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

Excessive value and technical consideration

One clear draw back is marketed up entrance: you could connect with a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi community to be able to acquire 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 complete vary of choices out there to you.

The associated fee 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 would not have the compact measurement or portability that comes with Bluetooth audio system, and it should not go outdoors as it isn’t designed to resist the weather.

I will additionally grant that, for some, all of the choices will be too overwhelming. To totally get pleasure from the whole lot the lamp gives, some effort and time ought to go into trying out all the assorted combos it comes with. You will be controlling it principally by way of your telephone or voice, which I feel some customers will not wish to do. And typically it’d simply be simpler to depart it in a selected setting as an alternative of going via different choices. What makes it enjoyable also can at instances really feel like work; too many decisions will be an excessive amount of time spent with the lamp. You’ll be able to create your individual sample of colours, and whereas that could 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 organising computerized timers and most well-liked settings for fast entry.
