The frustrating thing is that it's the Hue Bridge that offers all of these types of functionality, not the switches. So there's nothing stopping Hue making this functionality available on all of the earlier switches as it was a software update to the Bridge that added the capability and they've just chosen to limit it to the new Dimmer.

Planned obsolescence. Capitalists gonna capitalise.
I read on Reddit that the All4hue so can make it work too. Think I'll keep the £6 for now.

Obviously we're all going to upgrade to the new Hue kit!
Or alternatively steer away from their over priced slightly locked in ecosystem. Yes their stuff is good and works well together, but there's lots of new bulbs and lights that perform better for a fraction of the price... Yet you can't fully operate a lot of them through the Hue app/Bridge for "security reasons"
