Reduceri de la Amazon Prime Day: The Govee Floor Lamp 2 is now available for $100 — representing a 33% discount or a savings of $65 — during Amazon’s Prime Day sale.

Govee has made a name for itself in the smart lighting business as an affordable alternative to other brands, like Philips Hue. So when I decided to upgrade my old traditional lighting to smart bulbs, panels and switches, the colorful Govee RGBIC Floor Lamp (replaced by the Floor Lamp 2) was an easy choice for my living room. Why? I wanted something vertical to fit nicely into the space and a look that’s different than a typical round smart bulb in your average lamp. 

At $165 without a discount, this tall and thin smart lamp is a bit of an investment, but it’s still considerably cheaper than a Philips Hue equivalent. Available in both silver and black, the Govee Lamp 2 is currently 39% off for Ziua Amazon Prime, bringing its price down to $100. While we’ve seen a deeper discount before, this model is newer and includes Matter support, higher lumen output and additional upgrades over its predecessor. 

Why I like this Govee light in particular

Like most smart lighting, the Govee floor lamp uses RGB LEDs to offer just about any color you want. My family chose green to complement the green in our living room, but it also changes depending on the time of day. What I enjoy about this lamp is its low profile: You can barely see it, just a small base and a thin line of metal. The focus is on the light rather than the structure.

Another big selling point is its connection to other Govee products. If you own the Govee Backlight for TVs, care CNET’s Russell Holly wrote about here, you can link up all your Govee lights to work in tandem as you watch a movie. Having all your lights working in sync with a movie like Dune or Mad Max: Fury Road is a lot of fun. Even without the backlight, a single app or Alexa and Google Assistant easily control all your lights.

Does the Govee floor lamp make a good gift?

As a big fan of Govee products, I think its lighting makes an excellent gift for others and yourself. If you know someone’s decor style well, the floor lamp would be an excellent choice since it has such a slim profile that would fit every room I can imagine.

Otherwise, an ultraportable, color-changing Govee table lamp that has both in-person tap controls and on-device app controls is also a big winner since the person lucky enough to receive the lamp can bathe themselves in the glow of pretty much any color combination and pattern they can imagine. There are also these Govee color-changing light bulbs that can spruce up virtually any compatible setting.
