The lights are great. The color is fantastic…. BUT this product is advertised as a “gaming light"and it doesn't even support Razer chroma?? that's the main reason I purchased it.
I love it. It works pretty darn good and definitely increases the immersion value. I put it up on a curved monitor which it says it really doesn't support but I made it work. Initially I had to have the light bars too close to my monitor becuase the desk was smaller. I just got a longer desk and was able to spread them out and it did make a nice difference. Takes a little tweaking to get the settings right - there are some good videos of people out there walking you through best practices. Definitely worth it if you are looking for fun light immersion to add into your gaming experience.
I like how the dream view can position other lights in the space. My monitor is too big for it to work great. Two because the side lights only work with unit and you can't buy new guides if you get a new monitor.
I ordered the G1 Pro kit direct. When it arrived I was surprised at the build quality, the cables are sturdy and flexible, the light brightness from each tower is very bright and installation was easy to. I appreciate the detail in the setup instructions for the camera calibration. The Govee app works as it should and is easy to use.
The new guide tracks have a rubber piece held on by adhesive, and I've used my lights a lot and most of those rubber pieces have come off. Not to mention the camera is extremely finicky and I have to constantly keep adjusting it because the spring action pulls the camera back from the position it was resting in. The slight heat can cause the adhesive to slip so I ended up taping a bunch of them down. I figured the price point would justify itself but as of right now that is clearly not the case. I have made the lights able to pass, they look great but because the back of my monitor is slightly variable, I had to make some loopholes.
It looks quite good only problem is is that you have to manually calibrate it so it will show the colors right but sometimes it can even do the right colors but good lighting and good product over all lights up the whole wall almost. One thing is if you are looking for precise colors and easy Calibration don't be lazy take the time to make the colors right.
