Review on 🎢 Enhance Your Entertainment: OHSO RGBICWW Dimmable LED Strip Lights with Music Sync & APP Control - Perfect TV Ambient Backlight! (2 pcs) by Whitney Starvaggi

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Basically he did what he had to do. Bad assembly design.

You could say they do what they say on the box. Just not very well. They really give off a nice diffused light in RGB. Various templates and a music response mode are included. Fully USB powered, which is good for desktops where you're likely to have USB power for various other devices. However, the design may need some improvement: the remote seems to have the ability to tweak R/G/B, but they only switch to those colors (although they seem to exist in the presets just below. It definitely requires making the App does something decent. Default colors are only good if they suit you. The 'White' option has a blue-green tint which I think looks odd in any setting. Reactive mode actually doesn't work very well. I'm not sure where to mount the small built in controller which contains the microphone.. but they barely responded to the rather loud speakers on my desk This was tested before I installed it as in the picture Both mounts in the kit work not. The devices themselves have a non-detachable cable and a strain relief at one end on the back, makes sense doesn't it? Except they're probably growing secretly sometimes away from you (expansion compensation and wire towards you); stand or attach to the back of the monitor in their own examples. The surface mount option attaches nicely to the devices themselves, but since the wire sticks out on one end, there's no chance you'll be able to mount it to anything unless there's room for that strain relief. It basically cannot be used on flat or relatively flat surfaces. In the picture I tied it to a wire stand under my desk where there is a place to release the tension. Overall I can say that they at least do what they promise. They're just not very good for themselves. Mounting options and cable orientations really get in the way of use.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Modern
