A great lamp if you don't mind the price.

This is not my first Govee product, I have bulbs, LED strips and road chains but this is my first lamp and I am very happy with it. Bought an old LED lamp to replace and fill a specific shelf space in the studio and after trying different ones she brought this one back to life. As I always say, this is my personal opinion and only reflects my experience with her. Some people say that $60 is a lot for a simple lamp, but when you think about it, with the right lighting you can completely transform an entire room, so it's not expensive to me. It has different scenes so you can set it according to your mood to change the experience. The app is very easy to use and the response with Google Assistant or Alexa is fast. I don't use DIY mode or FX Lab because I find it a bit difficult or boring and I don't design light patterns or other things, I stick with what it suggests, but I'd love to see more scenes in the next update. Like many other users, I feel that the drawings in the scenes are not very clear, but I don't mind, some other lighting models and transitions are good enough for what I need. There are a few things I don't really like, firstly, even though I control the lamp with Google Assistant most of the time, there is a problem with the application when I open it, sometimes it takes too long to connect, and sometimes says it says the connection failed, so I have to close and reopen it until it works. Secondly, I don't like the music mode, it has to sync with the applications you use, Spotify and YT Music in my case, because the microphone picks up and interferes with all the noise and noise around, to be honest music mode is not too smooth , is a bit clumsy and needs a little tweaking. The third is the timer function, which I don't like because it always switches the light color to a yellowish tint. And it keeps changing until it turns off and for me it should stay in the color you chose and not the programmed one and I know an update can fix that. I've been reading about some problems after a few months, half the lamp is paralyzing and some answering questions, hopefully this won't happen to me because it will turn an amazing smart lamp into a very expensive ordinary LED lamp.

Pros
  • is understandable also by the old
Cons
  • Legacy model
