However, when the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/759240\/philips-hue-leak-hue-bridge-pro-zigbee-motion-sensing\">Bridge Pro launched late last year<\/a>, it wasn&#8217;t immediately obvious why I should upgrade. The signature feature, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/759240\/philips-hue-leak-hue-bridge-pro-zigbee-motion-sensing\">MotionAware<\/a> &#8211; which turns your lights into motion sensors &#8211; is neat, but I already have motion sensors. While I run two of Hue&#8217;s standard bridges to accommodate all my lights and accessories, I&#8217;m not at a point where I need the Pro&#8217;s higher device capacity.
