I noticed this “negative” aspect particularly on Halloween night: in the dim light, many visitors did not press the bell button on the Philips Hue Secure Video Doorbell, but instead pressed the camera lens. This is, of course, more than inconvenient. Now Philips Hue has responded, as Hueblog reader Marcel noted in our community.
I installed the Philips Hue Secure Video Doorbell next to my front door at home half a month ago and I’m pretty impressed. In this article, I’ll tell you everything the doorbell can do and which features are still to come. If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in the comments.
Along with the Hue Secure Video Doorbell, Philips Hue has also launched the Hue Secure Smart Chime. Both are conveniently offered in a bundle, which I can recommend. In addition, the system can also be easily expanded with additional smart chimes. In this article, I’ll tell you what options are available.

This morning, I found some time to install the new Hue Secure Video Doorbell with the Hue Secure Smart Chime. In this article, I would like to describe exactly what you can expect during installation and subsequent setup, as well as the settings offered by Philips Hue’s first smart doorbell. You can purchase the bundle for €199.99 in the Philips Hue online store.
And on we go with the new Hue products. The Hue Secure Video Doorbell is now available in both Europe and the US. I recommend purchasing it as a bundle with the Hue Secure Chime, the digital door chime from Philips Hue. This bundle is now available in the Philips Hue online store.
Two years after the launch of the first products, there will be new additions to the Hue Secure range in October. After initially being cautious about the Hue Secure Video Doorbell, I am now very curious about it. In this article, I’d like to explain exactly what it’s all about. I’ve already used smart doorbells myself Unlike a floor lamp or a simple smart home camera, you can’t just replace a doorbell on a whim.
In September 2023, Philips Hue presented its smart home cameras, and the launch was accompanied by a contact sensor. Apart from price reductions and software updates, not much has changed since then and the Hue Secure portfolio has remained unchanged for almost two years. This could change this year. I can well imagine that Philips Hue will add further components to the Hue Secure system in the fall.
