How do you get your t1s to percive black? I have a problem where if there’s any black on the screen it dosent actually turn black or dim ,it stays the color it’s last seen there or a like whitish color
holy crap a real person on camera and not an ai voice - thank you
Happy to oblige ;)
Pro Tip: skip using the foam blocks and just pull up a youtube calibration video that already has the spots marked for you
what video, you have link?
@@Vamgothic69 it's literally posted on the Govee youtube channel...just search "govee camera calibration"

Love you
This is the best Govee TV backlight review! Thank you so much for this! I will be waiting for the T3 Pro and I'm looking forward to your review!
Glad you enjoyed the review! Thanks for watching, and for your comment!
do u know how long it will take?
Haha, I was like 2001? This must have been revolutionary for its time!!! Great video, thanks!
Now that would have looked cool on a CRT television! 😅
T3 light seems like its the most accurate esp if you own an OLED to match the black / off portions of the display
I have t1 dream view and have had them for a while, getting a new tv and I need to get a new set for the new tv which is bigger. I am leaning t2, as you said I cannot imagine watching tv without these anymore. Especially movies.
Thanks, that was a great overview and exactly what I was looking for. I will likely be ordering the T3 Lite for my son's gaming room and will use the affiliate link.
Thanks! Appreciated! And glad this was of help!
Nice review, I have a question if you don't mind, some movies have black stripes at the top and the bottom.how does the camera react?
Thanks for the comparison. Really great info. I appreciate it!
There was also the P1 and P2 before these models came out from Govee. Govee is the king of SKUs and product confusion.
Great review!
Thank you for comparing these, very, very helpfull.
Glad you found this useful!
Prime day is right around the corner and was hoping for the t3 Pro until then.
Always held back with these, but years later, I still ahve to urge to get it, so I'm pulling the trigger. Waiting for the T3 Pro though. I already ahve Govee LYra lamps so I am hoping top combine them! You have any experience linking it to other govee products?
It seems to me that the corners are not illuminated by the actual colors but stay "dark". I suppose that the rgb strips don't go all around the back of the tv. Is there any product that is "better"?
Can you explain why my camera catch the full screen perfect, however im not even close to se the full affect when i do a color teast with colors running arround the screen. I calibrated perfectly and the shows the full screen however the colors dont match or even show in a color wheel etc...
How do you turn them on? Do you have to keep getting your phone out and turning them on / off as well as the tv?
Can you also set the warmwhite and other colors as passive so a steady light? Not watching movies a dim light behind the screen is what i want.
Nice review, thanks alot
What is the name of the video you're playing on your screen I'd love to try it with my t3 lite that just delivered today
Thanks! Search on TH-cam for Ambilight Test, you'll find those videos
Can you help I haven't manage to turn off the led when the tv is black
I was lookin for plug & play leds for my tv. govee seems way more simple! Compared to others, i haven't bought one yet, wish fancy leds box was internal for tv apps. Govee is winning in my judgment
I have the T1 and have been considering upgrading. I’ll wait to see what the T3 pro offers. Thanks!
I’d do the same! Thanks for watching
I just ordered the T1 because it was on sale at Target. I know it's the earlier model, but I hope I'm pleased 😊
Update: I'm very pleased with the T1! It's amazing. Can't imagine how good the others are!
Update #2 It definitely has a quarter second of lag. I like it, but get the T2 if you ballin 🤣
Ive been having issues getting my T3 to do 2+ colors. It either stays as the first color shown, or goes all white. Ive seen people do color wheels and the three colors rotate with the wheel, mine stays one color.
Really helpful review, thanks. Will check out the affiliate links you provided (but might not be purchasing yet...)
BTW I saw in another T3 (i think) review, that the LED strips don't go right into the corners of the screen, meaning the coverage there isn't so good. (I see it slightly in your setup, but in the other review it was really noticeable.)
What's your take on that? Is that something you've noticed? I've got a 65" so there won't be any slack on the LED strips.
Thanks
Not at all--but this could very well be because I have the larger strip (75"-85"), and my TV is a 70" (which is a lost spot there; they have 55"-75" or 75"-85". Decided to go bigger, but there was no issue with extra slack at all).
And thanks for your support with the affiliate links--anything you purchase on Amazon within 24 hours of clicking will potentially support the channel with a small commission--so thanks for that, much appreciated!
@@RawansReviews
Thanks, will check measurements and see if I can go a size bigger without having too much LED to deal with.
This is the other video that lacked coverage (IMO) in the corner areas. th-cam.com/video/o14p1EdXNt8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=XAmC8TeV3uvbTD0w
Not sure why you would want to see it, but anyway....
@@theonlyrick Took a quick look at the video, indeed doesn't quite reach the corners. Does he mention his TV size? If it's any help; the T1 that I had for a while now is the 55"-65" version (they didn't initially have a larger version), and my TV is a 70". So it definitely doesn't cover all edges, but I didn't find that matters much. Light spreads out, so the visual experience I felt was not much impacted (depends how far your TV is from the wall as well I would imagine). Hope this helps!
@@RawansReviews 👍
Question. Could I use a Govee SyncBox with the T2 or T3? I run everything through my Apple TV, so not worried about other sources.
Not an expert here, but if you have already the syncbox I think having the cameras have no purpose.
Hey, does it also work if my wall on which the TV hangs is dark green (almost black when it is dark in the room) or does it only work with bright colors like white?
I haven't tried that, but if I was to guess, it should definitely work. The color accuracy might be a bit off on a green wall, but again if I was to guess, I would say it should still be an enjoyable experience.
Hello, 8:30 ... how did you make lights go all black during black scenes? MineT2 always a little bit shines during black scenes.. Thanks for answer.
Try turning relative Brightness down to 5%
@@mylesmunday357 I have it on zero.

Yeah, mines does the same issue. I think that when there is just a black color on TV it’s a stage red or purple unless there’s an actual color difference but it doesn’t dim
Great Video ! Does this thing work with a dark Stonewall as background ?
Haven't tried that--but if I were to guess, I'd say the effect might be a bit less, but you should still get a decent experience.
My T3 lite performs completely different from the way the one in this demo does. I feel like something happened with your calibration or maybe they had a software update in between this review and when I installed mine. It was especially noticeable during the demo around the six minute 30 second mark. I play that same demo on my TV and the colors are so much more bright and the device reacts way faster and more profoundly, especially with the colors close to the edge of the screen.
Do they have a release date yet on the T3 pro? I was thinking of buying the T2. Should I just wait?
I did expect the T3 Pro to be out already by now, but haven't gotten any updates on expected release time. Will reach out to Govee again and report back if I get any news.
T3 for me
Hello. Great video and very informative. I have just switched from the t2 to the T3 light. I switched mostly because of my massive frustration that I could never seem to get a proper red color and it was always displayed as a light pink. I have gone through so many tutorials and have never been able to find a proper way to fix this issue. I was hoping that it would have been different with my T3 lite, but even as I watch your video I see the Reds on the T3 lite are not really a full red on the spectrum as opposed to a lighter pink.
If you have any suggestions on how I could correct this I would greatly appreciate it. Nonetheless, great video and I'm now a new subscriber.
I have the T1 for years now i hide the camera on the bottom behind my center speaker of my 5.1 system! My colors look great overall but my question is can you put the camera of the T3 light on the bottom or does it have to be on top of the screen???
No the T3 can only be placed on top of the TV, at least officially speaking.
@@RawansReviews and unofficially speaking😀?
@@thomaskane9718 Well I didn't test it unofficially speaking, so can't speak to that. In theory it's supposed to be on top. Whether it is possible to tweak it in a way to put it on the bottom, could be...
@@RawansReviews Of course it can be on the bottom as well. Just what is right is left and vice versa. Because if you think about it, what is the difference between the top and the bottom?
Answer, if you cannot sense the gravitation, then nothing. The other thing to think about is the angle of the camera, you have to make sure the angle is correct.

Does T3 Lite happen to sync with Govee’s smart light bulbs? I’m getting mixed answers about their newer devices no longer syncing with all their other ones.
For anyone wondering: yes, it does. But the light bulbs can no longer be used individually as they become a part of DreamView.
It takes more than just money to build yourself a character thats worth talking about

I like my T1 a lot, picked it up for real cheap a while back since the t2 was out already. I'm waiting for the T3 pro or whatever it will be, to upgrade.
If you had to pick between T1 and T2 which would you pick?
I have the T1, no matter how much calibration or adjustments, it doesn't remotely do what some videos show, usually only picks up the color directly under the camera, get T2 or better
I’d go with the T3 ;) but if the choice is between T1 and T2-tough one-but I probably would do T2.
@@RawansReviewst1 is 118 T2 is 149 ( just released here). I have t1 but can return for T2 or wait till t3 comes here…
@Katlinwho T2 Pro should come out soon. If you can wait, I’d wait for that
@@RawansReviews thank you so much for your help! I didn’t know a T2 pro was coming. Sometimes Australia is weird lol this is the model number available here H605C111
Any chance this work with 32inch monitors?
It might be too small. Though I believe they later released with the T3 Lite a smaller version for 40" TVs. You could give that one a try.
I have the t1 on an 82-in Samsung and I'm getting an 85-in Samsung I am now moving the t1 to my basement TV my '82 inches dead and I'm getting the t3 for the new 85-in. I figure new TV new lights
I wonder when the t3 pro is hitting the market. I just purchased the t3 lite from Amazon, so I'm still in the return window. I just hate how it displays blues in black areas of the screen. It has a hard time displaying yellows, and the light shades of blues are way off. Also I could never get the camera to register the screen 100 percent actually. The best I could achieve is accurate on all sides to 2 inches fro. Edge minus the very middle of top and bottom. It's like it doesn't have enough leds to display the full gradience? Other than that it's an Awsome product.
I'm just really picky, to the point that I actually measured my tv to make sure the camera was dead centre at the top. Lol
I have the same problem and I can’t stand it. I’ve calibrated it a numerous amount of times and it’s still not perfect, and the colors, specifically the whites aren’t accurate at all
@@opmkai yah I've given up on it and accepted it. If watching movies I 2ill put it into the one color mode (all) and movie mode. If it's a music video or animated movie I'll put it in game, part, and set saturation to 20, white balance to 39, relative brightness to 100, and brightness to 71 percent. Also make sure the camera groove is at a 90° angle so the actual arm ends up sticking up wards a bit. It's not perfect but it's goodenough. I aols set my tv to hdr mode and neutral warmth. I'm addicted to the dream view. I hope in the future they offer to purchase just the upgraded camera although I've noticed that the two strips I bought to put above and below the tv have much better colors.
@@mrchrisknight315your brightness settings are all fucked that’s why it doesn’t look right fyi
69usd for the 3 lite was nice. Just wanted a litle pop in the picture not to much
Waiting for when they make one with a sensor hanging from the top
Question: do only certain lights work with certain models? I bought the 3s and can’t seem to sync any lights to it
What are your trying to sync to them?
@@RawansReviews I originally bought the 75-85” smart tv backlight 3’s’ from Best Buy and some light bars but couldn’t get them to sync. The sales guy helped me do research and said I needed either the 3 lite (w/o the ‘s’), or the T1, T2 models for them to sync with . I’m super confused and tired of having to buy and return , this is already my third time
Would this work ok with a cheaper tv like the onn Roku 55”
Yes should work with any TV!
great content, suprised so few followers?
Thanks! I do my best with the content, but the journey of growing my follower base has been a long and painfully-slow one 😅 🤷♂️
what was the film showing looks badass
That was Avengers Infinity War
2:35 2001? I’m guessing you meant 2021?
Yes yes--that was a blunder. I did mean 2021.
Still waiting on the T3 pro
You and I both ;)
T3 is now for me 88 pounds vs T2 is 129 just wondering
2:40 they released them in 2001 and 2002?!
*2021 and 2022. I added a comment in the description rectifying the blunder
I just can’t with the camera on top. It is so distracting. I would 100% just figure out a way to put it on the bottom as a I can’t stop looking at it
Wall near Tv: T3
Wall far away from TV: T2 😉
Not at all--all 3 were installed simultaneously, and the TV never moved afterwards.
When will TV manufacturers just build this in to TV's
They have a tv like that out already
Philips Ambilight TVs have that, but agreed would be nice to see other manufacturers implement that too
PLEASE Dont use this Foam Pads!!!! Here is a Video that you can Pause and Calibrate your Govee Cam this way otherwise you can Damage your Display. @RawansReviews And all other People.
The brightness of the T2 is the reason why the color is not accurate imo. Even the T3 should lower the brightness a lot in my experience. ☮️
Or just buy a Philips with the ambientlight technology
But for those who already have a TV they don't want to replace quite yet, this might be a good retrofit ;)
Man the t2 showed wasn't right no way my T2 was so much better then what you was able to show off t2 is a better option then 3t lite
T1 2001? T2 2002? Huh??? Lol
Oh boy… that was supposed to be 2021...2022..! 🤦♂️😂
@@RawansReviewsI was going to say …. 2001?! HAHA
