The font they’ve used to emboss the logo reminds me of a time gone by while the soft touch rubber and satisfying click just makes me want to keep pressing it. I’m an absolute sucker for the retro design of the Flic. A button that can be used to control many of your smart devices and much more beyond that. It works well but is limited to Hue bulbs and this is where Flic have found their niche. Philips picked up on this some time back and introduced a stand alone switch to control its Hue range of smart bulbs. The smart functions are great but the traditional functions can become cumbersome as a result. That’s something that is often forgotten. So if you use the switch on the wall to turn off a bulb the smart functions stop working. For smart bulbs to work the switch on the wall needs to be left on all the time. You can set them to come on at different times of the day by themselves or to turn on when a sensor picks up motion, which is great, but if you want to turn them on outside of one of these routines you need to do so via an app on your phone. Something I have talked about here before is how some smart devices often perform worse than the device they replace. Flic is a wireless smart button which, once paired with your smartphone, can perform a multitude of tasks assigned to either a single click, a double click or a click and hold of the button.
