This TV backlight sync box is for the gamers! Here is my review of the Fancy LEDs HDMI 2.1 TV backlight sync box.
Not only does this RGB lighting kit react to your content but it also runs at 4k@120hz meaning you won’t need to compromise on gaming performance!

Special thanks to my boys for helping me out with the Fortnite gameplay!!

Just purchased the 2.1 with the 3 inputs. Very excited for this. Thanks for the review.

@arcadespawn Месяц назад

Excellent choice! 3 ports is the ultimate setup! Enjoy!!

@harrycrisp8897 Месяц назад

Just got it installed and turned on my PlayStation and it is already working perfectly. Don’t have to do the app or anything. Was very surprised. Everyone made it seem like I had to do the app and stuff to calibrate it. It blew me away.

@arcadespawn Месяц назад

Interesting. Worth doing the app though to adjust how it behaves etc! Enjoy!!

@harrycrisp8897 Месяц назад

Yeah, I ended up doing the app to make sure everything was at 100% and tested out all the scene stuff. Very happy with it. Thanks for the review again and you helped me make my purchase. This is a great product. So happy with it. I was all giddy for at least an hour watching tv. Haha.

@nonosquadgaming Месяц назад

How did you get them to send it to you with only 138 subs?

@tylerc2809 5 месяцев назад

Great review. How does it know where the corners of the TV are so that it matches what's on the screen? Like a 60 inch tv would have different length to a corner than a 80 inch tv.

@arcadespawn 5 месяцев назад

Thanks!! My total guess would be that it works out the length based on where the LED terminates and then matches up to the aspect ratio of the display.

@TomEversley 5 месяцев назад

Great review mate. Must say I prefer static lights, but this is impressive, great it works up to 120hz 👍🏼

@arcadespawn 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Tom! I definitely prefer to change the settings to suit the content I’m watching! Creates a great atmosphere!

@MaliceandEnvy 3 месяца назад

How do you see the test colour screen after setup when connected to ps5? (The test colour screen is featured in the first few seconds of this video btw) any help would be much appreciated.

@arcadespawn 3 месяца назад

These are from RU-vid. Just lookup 4K colour test or similar and you should get lots of videos to show off your setup!

@MaliceandEnvy 3 месяца назад

I see. Thanks, for replying.

@yusida5557 3 дня назад

Just got mine. Lights are working with scene and music, but they’re not working in real time. I mean lights are not synchronized with screen. Who can help me?

@olivier3816 5 месяцев назад

Hi and thanks for that great review! I've got a question: I watch lots of contents with subtitles, and I wonder how it behaves in those conditions, particularly in widescreen/letterbox with subtitles in the black bar at the bottom of the screen... Does it flash white light underneath the TV when the subtitles pop? Thanks in advance!

@arcadespawn 5 месяцев назад

Thanks! Interesting question. I can check that! Bit tricky as my TV is on the stand so less light shows but I can check what the LEDs are doing.

@arcadespawn 5 месяцев назад

I checked on a few things but on all of them the subtitles overlapped the film and the black letterbox. In this scenario it didn’t make the lights react. Might be different if the subtitle is much lower.

@olivier3816 5 месяцев назад

@spawn Thanks a lot for having checked so quickly, you rock!! That was the only missing detail for my purchase decision !

@arcadespawn 5 месяцев назад

Finally

@LLL-us9lw 28 дней назад

I slowed down the playback speed to 25% and i can clearly see LAG during the mario bros scene when it switches from blue to orange. Has this been improved at all in firmware since this review? Thanks!

@arcadespawn 27 дней назад

Hi, the diffusion speed changes the effect so much it's tricky to comment on lag. I suspect it's one of those cases when you have to try for yourself to see if it's right for you.

@Mr1FTW 11 дней назад

Will it work/look good with my TV that is hanging on the wall with about 4cm distance? Or does it require to have some distance?

@arcadespawn 11 дней назад

More distance would mean for more dispersed lighting for sure but even when you use LED strips behind a desk it can be effective. I think it would be fine but you could always get a cheap led strip for some testing first?

@victorpitan8744 4 месяца назад

Is the gaming bundle also compatible with watching movies or is it only compatible with the console?

@arcadespawn 4 месяца назад

Hi! It needs an hdmi device but doesn’t have to be a console. Devices like Apple TV or Fire Stick will work also. There’s a compatibility section against each product on their website if you want to be sure.

@TheSd1cko 5 месяцев назад

Do any of these boxes have the ability to work with lights that might be at the other end of the room away from the tv?

@arcadespawn 5 месяцев назад

Yes there are some that do that. So Fancy do triangles for example, and they’re not physically connected to the sync box, but will sync with it because of the app.

@TheSd1cko 5 месяцев назад

@arcadespawn Thank you. does this app run on the TV? We have a Sony android TV but we usually watch everything over our sky box. Just trying to understand what will and won't work. Thanks again

@arcadespawn 5 месяцев назад

It uses a mobile phone app. I’ve checked and Sky boxes aren’t listed in their compatibility list but if you contact them via their website they’ll be able to confirm.

@TheSd1cko 5 месяцев назад

@@arcadespawn thanks again, I will take a look

@godslayer0165 3 месяца назад

Would the 2.1 sync box be good for watching animes and other things? Or it is mainly good for gaming?!

@arcadespawn 3 месяца назад

Still very cool but if you’re not gaming then the HDMI 2.0 version might be better value if it’s cheaper. So long as you’re watching from a device that connects via hdmi.

@MonahSaad 17 дней назад

Is it compatible with govee light 💡? Please need an answer for this

@arcadespawn 17 дней назад

Not that I know of. You’d likely need to use Fancy LED lighting kits to work with their app etc.

@Bigpapapump-yb9wf Месяц назад

Which color bulbs can I sync to this ???

@arcadespawn Месяц назад

Fancy do some triangle lights and a new Neon product if that’s the kind of thing you mean?

@MS_Techno_Beast4 10 дней назад

Bro I am from India and was thinking to a buy a oled or qled tv.And i don't play games on it. So do u think the lights are effective for these oled and qled models and which type of model in the syncing lights (like 3 ports, 2 ports,etc) should i order. I am actually from india so if the lights don't work for my tv(sony) it would be a waste time and money for me.

@arcadespawn 10 дней назад

It’ll be effective but the ports really depend on what you’re intending to connect to it. If you’re just planning to stream and watch TV via the smart TV then it won’t be right for you.

Does this have to be HDMI 2.1 TVs to work?

@arcadespawn 15 дней назад

Probably not but you’re not getting the most of the box. There’s an hdmi 2.0 version which might be a better option depending on whether you’d be likely to upgrade to hdmi 2.1 in the near future.
