The adhesive backing is a problem; the lights look good, but considering the cost, it’s a waste of money because the adhesive used is terrible. Even after thoroughly cleaning the TV—and mine is brand new—the lights still peel off. I’m disappointed, as other products you sell are good, but the adhesive on this one is awful.
I bought a Govee tv backlight for my previous tv and when I upgraded my tv to a bigger screen I needed to get the backlight for my specific size tv! The backlight adds another dimension to your viewing experience, however I found the calibration a little tricky. It was difficult to visualize the orange markers that you place on your tv for calibration. Wish that part was easier!
Definitely worth it for the price though sometimes it doesn’t capture those colors more on the red side it’s more blue. There is a color calibration in the app that definitely helps but colors like purple and pink aren’t captured that well. Nothing wrong with the LED or anything else actually. Definitely recommend you won’t find anything better for this price range.
Pretty simple to put on the tv the only concern is I feel like the blue color is off, I have tried changing a few different settings but it’s still the same
The reason I am not rating this higher is because the Govee app prevents me from using the TV Backlight to its fullest capacity. This is my first Govee product, however I have also been using a Philips Hue light system for years so I'm very familiar with how home lighting control systems work. The difference in apps is that Hue has never asked me for my precise location, nor my wifi password. There is no need for me to be giving away my personal information like that. If Govee found a different way to operate its app I'd be able to give a more thorough review. I did give it location permission when I was setting it up at first, and was able to play with designing static colors, patterns, and effects, which was fun and user-friendly. After that I disabled the permissions and disconnected the camera so that maybe someday if things change, I can put it to use with the rest of the package. In the meantime, I just turn the LEDs on & off from the back of the tv and have a lovely rainbow chase run continuously.
My only other critique is that the camera mount doesn't really fit the contour of my tv and there's no way to really adjust it. It's just balancing in place with that double-stick tape on the top. It would be cool if there was more of a clamp-type mechanism.
I’m very happy with Govee TV Backlight 3 Lite. I have an older 55” TV and it syncs great! I followed the instructions on the interweb and it worked out really well. Set-up didn’t take very long, just some attention to detail and abracadbra! The lights are deep, bright, and vibrant. Great light-show!
