Philips Hue better watch out because the Govee Lyra Floor Lamp smart light is incredible. In today's video I review the smart floor lamp and tell you everything there is to know about how to use the Govee app's gradient features. I'll go over all the ways I'm using it with Alexa, Google Home, and Siri Shortcuts and show all the scenes, gradient, and music modes available. This video is a must see! This is some major competition for Philips Hue's new Gradient Signe Floor Lamp coming next month.

Absolutely love Govee! Can’t wait to see the rest of your series! They really are helping push the smart lighting industry!

@Justin_tech 2 года назад

Govee has definitely impressed me! While I still love hue, the idea of having some govee around the house to incorporate alongside Hue is totally doable and cost-effective.

@SimonLeicester Год назад

I have three of these Govee Lyra floor lamps in my living room in the 3 opposite corners from my TV. They give off a pleasant background ambient light. I like the design which matches my Bowers and Wilkins silver speaker stands. You can now sync with the Govee immersion tv backlight, the T1 or T2 although I found that a bit distracting flickering away even on the slower movie mode although it does add to the immersion effect. Possibly if I had them either side of the TV it would be mor3 effective. Easy to assemble with all the screws and screwdriver in the box, and even better value now they are on offer with £50/$50 off. I’m not worried about them being dazzlingly bright because are ideal for bringing light to a dark corner of a room especially on a miserable Winter’s evening.

@MomoVantage Год назад

Yeah I can’t justify spending more than double the price for hue, not until I at least try out govee. I get that it probably is better, but the costs for hue products are just too high when there are much cheaper alternatives, albeit perhaps not as good

Or will I need Flic you mentioned even for the voice commands together?

@Justin_tech 2 года назад

You can control all Philips Hue and Govee in a room, together, at the same time like that, yes. You just need to put them all in a room on the Alexa app. Optionally, you can assign the Alexa to a room so you dont need to say "in bedroom," etc.

@samuelgomez974 2 года назад

@@denodan yeah, in my experience it requires a little of diy soldering to make a clean look, cuz the ones with pvc and exposing leds looks horrible, also, if you are after that, I would recommend using the Tp link lightstrip, Philips hue gradient or even the Lifx one (even with the not so reliable connection stability) Using those for DIY will give you by far, the best colors, whites and brightness by far that no other leds gives. But, tbh, those Lyra from govee is a lot of banco for your buck

What limits you from buying 2 pairs of Bluetooth HarmanKardon speakers. Buying a Govee led strip and fixate it to a led alumium fixture, create a base for it to sit ontop of the BT speaker. Kazaam! For 200$ per piece you have a stereo pair of speakers with a led show exactly like this for 30$ extra for the led feature. Total for a stereo par 460$ 😷 Less per unit than Philips Hue & you get 2 speakers!

Right? The box makes it appear that you face the lit side into the corner but when you do that, the cord faces out and the logo faces the corner. So it's either supposed to be lit side facing out and the box is wrong, or the pole itself is screwed into the base the wrong way.

Your paying for the app, not the lightbar, as its far over priced. You can buy them for half the price at least, or make them dead simple and less than half the price the components are cheap, so a good 80% of the price your paying for the app. Think the price is a rippoff.
