Love the lights, but they are NOT waterproof

I ordered 3 sets of these lights (300 feet total) to go around our house, and I love how the look and all the features/things you can make them do. There is one critical flaw though.they are not exactly waterproof (outdoor lights?!?!?!). After just 30 days hanging outside, numerous bulbs are showing water inside and starting to flicker. I'm hoping that unplugging them and cleaning out the moisture will return them to perfect working order without long-term problems with their lifespan. It's…

Pros
  • ‎Dimmable
Cons
  • May not be as bright as expected at full brightness

Wife loves them for the camper

My wife has been asking for lights for the camper for a while. But I've been undecided on what to get. These fit the need perfectly.They are long enough to cover the outdoor area without being overly saturated in lights. The ability to dim and change to any color you want is amazing and are very similar to hue lights we have in the house.Bulbs are sturdy and I don't see them breaking anytime soon.Would recommend!

Pros
  • ‎2.23 pounds
Cons
  • App control may be affected by internet connectivity

Love govee smart lights

I have several govee brand smart lights, and I LOVE the integration. the app is easy to use and works really well to create scenes that I can trigger with Siri shortcuts. These lights are no exception. They look great, and feel very premium. I don't have them outside, but I think they would work really well outdoors. right now they're up in my florida room, and I love that I can trigger different scenes with 'hey siri'. Great kit. Recommend, especially if you already have Govee products that…

Pros
  • Easy to set up. Tons and tons of options and effects. 10/10 love these!!!
Cons
  • May require additional wiring to work

Very nice! good for me

I got these to set up on my patio but unfortunately I haven’t had the chance to do that. I did however test them out and they are really nice. Colors are vibrant and I really like how it’s all controlled through my phone. The setup through the Govee app couldn’t be easier, instead of going through the list of items they have, just type in the model and it’ll find them right away. Set up probably took about 2 minutes or so. Once I set them up I’ll update my review with pics but so far I’m very…

Pros
  • ‎Outdoor
Cons
  • Light may flicker if not set up properly

Very happy with these. Great functionality.

I hung these in my 11' x 20' porch, after stringing a 3/32" wire back and forth to hang them from. The 2 connected 50' strings fit very nicely with 50 bulbs total, 1 every 2 feet.The app connects via Bluetooth. I plugged the string into a Z-wave plug to automate when the lights go on and off. I use the app to program colors.Each bulb is individually addressable. I initially hung them for Christmas and used a Christmas theme for colors, but later decided to alternate red and green. Now, after…

Pros
  • Works well love the brand!
Cons
  • Difficult to install for novice users

Nice set of lights: my feedback

Govee is quite the innovator with their light sets. Nice quality. We are planning on using this on our deck since our old set of lights outside have died. When I first plugged them in to test them out they are only white when you turn them on. You need to download the Govee app in order to be able to change the color of the bulbs. In the app you can changed each bulb individually, 1/5 of the string, the whole bulb set. The power adapter in not waterproof, but everything else is. These will work

Pros
  • String Lights
Cons
  • App control may require a subscription fee

Feels and looks very cheap

I have bought and used Govee light strips before and was very impressed with their products. I bought these lights as I was going to build a 50 foot high Christmas tree. After receiving my one unit I decided that based on the unpacking and cheap looking product not to use these. These lights are probably great for a small patio or balcony.And no, never got to build my 50foot tree. Ended up with only 25 feet high and no smart features.

Pros
  • ‎Adapter&Control Box, Bulb Strip Light
Cons
  • Can't be used without specific app control

Each light can be controlled individually

These lights are perfect for just about any occasion. We plan to decorate our home for Thanksgiving and Christmas with them. My favorite feature is that you can control each of the 25 lights individually by using the Govee app, so you have an unlimited number of combinations available to you. The app has more than 40 different predefined modes that you can choose from, plus you can create your own. If you buy 2 sets of these lights, you can connect them together to give you 100 feet of string…

Pros
  • Versatile: These Govee Smart Outdoor String Lights can be used for a wide variety of purposes, from outdoor parties and dinners to everyday use on your balcony or garden. They are perfect for creating a cozy ambiance at home or hosting a spectacular outdoor event
Cons
  • May not be as durable as other outdoor string lights in the same price range

Very cool lights for my opinion

These lights are awesome. They have so many more features than similar products on the market. You can control the brightness, music mode makes the lights dance to your music. The app was so easy to connect and we all have fun changing the different scenes. Best of all the price point is unbeatable. I will be purchasing more products as they all connect in the app.

Pros
  • DIY Lighting: Activate your Valentines Lights with Govee Home App. Choose from 16 million colors and warm white to customize the colors of each bulb and enjoy lighting in your garden or patio.
Cons
  • Can be difficult to dim to the desired level

Fun year round lights

These seem to be great lights so far. Tons of options for colors from within the Grovee app. One this they do not add as a suggested addition to this set, if you intended of having them displayed in a place there they may get wet/moist ect, buy a waterproof container for the control box so it doesn't short out.

Pros
  • ‎14 watts
Cons
  • May not be as customizable as other outdoor string lights

Update: 10/15/22 DOA

Update: as of today 10/15/22 my original worries about these lights not being ready for outdoor use proved true. Despite my best efforts to conceal the power supply and control box from the elements they have failed. The lights are no longer getting power and the control box no longer has its LED light up. These lights are less than 2 months old and this unacceptable for product of this price. I’ve reached out to Govee and I’ve yet to hear back.There is a lot to like about these RGBIC string…

Pros
  • Easy to Install
Cons
  • May be prone to electrical shorts or sparks if not installed properly

These are amazing! in my review

I have so many different sets of govee lights that we have used around the house. I am super excited to use these outside for the holidays.They are super bright, and thousands of different color options, modes, pre programmed modes and colors , alexa, google etc. I have other sets of their outside lights and the ones out on my patio in the back yard have been up and outside on a timer for 18+ months that turn on nightly for 4 hours and still work as good as the day we got them.We tried these in

Pros
  • 4 Music Modes: Govee string lights can produce different lighting effects with the changing of music rhythms using the pickup function, creating a vibrant experience to liven up any party or get-together.
Cons
  • May not be as reliable as other outdoor string lights
