For instance, while the set we tested responds to sound, it doesn’t respond to on-screen colors, and you can’t add just a camera - you’ll have to purchase a different light strip set, the Govee Dreamview T1 Immersion Backlights. Andrea Smith/CNN UnderscoredĪnother issue is that while Govee makes a ton of light strip products, you can’t just add accessories to the system you already have. Given the lack of corner connectors, to make right-angle bends with the Govee (and the other RGBIC strips we tested) we found it easiest to make and secure a loop, which we found more difficult (and a less efficient use of the LEDs themselves) than systems that could be cut to length. We ended up looping the strip under itself where we wanted to make a 90-degree turn, hoping it wouldn’t come away from the floor or create a dark spot at the apex of the bend. Govee also sells an RGB version of these, which can be trimmed to length, but the color effects are more limited, and overall we prefer the RGBIC version.Īlso, since Govee doesn’t include corner connectors like the Philips strips, you can’t easily make clean right angles. This means that unless you plan to use up an entire run (the shortest length these come in is 16 feet) illuminating your media center or gaming battle station, you may end up with a lot of excess to hide away. The most frustrating downside here (which is common to all RGBIC strips) is that because of the integrated chips that allow the multiple color effects, the Govee strips can’t be cut to size. Our issues with the Govee LED strips are pretty minor given the overall solid performance and value of the system. Combined with the easy-to-use Govee app and color-changing special effects for entertainment and fun, these light strips will not disappoint. Govee light strips are also more affordable than others with similar features - basically, you get longer lengths and more coverage for less money. I had no issues with connectivity or placing the lights with the adhesive backing. They can be integrated with voice assistants (Alexa and Google Assistant) without a hub, giving you control over colors, schedules, music and much more. The lights are vivid and reasonably bright (they put out 820 lumens, similar to a string of 60W lightbulbs), they’re true to color and they can be dimmed to create ambiance when needed. They’re thin, with a light coating over the diodes, and very easy to bend for installation.

The light strips come in 16-foot, 32-foot and 64-foot lengths, typically divided into two reels sharing a single power adapter and control box for manual use.
The strips are voice reactive, so when connected to your sound system, the lights will flash and dance in time to the music. There are dozens of preset scenes to choose from, in addition to 11 music modes, making these great for a teen’s bedroom, a dorm room or when you’re hosting a party. They are a ton of fun to use. That means using the Govee app you can customize different segments of the strip to show different colors, or create lighting effects that look like the lights are jumping or cascading or chasing each other, with individual diodes turning on and off or changing color rapidly for a rolling or snake-like effect. RGBIC light strips (IC stands for “Independent Control”) can display more than one color at a time, unlike RGB lights, which show only one color. If you’re looking for the greatest range of color effects and want plenty of coverage for your money, look no further. Smart home integrations are simple and don’t require a hub, and they’re simple to mount with a secure adhesive backing.
