PHILIPS Hue Smart Dimmer Switch with Remote, White, 1 Pack, Turns Hue Lights On, Off, Dims or Brightens, Smart Home Control, Requires Bridge, Easy, No-Wire Installation

Setting up this Hue Smart Button was quick and straightforward. I was able to link it to the exact lights I wanted it to control without any hassle, and it’s been working reliably ever since. My usage is pretty simple, but after seeing how flexible the configuration options are, I’m considering picking up additional switches for other areas. The adhesive on the back of the wall plate sticks well, and it’s held firmly in place since the day I mounted it. Some reviewers have mentioned concerns about the magnet strength, and while it isn’t especially strong, it’s perfectly adequate for my setup. The area where I installed the switch doesn’t get a lot of traffic, and I’ve been able to use it normally without the remote coming loose. Overall, it’s a clean, easy‑to‑use addition to a Hue system with enough customization options to grow into over time.

The PHILIPS Hue Smart Dimmer Switch is a convenient way to control your Hue lights without reaching for your phone. The buttons are responsive, and dimming feels smooth and precise. The remote is lightweight, easy to mount, and works reliably from across the room. It’s perfect for quick on/off and adjusting brightness without extra apps. Overall, a simple, practical addition to any smart lighting setup.

Works out of the box for the thing you want it for, which is turning lights on and off without losing Hue connectivity or having to open an app. Supposedly it can be programed to control other things via third party tools like Homekit, but I'm not messing with that; this thing allows my household to turn the lights on the old fashioned way, while still letting us have them set to a schedule, automations, fun colors, etc. I looked around for other cheaper solutions, but they were all a lot more work; this one is worth the $30ish bucks for ease of use alone. Unless you're a serious smart home tinkerer, save yourself the frustration and go for this one.

These Philips Hue wireless dimmer switches are an absolute game-changer! Seriously, I'm kicking myself for not getting them sooner. If you're looking for an incredibly easy and convenient way to control your Philips Hue lights, look no further. Effortless Installation Forget about tools, drilling, or messy wires. Installation is unbelievably simple: just peel off the adhesive backing and stick them wherever you need them. A quick wipe of the surface with rubbing alcohol beforehand ensures a super strong bond. It's truly a no-fuss, no-muss setup. Quick and Easy Setup Configuring these switches is just as straightforward. My first one took about five to ten minutes to get set up, but after that, each subsequent switch was a breeze—literally about a minute per switch. They work beautifully right out of the box. Remote Control and Magnetic Convenience One of the coolest features? These switches aren't just for your wall! You can easily remove the switch from its base and use it as a portable remote. And here's the best part: the back of the switch is magnetic! Stick it to your headboard, a metal nightstand, or any other metal surface within reach. When you're done, simply pop it back onto its wall mount. It's incredibly versatile and convenient. I'm truly impressed with these switches and the entire Philips Hue ecosystem. The ease of use, simple installation, and clever features like the magnetic remote truly set them apart. If you're considering enhancing your smart lighting setup, these wireless dimmer switches are a must-have!

I love these wireless switches. Not only are they great for controlling hue lights, they also integrate with Home Assistant very well. I would definitely recommend these if you live in a rental space and can not hard wire switches.

The switch works quite well for me with Hue and HomeKit. But, I have to take a star off because the V2 design has rounded edges and can too easily slide off the magnetic plate if tapped from above. I solved this by adding two tiny friction pads (thin double-sided tape) on the back of the switch, which prevents sliding while keeping it removable. Otherwise the switch works very well once you know how to master the HomeKit-Hue integration, I let Hue handle the on/off and dimming and use HomeKit to control the color temperature so I can get it more time-of-day appropriate light. Feel free to ask me questions in the Q/A below if I can help.

My home project earlier this year was converting a lot of my home lights to Smart lighting. For a while these were backordered and I had the simple one push smart buttons but mostly because I just couldn't access these. I wish I had started with these! I was able to obtain three of them. The plate was easy to install and looks nice with the existing hardware for a 2000s constructed house. It involves just screwing in a base plate and snapping on the top plate. The remote easily attaches with the magnet to the base and is very portable, attaches strongly to stay put but isn't so strong you have to wrench the remote off. Sometimes in the dark I have flailed at it and knocked it out of the groove but that's pretty infrequent. The settings are interesting - the top button can be set to either be a specific single brightness for a room/zone/set of lights, dimmer works well but is a bit slow in speed. HUE switches between a set of up to five scenes that you can program for the zone or room. I have my home exit switch which is in my 'mud room area' set to 'turn off all lights after holding for three seconds' and this easily lets me shut off all lights in my house on my way out. The HUE button is what's most convenient for my uses, because of all my rooms my bedroom has eleven separate lights (in a variety of towers, nightstand, accent lights, and torch). There are some times I just want to turn on a few lights when I'm zipping in to grab something and don't want every single light on. The 'power' top switch I have set to a nice incandescent color. For the scenes, I set the first one as a limited scene with just one tower and the torch so I get enough light to see by but don't have to turn on every single light. Multiple presses then go into my favorite four scenes afterwards. In essence this is a like a two button 'on' switch where I can use the Hue to get to a more efficient pattern, all from one single switch site. I have these also set up for my living room, where power is the full shebang and then HUE is only a overhead light over my computing desk - which makes it super convenient to use one single switch site to control multiple looks of lights. It's so easy to swap things around once you have the switches in place. So far so good!

Good brand, ease of use in configuring and connecting to the existing hub.
