The new switch has been redesigned and boasts a sleek matte finish. It depends on how far into the hue ecosystem you are.
The top button acts as a dimmer, while the bottom button adjusts brightness. The hue button is fantastic for customizing up to five lighting scenes. It's much better than using the app when i just want to turn on / off light or cycle through preset se... Read More

If you use apple home and homekit like i do you can use it with that but you lose the multi functionality of the buttons
