18-11-20244 buttons, 1 dial. Each can be used to control a room or zone. Or, they can control one room or zone, using each button/dial to set scenes. I have already installed 4. They are great for zones or rooms that are visible from where you control the dial. I have a dial near my bed to control my bedside lamp, bathroom, sitting room and kichenette. I have another one at my door to control the same 4 zones. I also have 2 in my kitchenette: 1 to control the lights in all 4 zones and the other to control my kitchen equipment. Basically, I can control all lights from any zone using the dial, just like a phone would. If you are bothered by smudges on your switch, avoid the black one. They all work flawlessly!

> 3 dayFor some reason every once in a while it won’t work unless I press the button twice. Other than that it’s great I also use it to control my ceiling fans.

> 3 dayThis switch is awesome, it’s very easy to set up and works exactly as expected. My only beef with it is that now I have 2 sets of switches side-by-side in every room- the old ones that need to stay on at all times to provide power to the bulbs (for connectivity), and these dimmer switches. Guests have no idea which ones to use & end up disconnecting the bulbs half the time by flipping off the old switches. I wish Philips made switches similar to the ones another brand makes, where the new switch sits OVER the old one, forcing the old one to stay in the “on” position.

> 3 dayHaving physical controls for smart lights is a must unless you want to constantly be asking Siri (which in some cases is a hassle). This switch is super easy to add to your existing home structure through the Phillips Hue app and easy to physically install to the wall. My only complaint is the lack of a designed ‘off’ button means a little configuration needs to be done within the app in order to set that up. You can still program a button to be the ‘off’ switch, it just took a couple times to get the Hue app and HomeKit to play nicely together.

Greater than one weekI have several of these switches in the house so that we can turn lights on and off on opposite sides of a room. We used to have to go to the bedroom to turn on that light, go back across the family room to the opposite wall to turn off the family room lights and then use the bedroom light to find our way back across the family room to the bedroom. Now, we have switches on both sides of the family room so one sits right outside our bedroom door and the other where the regular switch sits. We also bought acrylic covers for the switches that are no longer needed because theyre replaced by these remotes.

18-11-2024Switch works well. You need the latest app to be able to recognize and setup. After that the setup is easy. I bought two. Enjoy having a rotary switch for the dimmer. I replaced the orignal, square ,white version 1.

> 3 dayEvery year my husband gripes at me about leaving all the Christmas lights on and my Christmas villages lights...ect. We ordered several of these and linked all the decor plug-ins to them. These sync perfectly with our Philips app, so we were able to set specific times during the week or weekend. Now he is happy and no more having to have that argument each holiday season lol.

> 3 dayThis item makes a great gift for anyone who owns multiple Hue lights. Obviously the app or a voice assistant are more than capable of doing the job, having a movable wall switch for guests to use is invaluable. On top of that, after I got used to how I programed the buttons (i.e. what lights are triggered and what colors of lights to use), I found myself using the switch almost exclusively). While the price is crazy high, you wont think twice about it after purchasing and setting up. I had some bad luck trying to connect to my hub at first, but now that its connected my troubles are gone. I know not many users have that problem, but I will at least note here that I had to do a factory reset in order to find it in my Hue app
