Govee Alexa LED Bulb, Smart WiFi RGBWW B22 9W 60W Equivalent Bulb with APP Control, Work with Alexa & Google Assistant, for Bedroom Living Room

I bought this lamp after seeing reviews of it on YouTube. So I bought it and set it up which to be honest was easy, the 2700k (warm white), 4000k (Coolwhite), and the 6500k (Daylight) are great, some of the colours are ok, (yellow, orange, green, and violet), but when you go down the road of red, blue, purple, these seem dark in brightness. I expected these colours to be more vibrant but they are not, which to me is a great shame for something with so much promise. But if you factor in that other brands charge £25-£50 for these type of lamps then it kinda makes it worth the money. I don’t think you can buy a lamp that will do everything well, you just need to look at the lamp for your uses. Would I buy again and my answer is YES. You can buy a lot worse out there in the market. Spending more money on these lamps doesn’t mean they are better.

I already have a few Govee products and in general they are quite good , well made, reliable products. As per a previous review the real issue with this bulb is the brightness. When it’s on white and reading , the brightness is about 60 watts and as expected. The issue is when it’s on a colour at max brightness you hardly know the bulb is on. In a completely dark room with this on max brightness and coloured blue, you really can’t see your hand in front of your face. Last moan is that it is impossible to get this to work with Alexa . You need to control it through their app. Would I recommend this product, definitely not. I was on the verge of sending it back but just couldn’t be bothered with the hassle.

It came not working at all but then it started working after waiting for few hours and I spend 2 hours trying to set it up but it doesn’t connect on my wifi at all, tried everything like putting it near my router and nothing work so i returned it.

After reading some of the more recent reviews perhaps there has been a bad batch?When I received the light bulb there was difficulty in connecting it with my WiFi. Followed the instructions to the letter, and in the end I think it was just by sheer accident that it did connect. Everything was fine for a couple of weeks. Then one night I had it on a nice warm orange colour. Light started to flicker and went to a blue colour. Tried to change it back. Now don't get any colours apart from blue and green. Nothing else. At the time of sale I paid about £15 for a light bulb that lasted a couple of weeks. Really think about it before purchasing this light bulb. Disappointing.

Controlling the colour of the bulb helps change the mood of the room from a warm orange to a more relaxing blue. This bulb didnt consume as much energy as my previous bulb and the fact that I can even change the brightness from my phone made it easier to put my brother to sleep. First installation of the bulb was a bit tricky but once I learnt the first time it was not as hard to do the second. For the price of these bulbs its not a bad investment
