Smart lights are a great way to dip your toe into the world of smart homes. From simple smart bulbs you can turn on and off with your voice to complicated setups with strip lights to bring splashes of color to your gaming corner, you can create beautiful, colorful scenes with indoor and outdoor lighting. And you can manage and control everything from an app.
Govee, a global leader in the smart lighting space, showcased two of its latest innovative lighting products — the Govee Strip Light 2 Pro and the COB Strip Light Pro — at IFA 2024. Both feature a slew of hardware and software upgrades to let you build truly unique and personal lighting experiences. Here’s what you need to know!

The Govee Strip Light 2 Pro sets the standards for color performance with the company’s new LuminBlend™ Color Control System. The strip lights feature the G1151 16-bit color processing chip that Govee had developed in-house, along with five-color RGBWW LEDs. Combining the hardware with intelligent color blending algorithms, you will enjoy unparalleled color accuracy and dynamic lighting effects, even with lighter shades, to help you easily set the scene for any occasion.
Each meter of the strip is divided into 10 segments, and you can fully customize each to create unique and personalized lighting effects with 16 million settable colors available. Available in lengths up to 10 meters and cuttable in 10cm segments, you can easily build dynamic lighting scenes in any area of your house.

Creating your own lighting effects can be complicated. Govee helps out with over 100 preset scenes and 16 music modes, including exclusive LuminBlend Colors Lighting Effects. You can seamlessly transition between a variety of visual and artistic lighting effects, whatever the occasion, be it a raging party or a cozy night by the fireplace. The best part? You can do it all easily with a tap of a button in the Govee Home app. Of course, you can also connect with other Govee lights via the Govee DreamView system, so you don’t have to worry about out-of-place mixing and matching.
Once everything is set up, a simple voice command is all it takes to light up a room. While you can control everything from the Govee Home app, you also get support for Alexa, Google Assistant, and Matter for smart voice control. With a few taps or voice commands, you can change colors, adjust settings, and set up schedules.
Govee COB Strip Light Pro: Enjoy brighter, spotless, and fluid lighting effects

The COB Strip Light Pro is Govee’s first COB (chip-on-board) lighting solution and includes 1,260 LEDs per meter that are tightly packed together to create brighter and more fluid lighting effects. Encased in a silicone exterior, it provides a spotless and diffused light, perfect for surface-mounted installations.
With 12 customizable segments per meter and the ability to cut the strip into 8cm sections, you can trim the strip light and create unique lighting scenes that can fit any space, from the smallest nook behind your computer desk or monitor to complete border lighting in large living areas. It comes with RGBIC+W light beads, giving you the option of vibrant colors or bright white illumination, letting you create lighting effects to suit every need.

Managing and controlling everything is also a breeze with the Govee Home app, Alexa, or Google Assistant. Control colors, adjust the brightness, set effects, and easily switch between preset modes with just a few taps or voice commands.
