After vanishing from shelves shortly after launch, the Philips Hue Bridge Pro is officially back in stock in the US. The upgraded smart lighting hub is once again available through Philips’ own store for $98.99, with immediate shipping for American customers.

Philips Hue Bridge Pro offers smarter, faster control

Compared to the standard Hue Bridge, the Hue Bridge Pro steps up with several key improvements. It can now control over 150 smart lights and up to 50 accessories, making it ideal for larger homes or more complex lighting setups.

One standout feature is MotionAware, which allows your connected lights to act like motion sensors, automatically turning on or off as you move through different rooms. It’s a subtle upgrade, but one that can bring added intelligence to your smart home.

Wi-Fi and Matter support make setup easier

Unlike the older model, the Philips Hue Bridge Pro features built-in Wi-Fi, meaning you no longer need to plug it directly into your router, though Ethernet remains an option for those who prefer a wired connection. The bridge also supports the Matter protocol, ensuring compatibility with major platforms like Apple Home, Alexa, and Google Assistant.

The device is managed via the Philips Hue app, with full remote access and setup options. Its new black finish replaces the original’s white design, and it keeps things compact with dimensions of 92.3 x 92.3 x 26.0 mm.
