At the beginning of October, Philips Hue made its Hue Secure cameras cheaper and lowered the recommended retail price. And not too close, the prices were reduced by more than 30 percent in some cases. But that was not the end of the story. After a sale started a few weeks ago in the USA, there is now an additional 20 percent discount on Philips Hue smart cameras in Germany and Europe.
The official Philips Hue online store is now also running one or two sales. For us in Germany, this is often not particularly exciting, as there are often quite attractive deals at other online retailers. But thanks to hueblog.com, some other countries are also reading along here – and things can look quite different here.
I would like to draw your attention to a small price promotion. For readers from German-speaking countries, where there are often quite attractive offers, this may not be quite as exciting, but there are other countries too. In the USA or the UK in particular, Philips Hue is rarely available at heavily reduced prices, at least online.
The Hue Secure products have been on the market for almost a year now. There have not yet been any official offers, but this is now changing. For the first time, the Hue Secure cameras are available at a lower price in the Philips Hue online shop – and an additional gift makes it particularly attractive.
The Hue Bright Days don’t actually start until May 27, but you already have the chance to take advantage of great offers in many countries. There is a 30 percent discount on many products directly in the Philips Hue online store, and in some countries there are even additional promotions with discounts of up to 40 percent – ending on June 9th.
We should all have settled into the new year by now, after all 2024 is already three weeks old. It’s high time you took part in the Philips Hue New Year sale, which is available in almost all countries. On 21 January only, you can save up to 25 percent on your purchase.
When I last reported on the Rithum Switch, there were a few complaints about the high price. The NSPanel Pro, a much cheaper solution, was suggested as an alternative at the time. I ordered it back then and packed it up again just as quickly as it was delivered. The hardware, which was nowhere near as high quality, and the software, which was a pain in the arse, were the main reasons for me to quickly bury this project.
Even though Philips Hue has integrated several new functions into its app in recent months, not all of the possibilities offered by the system are utilised by any means. For extensive installations, especially in combination with switches and sensors, I therefore recommend taking a look at iConnectHue. You can currently get the app for iPhone and iPad for less – and that’s actually relatively rare.
Earlier this week I was able to report that Hue Essentials is now also available for download in the Mac App Store. However, the new app wouldn’t start on our Macs – and we had no idea why. In the meantime, the developers from the Netherlands have found the error and fixed it: It was due to older versions of macOS.
It is Prime Day again! And that means all of us Smart Home fans: you can save a lot of money again. Amazon has thousands of offers in store all over the world, including of course some deals around Philips Hue. In this article we want to give you an overview of the deals in many different countries.
