Philips Hue ‘Bridge Pro’ leaks with ‘more capacity,’ turns lights into motion sensors

9to5mac.com Ben Schoon 2025-11-23 18:56:54

Philips Hue appears to be preparing a new “Bridge Pro” setup that turns your smart lights into motion sensors, while also supporting more devices. The existing Philips Hue bridge is a core part of any Hue setup. The bridge connects to your network and communicates with each product, and is part of the reason Hue tends to be more stable than hub-less smart home offerings. But the hardware hasn’t been updated in a while, and a common complaint is that it can only support 50 devices at a time. Th
