The biggest thing this has going for it is that Hue artificially locked some software features behind upgrading to the v2.0 (time of day based lighting). Biggest downside is that Hue cheapened out on both the physical switches and magnets. These things fall off their provided holders frequently compared to never on the v1.0 dimmer switch, and the button press switches feel mushy and often don't detect a press (the switch under the button feels under-sized, so if you don't hit it dead-center it may not fire).
The cost-cutting is real. But yet it still costs exactly the same as the v1.0 dimmer switch.
