Signify is expanding its Philips Hue smart home lineup with new wired wall switches and upcoming lamp models. The company lists pricing for the switch modules in European markets, indicating a shift away from battery-powered controls toward hardwired installations. The new wired modules allow direct control of lights through wall switches, removing the need to use a smartphone for basic operation.
Signify lists five wired switch variants with specific euro pricing in the app
The Wired Wall Switch Module connects directly to existing switch wiring instead of using batteries. This design removes the need for periodic battery replacements while maintaining standard wall switch placement. The module operates within the Hue ecosystem and supports both single and two-pack configurations.
Signify lists five wired switch variants with specific euro pricing. The single Hue Wired Wall Switch Module costs 44.99 EUR, while the two-pack retails for 79.99 EUR. The one-channel On/Off Switch is priced at 49.99 EUR, and the two-channel version costs 54.99 EUR. The dimmer switch completes the lineup at 59.99 EUR.
The wired dimmer switch allows users to control non-smart lamps through the Hue app. This feature extends smart lighting capabilities to traditional fixtures without requiring bulb replacements. The On/Off switches provide basic toggle functionality for connected lights, and all modules integrate with existing Hue infrastructure.
Swiss online retailer Brack listed several variants of these products with euro prices before removing them from its store. EU pricing for these items is currently visible in the Philips Hue app next to their respective names and icons, though official retail details remain pending. No official launch date or broader regional availability details are confirmed at this time.
Signify also mentions upcoming models including Philips Hue Panels and a large lamp called Go XXL. The exact dimensions and compatibility for the panels remain unconfirmed in current app listings. A previous April Fool's joke image showed a potential Go XXL design, but real product specifications have not been verified.
