Philips Hue is giving its popular GU10 bulbs a performance boost. The new generation offers a significant upgrade in brightness, reaching 400 lumens compared to the previous 350 lumens. This translates to a more noticeable light output for your spotlights and track lighting. The upgrade doesn't stop there. The new GU10 bulbs boast a longer lifespan of 25,000 hours and a 50% reduction in standby power consumption, making them both more durable and eco-friendly. The GU10 retails for $134.99 in Canada for a two-pack.

The enhanced GU10 bulbs join a wave of exciting new Philips Hue products. They've unveiled the Twilight sunrise lamp to improve sleep, decorative Lightguide bulbs for a touch of style, the Datura ceiling light for versatile illumination, and the budget-friendly Solo light strip for affordable lighting solutions. The company also updated its Philips Hue Secure system.
