      OSRAM, the german company behind that Sylvania (never heard that name in Germany) will discontinue their smart-lights.
      "Osram nimmt am 31. August 2021 die Lightify-Cloud vom Netz. Verbundene Smart-Leuchten verlieren zu diesem Zeitpunkt einen Großteil ihrer Features. Sie können zum Beispiel nicht mehr von Assistenten wie Alexa und Google Assistant gesteuert oder in Gruppen genutzt werden."

    I went with Hue and have been pretty happy with them. I use "white" more often than color so makes sense for me. I also like all the Hue accessories like the battery-less wall switches. Having physical controls that don't need batteries is the way to go. Using an app on your phone is fine for special effects etc. but for daily use it's not workable. You don't want to have to stop what you are doing and pull out your smart phone just to walk into a room, read a book, cook something, etc. You just want to hit a switch on the wall like your regular lights. No batteries = no stress. Best system IMO for real world lighting in the average home or workspace.

    Thank you for taking all of the time to do all of the testing for all of these LED strips! We're building a new house and planning on doing about 75ft of LED strips on the main floor, including under and above kitchen cabinets, and in aluminum channels with diffusers along the edges of rooms. I've narrowed it down to Lifx, TP Link, and Govee. I can't seem to find TP Link strips that are long enough, and Lifx is insanely expensive at that length. Do you think the Govee RGBWW would be bright enough for under cabinet lights?

    Excellent and informative content as usual. My name is not Hibbert, I have more Hue strips than I'd like to admit, and since I use them more for RGB than white I'm usually disappointed with their performance. It's great to know how the others perform before buying into another platform. Any plans to review RGB downlights anytime soon? Currently have a few Sylvania Osram Smart+ fixtures that aren't the greatest with colors.

    The only negative about the Govee Dreamcolor is the thick silicone waterproof coating (impossible to install clean right angles) and there are no compatible connectors as it’s 12 volt based but only has 3 connectors, so don’t think you can get them and cut them and re-use the leftover. It’s extremely bright and super vivid though and the interchangeable strips are now available for the WiFi version now because I have them. I must say it’s incredible and they’re awesome. Built very well. They’re just not the best for bedroom wall use as the limited flexibility comes into play. I’m going to add on the standard smart Govee RGB to my setup since they’re more flexible and compatible to 4 pin connectors unless I can come up with a solution for the 3 pin Dreamcolor version because it is the bomb

      I got some for my birthday weeks ago and they stick like a charm. Nothing was wrong with them at all. If you have semi-new paint and/or old paint with drywall underneath I would recommend not putting the lights on it because it will destroy your drywall where you stick the adhesive. The adhesive is very strong. If you have a molding around your door or closet, i recommend putting it on the molding. Hope this helps 😊

    Great video on indoor light-strips. Can you do one for outdoor lights for the holidays? And yes, include if they can be used in cold weather areas like the midwest. I have not seen many that will work with music and Alexa.

    Why do we always look at these informative videos after we've purchased them!! Lol
    If it had been the other way round, I probably would have went with the govee lights rather than joining the expensive Philips Hue ecosystem!
