I'm using the Phillips Hue Sync Box for my TV and I also have Phillips Hue Lamps for my Room. I have a RGB Stripe from Philipps Hue too but it's not as goood because it falls off on my table and my Wall is Green so the colors are wrong. I have also ICUE Smart Tower but they are not really Syncing. Do you have better recommendations?
Hello Mr. SpawnPoint! Big fan here from Costa Rica, quick question here hope you have the time to answer it I see that you use the SteelSeries Artic 7P+ and you play Warzone but when I play on my PS5 there is echo on the mic. If you know the answer thank you !
govee was a cool brand that had great products with a good price but now they have same prices as philips hue lol not worth spending 300 bucks on 2 lights.
Mine just came in, the version is H6602. I absolutely cannot get it to work on my setup, Xbox Series X to Samsung M8. Upset that it can't do 4k 120hz, worse yet, I can't get it to work with my Evangelion gaming bar lights. When I plug the lights to the only USB-C port, only one light turns on, but again, it doesn't even matter because my monitor doesn't recognize the Sync Box. Total waste of money, but I won't return it because I got it for only $79.99 and seems to be sold out at the moment.
If you have a pc DO NOT, i repeat DO NOT buy this garbage. It is not properly designed for pcs and barely works. The “workaround” only works until u start a game up just to be delighted with the fact u can only set it to 1080p 60fps. I contacted support about this issue knowing they wouldn’t give a damn since I’m using a workaround and not technically what the products intended use is for. However they told me to try it normally so I did. I was even more surprised to find out it doesn’t even work normally, the highest res i can set on windows is 2880x1620 (native for me is 2560x1440). This is extremely disappointing considering most of govees products are rlly good. They just seemed to not put too much care into designing this thing which is crazy because it has to be their most expensive product. If you insist on getting hdmi backlights lytmi has the fantasy 3 light box which has hdmi 2.1 support so you don’t even need a workaround plus you can make it so whenever your monitor turns on so do the lights. Both of which are not given to you by the govee box, all this while being around $110 cheaper. PLZ PIN THIS SO OTHERS DON’T GET SCAMMED
Does 4k 60hz limitation mean you cannot use your 240hz 4k and are actually limited to 4k 60 ingame, or does it mean it only updates the colours at 60 fps instead of 240 fps (If your monitor supports 4k 240 that is.)? Because as amazing as this honestly looks, I do not want to be limited ingame to only 60 fps, if my new 4k monitor supports 240 hz, thanks!
Definitely been using govee and recommend it to anyone in search rgb lights. Have it around the room, desk, tv and inside my car. Thanks for doing a review on this unit and answering the one question I had about the HDMI. Phillip hues tried this before but it scaled down the refresh rate really bad. Glad govee has created something much better.
I read this syncbox works with Dreamscape. Will the AI function work with all lights around the room paired with Dreamscape? Also, do you need the camera or will the light work by decoding the HDMI input signals alone?
I want to add more and more to my setup but then i look at the cables and my lazy mode kicks in and im like i dont need that shit, its really only to make it look pretty for ppl to like it!
If I just bought the sync box and then purchased the light bars separately they’re still compatible right?? Really wanna buy this right now just need to know if the light bars will sync with it being as I already have the light bars with the smart controller
No 2.1 hdmi support is the deal breaker, it's the same reason I haven't brought a philips hue, my monitor and gaming consoles/PC support it and having some fancy backlights aren't worth the downgrade
So as i understand correctly… you have to put the HDMI from console like PS5 / XBOX into the center where the 2x HDMI ports was seen and then this input signal get transferred to the TV itself? Could please confirm me that as an example the 120 HZ on action shooter like Rainbow six siege won‘t get lost? Did the receiver transfer as well the 120 HZ refresh rate?
Hello, I have a problem with the package and hope you can help me. I set everything up as shown, the lighting stays white. Even if I turn on the aimode, the lighting doesn't adapt to the game like lol. Does the bix have to be connected to the WiFi for this to work or what am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance for the help.
Anyone know how to purchase just the RGBIC lights that go on the back of the monitor. The one in the video fits a 27” monitor - and I can’t find that anywhere.
This is incredible! I have always wanted some background color behind the TV but this just changes the game experience. I feel like this really immerses you and takes gaming to the next level! Awesome review as always!
