What I did not like concerning the Govee Desk Lamp 2 Professional

Excessive price and technical consideration

One clear draw back is marketed up entrance: you have to hook up with a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi community with a purpose to achieve full performance. You’ll have restricted choices when on a 5 GHz community; there are additionally guide buttons on the unit for pairing and energy, however these do not permit your entire vary of choices obtainable to you.

The price could positively be a deterrent for some. A excessive price ticket means it is positively an funding, though it is price remembering you are placing cash in the direction of a top quality lamp and a top quality Bluetooth speaker. There are some limitations to the latter; it does not have the compact dimension or portability that comes with Bluetooth audio system, and it should not go outdoors as it is not designed to face up to the weather.

I will additionally grant that, for some, all of the choices might be too overwhelming. To completely get pleasure from every little thing the lamp provides, some effort and time ought to go into testing all the varied combos it comes with. You may be controlling it principally through your telephone or voice, which I believe some shoppers will not need to do. And generally it’d simply be simpler to go away it in a selected setting as a substitute of going by different choices. What makes it enjoyable can even at occasions really feel like work; too many selections might be an excessive amount of time spent with the lamp. You may create your individual sample of colours, and whereas which may be an thrilling possibility for some, that is an instance of an additional characteristic that I simply do not discover that compelling.

I would recommend studying about it upon buy and investing time establishing computerized timers and most well-liked settings for fast entry.
