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 have to hook up with a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi community in an effort to achieve full performance. You should have restricted choices when on a 5 GHz community; there are additionally handbook buttons on the unit for pairing and energy, however these do not enable all the vary of choices obtainable 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 value remembering you are placing cash in direction of a high quality lamp and a high 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 exterior as it isn’t designed to face up to the weather.

I will additionally grant that, for some, all of the choices could be too overwhelming. To completely take pleasure in all the things the lamp gives, some effort and time ought to go into testing 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 need to do. And typically it would simply be simpler to go away it in a selected setting as an alternative of going by way of different choices. What makes it enjoyable also can at instances really feel like work; too many selections could be an excessive amount of time spent with the lamp. You possibly can 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 organising automated timers and most popular settings for fast entry.
