Philips Hue Bridge Pro
Last updated: 11 October 2026
The Philips Hue Bridge Pro is the current Hue hub. It runs up to 150 lights and 50 accessories, connects over Wi-Fi or Ethernet, and adds MotionAware, which uses the radio signals between Hue lights to notice movement. It costs £129.99 at Philips Hue, and Amazon UK often sells it for less.

What the Hue Bridge Pro is
The Bridge is what turns Hue bulbs into a system: it runs switches and sensors, keeps automations going when your phone is off, and connects Hue to Apple Home, Alexa, Google Assistant and SmartThings. The Pro sits above the standard Bridge, which Hue still sells, with more capacity and a faster chip. My Hue Bridge Pro review has the verdict; this page is the specification. The full details are on Philips Hue's product page.
What it does
- Capacity: up to 150 lights and more than 50 accessories.
- MotionAware: turns Hue lights into motion sensors, so you may not need a separate sensor.
- Connection: Wi-Fi or Ethernet, with a UK plug power adapter included.
- Size: 92.3mm square and 26mm tall, about the size of a coaster.
- Power: rated at 5W, with 0.1W in standby.
What else you need
The Bridge Pro is a Hue hub only. So Apple Home still needs its own home hub for automations, such as a HomePod mini or an Apple TV 4K. Similarly, Alexa routines run on an Echo such as the Echo Hub or Echo Dot Max.
The limits
It is built around Hue lights, so it makes most sense if Hue is your main lighting brand. Also, Amazon UK often sells it for less than £129.99, so check both before buying. On the other hand, if you have only a handful of bulbs, the standard Bridge in the Hue White starter kit does the basics.
Where to buy it in the UK
It costs £129.99 at Philips Hue, and Amazon UK stocks it too. My best smart lighting guide explains how it fits into a whole lighting set-up, and my smart home guides gather the rest.
