping over. A shorter model more appropriate for a table or desk is also available for $165.99 ($76 off).
The Philips Hue Smart Dimmer Switch offers a simple way to control compatible Hue lights without relying on a phone or voice assistant. The battery-powered remote can turn lights on or off, adjust brightness, and cycle through up to four customizable lighting scenes.
The Tap Dial is the best smart switch for Philips Hue lights. This wireless, battery-operated switch can control multiple lights, scenes, and rooms and can be used like a remote or like a wall switch when attached to its included wall plate. It requires a Hue Bridge and works with Apple Home, Alexa, Google, and SmartThings. Read our full review.
These smart lights have beautiful colors, a nice selection of festive scenes, and an easy-to-use app. They are super reliable when paired with a Hue Bridge and also work over Bluetooth. They come in three lengths, work with all the major smart home platforms, and are Matter-compatible.
The Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Sensor detects movement and can automatically activate compatible Hue smart lights indoors or outside. The battery-powered sensor offers a wide 160-degree field of view, weather-resistant IP44 design, and flexible mounting options.
