I think people think I have a vendetta of some sort, but I want to assure you that if Philips reversed this decision tomorrow and started releasing sensibly priced products my tune would immediately change They make some awesome stuff, but now it's not just at a premium, it's at the cost of acceptable business practice Do me a favour and help spread the word, just liking the video will help, but if you can share it on social media even better This has to stop!

Hi Paul, I own 1st gen Philips hue bulbs (and the 1st gen Bridge) Can I use them with my Alexa or should I buy the Philips Hue Remote control as mentioned in your video? Also, should I buy a new bridge as well or the remote itself is the only gadget I will need to pair my bulbs with Alexa? Thanks Comment from : Diego Orenstein

like spending extra money on a 4x4 truck and they decide to remove the 4x4 system after purchase Comment from : 404_error

Great video Paul! So of all the other hubs which one is the best and compatible with Apple HomeKit?brI looked at Smart Things and they have discontinued :-( their hub!brNot sure is Hubitat is HomeKit compliantbrTRÅDFRI (Ikea) is HomeKit compliant but like you said last year the software is pants - have they improved?brCalex (Tesco) is not HomeKit compliant currently :-(brAre there any other choices? brRaspbarry pi build your own???

Me and my dad both use Phillips hue and We like it a lot Comment from : Lights and Fans Guy1999

I personally just hate the fact you just look for negatives in the Philips systems all the times brbrPhilips Hue is the only company products i can get crazzy cheap during the sale even cheaper than LIFXbrbrbrPersonally never bought gen 1 hub brbrI will go ahead and buy philips in future too, they have ZIBGEE, and one of the Brightest WHITES in the market Comment from : Div

I am annoyed my v1 bridge died so i bought v2 Now the bulbs don’t even connect Comment from : AY

This actually violates consumer antitrust laws Comment from : Tekel Upharsin

I am changing your name to Paulips Hueberts 😂brbrAs usual, great stuff Comment from : Ali Haris

I just entered to the PHue system with a pair of Play lights and 3 bulbs I really love it, but now I feel anxious Comment from : Baron Mateo

Now to the important question can you still use the gen 1 hub with Home Assistant? :D Comment from : David Kalbermatten

Well, I thought I may be going insane, but I'm feeling better now Philips Hue Evil, Corporate Greed brI'm not the only one :) Comment from : Jeffrey

Moving to a zigbee hub and selling all my hue lights with gen 2 hub on ebay Use the money to buy other lights etc Comment from : Lawrence Scott

As ever, a great video - amusing and done in 'lay speak' which is always a bonus, thanks x Comment from : Toria Summers

Sonos went down this path and had so much negative feedback they changed their minds Comment from : Chris Blythe

i actually abhor Phillips but love the products from hue i have never had an issue with it, other than when my ethernet switch killed itself and I thought the hub diesbrbrbrthat was a fun day Comment from : Jon Murphy

i love philips hue, but i agree i havve gen 2 hub already need to get multicolor Comment from : Jon Murphy

I think the title could be a little less click baity and specify its for hub gen 1 brbrGood tips on pairing the bulbs with other zigbee hubs though! nice to know i have an alternative if there is planned obsolescence for my gen 2 hub at some point Comment from : Grant Ephross

security concerns Comment from : Gazzius

This video had me sweating until he mentioned it was the gen 1 hub I literally just dropped $700 on hue Comment from : subliminal444

He is right Comment from : jeff labatt

I couldn't care less Gen 2 hubs are readily available second hand(due to kits often being cheaper than individual bulbs) for less than half retail So basically $5 a year brbrWho cares brbrNot to mention there may be a legitimate hardware issue that won't work with soon to be released product etc You have NO idea why they're discontinuing it(just because function is the same, does not mean hardware is the same) Could be a security flaw or other issue they are giving customers months to replace a cheap hub brbrNah just rant about it knowing nothing because you are frustrated they aren't supporting a hub you probably aren't even using anymore anyway Comment from : Lunchos El Maximus

I've been getting into home automation recently and been building my own led controllers and all sorts I've watched a lot of videos on home automation and yours has just come up I too hate Philips as a company I've had 2 phillips items break in the last 10 years both within the warranty period and in both cases they refused to honour the warrantybrI just bought a new TV and was honestly toying with getting a Philips TV for the ambilight I just couldn't do it and after seeing this I'm glad I haven't as I wanted to integrate it into my home assistant Thanks for the interesting videos Comment from : Joe Augier

I just upgraded to the new Philips hub the first gen hub only cost £250 from eBay and it's lasted me 4 years and it's looking like the 2nd gen Hub is only gonna cost £15 so it's not too bad as I got the most out of my £250 lol Comment from : one legged wonder

Most of the mobile phone manufacturers do this Apple for one drives ya nuts Comment from : andy smith

Why is Philips even doing this?! Comment from : Josh Bacon

Isn't it just easier and much much cheaper to turn your lights off the old fashioned way, instead of going the "home automation" route It is hardly like we are all bed ridden and have disabilitiesbrHow impressed are people by this stuff really? br When leaving a room, flick a light switch You don't have to pair your finger or connect it to a network, or worry that the Chinese company that made yiur brain is going to go bust so it will never work anymoreor rant at a YouTube guy for making a video, you just you know flick a light switch on the way out of the room Comment from : Stuee

Are you real or are you a mechbot, look at your eyes, they are not real, cyber implants maybe and rather scary I have heard of circles under the eyes but glowing ones in the eyes Did Philips make you ? Comment from : John Lightfoot

I got a Smart Bulb from Hama Comment from : Icid

I understand your anger Paul but maybe it's got something to do with their new hardware such as the Philips Hue sync box I think it's the most logical reason why they're doing this because it needs the 2nd gen Bridge to work it can't work off the Gen 1 Bridge Comment from : John Dykes

I have a better idea Instead of voting with your feet, vote with your wallet (I'm sure it's just a British thing I just wanted to add a comment to help with your YouTube standing) Comment from : vonries

also, avoid C by Ge color bulbs too made FOR Google after the nest/G merging they crash repeatedly Comment from : BigDaddy Stein

I'm thinking about buying a smartthings starter kit but for some reason the £83 from your link from UK in Amazon Spain is 183€ way to expensive! does anyone knows if I could have any problem for buying it in UK and using it in Spain? Comment from : Daniel Robles

In defense of Philips I need to set the record straight a bit Philips sold Philips Lighting several years ago to Chinese company Siignify Initially Philips retained 41 of shares, later reducing that to 17brSept 23 2019 the remaining shares were sold to Signify The name Philips Lighting already had been changed to Signify in May 2018 but the name Philips Hue was kept as a trademarkbrThe decision to drop 3rd party support was taken after Sept 23, thus was not a Philips Eindhoven decision but a fully fledged Signify decision Signify, though apparently chinese capital (through Varova investments), has french board and is registered at the Paris stockmarket Comment from : Ed19601

I 100 agree with you I don’t support products with planned obsolescence Im having a difficult time with buying the next-gen iPhone because i know they will ruin it with a bad ios in two years so that i have to buy a new one I guess I’m buying a Pixel instead Comment from : Eric Geer

thanks for info Paulhow could anyone not like you?? you're adorable!!brI have Lifx colour bulbs (only 3 of them as they are so expensive!!) but I love the colours - I researched before I bought them that they are superior to Phillips bulbs I do have lots of amazon echos in the house and I wish Amazon would bring out their own smart bulbs at a cheaper price - after watching your video I will never be tempted to buy a Phillips Hue bulb :) Comment from : Peter Powis

Am I late for the circle jerk? Comment from : MrReckshop

buy yeelight instead Comment from : Rhode Island Bourbon Enthusiasts

Wow See I was conned into getting a gen2 hub because I found a starter kit for cheaper than just the 3 bulbs I needed, but like you said there was nothing wrong with the gen 1 hub It doesn’t do anything different or get wider range It’s just a different shape I now feel bad for the person that bought my gen1 hub off me for $10 Comment from : BenderTube

Luckily in my country we would be protected by the consumers guarantee act if the product no longer works as intended you can return it for full refund Comment from : Corey Askwith

I love your videos, cruel!! I have Philips Hue but also think their products are expensive so I try to find guides and buy others that I connect to their hub Comment from : andreas zetterberg

I miss the Sylvania options I got to the lightify party too late :( Comment from : Dallas Moman

Unfortunately Philips Poo have very poor customer service My Poo hub 2nd Gen locks me out about one a month and requires a complete Poo factory reset You can still see it via its IP address on the home network, but can't get the app to connect to it Philips have no idea why I returned a hub and the replacement does the same thing They obviously didn't do any diagnostics of the returned device and just sent out a replacement I'm told that Poo doesn't like to work on home networks Great I'll just stop using thousands of £s other home automation systems in my home and just use Philips Poo They are so incompetent that they won't create a cloud or app based backup, so setup of 25 lights takes a while following each of the fun resets and that's before I have to reprogram Echo! Not good Bring on the next 20 Poo updates that most likely won't resolve the issues! Comment from : On The Fly By

Phillips Hue is NOT A GREAT PRODUCT Can anyone honestly tell me that the routines actually work all of the time Mine never do I wasted hundreds of dollars on very expensive colored light bulbs I thought I was buying lights that would turn off and one while I was away from home They never do this Comment from : Patrick Lonski

Philips is a Dutch company and there are only two things I can't stand in this world; People who are intolerant of other peoples cultures, and the Dutch Comment from : Jack Schrier

I completely agree with you on this video I got 6 hue bulbs currently and only them for Hue, I will not be buying another Hue product not unless it's stupidly cheap (side note that was the only reason I bought the 6 I got already haha) Comment from : WelshTony1

Click bait 👎 Comment from : Evan V

Just another reason I use Home Assistant with zigbee2mqtt Comment from : Thermal_Axis

I not Phillip's, they are only using the name Comment from : ron t

I agree with youbrAnd that is why I never have bought Philips Hue productsbrbrbrPhilips, in my opinion, is charging a lot of money for their productsbrAnd now, they are stripping away supportbrSo, what is their advantage?brRight now, NONE!brbrbrThus, for me, Philips Hue is to ignorebrbrbrTo be clear: I own many Philips products: my 4k television, hair trimmer, toaster, etcbrBut Hue products I will not purchase Comment from : hitardo

This is just the way the world works people, technology improves, and old tech becomes obsolete, Ie, non supportedmove on! Comment from : Ben

I Watch all you're videos m8 there always a good watch But there's lots of companies already doing itoff topic abit but I bought a bose sound bar few weeks ago only to find I couldn't set it up through the app as my phone was 3 years old and didn't have the latest software versionso I had a choice,buy new sound bar or buy new phoneso I ended up having to get a new phoneit socks Comment from : Peter

Aaaaah yes Good ol' outmoding to the benefit of a corporation and to the detriment of the customers (and planet-landfills will be loaded) Comment from : Em Salsa

Maybe that's why you have to bring the hub near to the LED strip to add it Comment from : Aerial_Wonders

Paul, can you make a howto to connect the phiips Hue to other systems? Comment from : Hans Houbraken

Video seems to be YouTube drama sorry but anyone getting into a V1 product in 2012 there going to be some problems IOT device are still very new market and manufacture depended on chips that might not have long term support if the chips in the hue bridge V1 have no more software support from the chip maker They can't guarantee a secure product they aren't saying the bridge won't work just online service won't work I think hue as done a amazing job in 2012 Alexa & Google assistant wasn't even a service these are all features they added to a product at no costbrbrI assume this guy still want is analogue tv working also Comment from : Anthrox

Looks like you found the answer If the product has a problem it should be recalled, fixed, or replaced!!! Comment from : Chris K

I fail to see the problem? They are killing of cloud support The hub will still work on the local network You won't get new features and updates but it will work Using a VPN you can even still switch on the lights remotely Comment from : Matthias W

I was considering it because I have a Hue TV and I would really love to sync the video with the bulbs for a more immersive experience Philips seems to be the only company out there that offers this, or am I bad at Googling? Any tips of how to do this without wasting money on Philips Hue? Comment from : insomnium

Phillips Hue can't keep releasing security updates for the gen1 hub forever so this is a move to get people on to something more secure Comment from : yaynative

Thanks for the links! 👍🏼👍🏼 Comment from : thebluray

I blame Logitech They did it with remotes first Comment from : Act1veSp1n

I have a sonoff r3 tasmota and linked to alexa with phillips hue bridge Will that still work in april? Comment from : Ian Seymour

This is why I hate the cloud and subscription services, local control and home assistant ftw Comment from : Kevyn Watkins

I really have no problem at all with my Philips hue I got the new one years ago the old one can be thrown away I don't care the whole Philips Hue system works really well apart from being expensive, but you know that when you buy into the system Comment from : Paul

So what do you think about the Philips Hue play HDMI that's coming soon is there another alternative to lighting up the back of your TV Comment from : William L Robinson

Really? The philips hue owners don't get that you are not against them? Really???????? Comment from : Nek Lamp

if your watching this in 2025 - does the Gen 2 still work ? - Probably not!! Comment from : Adrian Snell

Nice one or not so nice from Philips Hue Comment from : ElectroSwingable

I agree with Paul, for comparison Samsung still supports the SmartThings gen 1 hub and they are now on gen 3 I actually still own and run the gen 1 hub with no issues I even email Samsung support on occasion and they always provide me with support regardless of the gen hub I am running Comment from : Eric Morales

Homeassistant hue emulation No Philips hub no cloud required Problem solved Comment from : Bob Moran

Hi Paul, great video I like the idea of the ambient light system like the hue I haven't bought anything yet as been watching all the review videos so what system would you recommend if you was buying from scratch? Comment from : Adam Billings

It might be worse than what your saying I've now read their end of life policy, and it states support with their own app CAN also be discontinued after 3 years That would mean, if they ever decide to make a major change to the app, v1 would not be upgraded to match, thus you would lose the ability to connect to v1 through your phone as well This is not the case currently, but it could be one day This is the reason why many people do not trust ANY company that requires the cloud to run their smart home devices Google did this with Nest, and now we have this issue with Hue Comment from : Nucks4Cup

Absolutely agree with you, Paul I bought a starter kit very early on, and loved it, but when cheaper competition became available I said I wouldn't buy from them any more However, I did receive another starter kit as a gift and it came with the gen 2 hub, so the changes will not immediately affect me when they happen This action by Philips does make me even more determined to not buy from them in the future though as it sets a dangerous precedent Not only are they making good hardware useless for their profit, they are creating e-waste We are already drowning in waste as it is Comment from : charmanr

Hypocrite man I wish this video was more facts and less opinions and misleading clickbait Go figure tech that's years old is being replaced Comment from : skoat
