Philips Hue White A19 E26 (810 lm, US): what it works with
Philips Hue · model White 60W A19 E26 (810 lm, 046677591045 4-pack) · For the US and Canada
- Matter Unconfirmed
- Apple Home Via Philips Hue Bridge
- Google Home Yes
- Amazon Alexa Yes
- SmartThings Via Philips Hue Bridge
- Home Assistant Yes
Bluetooth gets the Philips Hue White A19 (US) going without a bridge. The Hue app controls it directly, and Hue's FAQ says Bluetooth bulbs pair with most Echo devices and with Google Nest speakers and displays. Apple Home and SmartThings need a Hue Bridge, which also adds remote access. It's a fixed warm white (2700 K) E26 bulb at up to 810 lumens. Home Assistant supports it through the official Hue integration via the Bridge, or bridgeless through Hue BLE.

Ecosystem compatibility
| Platform | Works? | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Matter | Unconfirmed | Hue's page lists Matter among third-party systems, but under 'Hue Bridge required' and with only Bluetooth and Zigbee radios, so this looks like Matter via the Bridge. We found no CSA listing for the bulb itself.[1],[4] |
| Apple Home | Via Philips Hue Bridge | Hue's product page lists Apple Home under 'Hue Bridge required'; the Bridge connects via HomeKit or Matter.[1],[4] |
| Google Home | Yes | Through Hue's own Google Home integration. Hue's FAQ says Bluetooth bulbs work bridgeless only with Google Nest speakers and displays; the product page lists Google under 'Hue Bridge required'.[1],[3] |
| Amazon Alexa | Yes | Through Hue's own Alexa integration. Hue's FAQ says Bluetooth bulbs can pair with most Echo devices without a Bridge; the product page lists Alexa under 'Hue Bridge required'.[1],[3] |
| SmartThings | Via Philips Hue Bridge | Hue's product page lists Samsung SmartThings among third-party systems, under 'Hue Bridge required'.[1] |
| Home Assistant | Yes | Official Hue integration (via Hue Bridge) and official Hue BLE integration (since 2025.12, bridgeless Bluetooth). The BLE docs don't name this specific bulb.[5],[6] |
“Via Matter” means you add it with that platform's Matter controller instead of a brand skill or app. “Unconfirmed” means we couldn't find an official source either way. How we verify.
