Will the Philips Hue White and Color Ambiance B39 candle E12 bulb work with the Philips Hue Bridge Pro?
Yes, with conditions. Works, but it also needs Zigbee hub.
Both records are reviewed against the manufacturers' sources; sources last checked 2026-10-14. Informational only: confirm with the manufacturer before buying.
Why
- ✓ Both use Philips Hue Bridge (Hue Bridge or Hue Bridge Pro).
Conditions
- Zigbee hub: Needs another device that provides Zigbee hub.
Good to know
- Hue products connected only over Bluetooth cannot be used with Matter; Matter support comes via the Hue Bridge.
- The standard Hue Bridge supports up to 50 lights and 12 accessories; the Hue Bridge Pro supports 150+ lights and 50+ accessories.
- The Hue Play HDMI Sync Box and the dial on the Tap Dial Switch do not support Matter.
- It also relies on Zigbee hub, which this device doesn't provide. You may need another device in the home that does.
