Are you a light connoisseur? Can you tell the difference between "cool daylight" and "warm white"? If so, Philips has just announced what could be your next favorite lightbulb: the Philips Hue white ambiance. The company promises that the white ambiance delivers "every shade of white light" from color temperatures of 6,500 k to 2,200k. And by hooking up the bulbs to the new Philips' Hue app, you can use the "Routines" feature, which shifts the color temperature of the bulb as the day progresses, supposedly leading to better sleep.

This color-shifting isn't completely new for Hue, as Philips' older bulbs could do this — but only the color ones, not the cheaper, white ones, and using third-party apps to set daily schedules. The new white ambiance bulbs will be available in the US from Spring 2016 for an unknown price. As well as single bulbs, Philips will also be selling a starter kit containing two white ambiance bulbs, a dimmer switch, and a bridge that supports Apple HomeKit — meaning you can control your lighting using Siri.
