Philips Hue bulbs gain dual Zigbee and Matter support

Philips Hue lights will receive an update later this year enabling simultaneous Zigbee and Matter over Thread connections. Currently, selecting Matter disables Zigbee. The update applies to bulbs using Silicon Labs' MG26 and SiMG301 chips, including current-gen E27 bulbs, allowing seamless switching between the Hue Bridge and other smart home hubs.
