Honestly, the only use I can see for something like this is for scenes with lightning, explosions, gunshots, etc. Everything else is just a distraction, and doesn’t feel immersive to me at all, which is supposed to be the point of this right?
you gotta love the technically inept, " the $60 led kit isn’t as bright as the $1k Phillips TV" or I think my favorite is "you’re way behind the curve, they make a way better $300 kit", what I find amusing is you can tell by the comments that none of the idiots ridiculing this $60 system actually have any of the other expensive systems they say are better.
what even funnier is, people didn’t buy these non-invasive systems when they could and now the only way you can get something like it is to buy one of the amazon or google invasive systems that have a microphone and require a cellphone connection so they can ease drop on you then flood you phone with advertising which relates to the information they acquire from the ease dropping, the morons are to stupid to realize they are actually bugging their own homes……
It’s $70 now.
Whats the name of this product and where can i buy it?
Is this good to get in the mood for sexy time?
Where can I buy this
This is nowhere near as good as ambilight
I just bought a Philips 50in 4k HDR with 3 sided ambilight £400!😁
where to buy this? Please help or any DIY or upgraded version
You can NOT get it for screens under 55"
I asked a seller on ebay if it would fit on a screen under 55"
The seller said "I dont know for sure"
I the replied:
You dont even know what you are selling?
Seller then replied "Yes"
Govee has such incompetent salesmen that will also say about anything that will lead you to buying their product.
It is sad to see
a… CAMERA? ok no
You can get the full kit at this link: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33052919982.html
No solder, no setting, get the items and connect, you will get the ambilight on your TV.
I have suggestion, Mount the Camera on the bottom and you will never know it’s there.
Bro fuking buy a philips 350 dollar 4k hdr tv ambilight as the philips from video dont waste your money
Not near as smooth as the one from philips. Evene with a rasberry pi you can get better results
I am interested your video and would prefer to work with you, leave me your mail please
Great review! Would you have any idea how I could get this product in Australia? Also it seems to have been unavailable on Amazon for a while now
Nice video… Do you know if the camera can be Install on the Bottom (facing up) to capture the colors of the TV…..?
Comes in European version?
Damn. It doesn’t go big enough for a 100"
not great advice saying to lay the tv down as doing so on some flat screens such as plasma and LCD, the plasma will alot of the time leak out cause a discoloration that will only get bigger and worse and the LCD you can damage the LCD crystals on the inside..
Nice Chinese Spy camera 😉
This is not available any more. Do you have a link for any similar products please.
You showed absolutely nothing.
Forget about YouTube and Netflix – won’t work with these services!
So it’s no longer iHoment or Minger…it’s now GOVEE?
… also you wont get green. This item, as the "govee" LED isnt able to read green and yellow on most TVs. You only get a oretty laggy, blue and red dominated (… also you wont get green. This item, as the "govee" LED isnt able to read green and yellow on most TVs. You only get a pretty laggy blue and red dominated (mostly random colors generating) mood-light…
Would this also work on a blue / greyish wall? Or would the colors loo unnatural?
I prefer paying $60 and have a little camera sticking out instead of paying 400-500$
Hi…did it work with an av Receiver ….i have everithing plugt into my av Receiver…fire tv… ps4….xbox one and the mac mini.
And one hdmi goes to my tv so can i plug this ambient device between my av Receiver and my tv?
Excuse me for my horrible Englisch 😂😂
Any way to get it in Greece? @goovesmart
I cant get it through amazon, it doesn’t support shipping to greece
To bad Philips apps are so bad if not and using the android version it was a must buy!
my ambilight cost 30$ but ok
It would be great if you guys did sell this item. I guess it didn’t work since it doesn’t sell anymore.
The version with the camera with video mode I cannot find anywhere in the UK. There are other versions of govee with music mode. Need to find one
Mmmm.. Nope! No camera for me.
Just save up for a real ambilight tv. This is just… no.
Until you can place the camera under the TV looking up (eg: on the tv units surface), so it’s far more subtle, not interested…
Hello what IS thé référence if this model please!
I have a 48 inch TV will this kit work with my TV or is there a smaller kit that I need to get and if there is to you have a link
Great Video. I really felt you gave an honest opinion. Not just a shill reviewer for free stuff
Can i buy a better camera, like a webcam from logitech or something else and replace and use it with govee for better result?
Amazon says out of stock, where else can I find this?
Nice video bro. I have done the same cheap setup https://youtu.be/JcLc13WhfKo hope you`ll like it. Also i added the list of all components and links
What’s the background called?
Never see how you instale the lights. Just big butts. Oops. Bad video. Make it ones
How much did they pay u for this video? This is not even close, the brightness is so dim that it wont even make a difference, and has a goofy camera on top. Let alone compare it to Ambilight.
LOL "compared to the Philips Ambilight" (not Lightberry), "there is a delay, but… not so big", "well, you may notice that the colour are not accurate… but… eh, you know…"
Ambient
Hey man its not available on amazon anymore?
