Govee TV Backlight 3 Lite 2.4m for 40-50 Inch TVs

Govee makes good stuff. It’s in the mid range price wise, but having cheaper backlights these make it worthwhile. Installation is not too hard but a bit fiddly for some. The instructions are very good but this isn’t just a stick it on scenario. There are a few steps to install and calibrate but the app is excellent and talks you through it all. Once calibrated and set up, you can just let it do its thing. The app is for minute settings which most won’t worry about. Govee apps are always excellent. The effect is just amazing to see. You really have to experience it. Some wonder if it’s off putting. It’s not, it just blends in to the TV screen. What isn’t mentioned is it doesn’t just copy the colour on the edge. It’s AI decides the best surround colours. A snow scene with some greenery, it’ll create a full crisp surround colour with a spot of green. A desert scene, it creates a full surround of orange and yellows. In other words, it makes the surround match the whole scene, not simply copy the edges. In some scenes? If it’s a forest with an orange sky, it will create extended edges of green and blend into the blue and orange of the sky. In less detailed scenes, it works it out and the results are beautiful. Again you have to see it. One tiny critique is for wall mounts the box will be behind the TV so for very flat, flush finishes you may need to think about it. You could have the box outside the TV frame, but you would need longer USB extensions. BUT as it connects to WiFi and has an app, you won’t need to touch the box after pairing and it can be hidden.

This lighting kit has been a major upgrade for my TV viewing experience and I would highly suggest investing in this as there isn’t anything like it. It’s great this kit works on all tv’s and most sizes and is very easy to install, the adhesive is strong and hasn’t failed yet, while my only complaint falls with the camera adhesive as that can be hard to line up and once you pull it off once it’s ruined so they should include a few replacements. The lighting quality is amazing and it looks sleek with only the camera standing out abit. You are able to control all of it through the app which connect over a 2.4ghz connection to your device and it has all the controls you need as well as in app support if you need any help so it has great connectivity. The colours are vibrant and you are able to tune them to your liking anyways and there isn’t much latency which you can notice so it’s all a pretty smooth viewing experience. It’s better if the background is a solid colour on your wall so that the colours can really bounce, and it should be close to the wall for the best experience.

Pretty good - I picked this up at a discounted price, just post-christmas after buying a new TV. I had the T2 version with 2 cameras on my previous TV (which was very good). The T3 lite is good, but not quite as good as the T2 in my view. Where the T2 had 2 cameras as opposed to the 1 fisheye on this one, it also had more LEDs (60 as opposed to 30 on this). As a result, the T2 had longer, nearly continuous LEDs all around the back of the tv with minor gaps between sections, on this, there are distinctive left,top, right bottom strips with larger gaps between them, so, not all of my (65" is lit). Also, the leds appear to be in "blocks" of colour, similar to the rgbic strip, rather than behaving independently as on the T2. I don't believe the fisheye camera is as accurate as the twin cameras on the t2, but it looks a little neater, I suppose I think that the above makes for a less accurate experience than the t2 but it still looks good, especially if you set it up as a hub and sync it with other Govee lights (I have the RGBIC+ strips). Connectivity was quite easy - once set up, the govee app spotted it and I was able to add it- alexa also spotted it, however my old T2 was set up as a hub/gateway in order to control other lights so I had to switch that back on to remove it so that I could set the T3 up to do the same thing. Control/config is done via the all encompassing Govee App and quite easy if you know what you're doing. Once added, you can use your voice assistant, and I believe that this one is also Matter compatible. In terms of physical installation onto the TV, each section is 3M self adhesive and it comes with extra clips to hold the corners in place. Even so, it's still starting to come unstuck on one of the corners, which is a little annoying. I have extra clips from another LED strip. so might employ one of those to see if it holds it. The camera perches/balances on top of the TV with a counterweight at the back (there is a sticky pad included, but didn't seem to want to stick to any part of the camera bracket. A wire from the camera then goes down the back of the TV to the control box (which needs to be powered with the bespoke power adaptor). The control box can also be stuck to the TV but mine just sits on the TV unit as the cable is just long enough. Given the price I paid, I'm happy, but I have learned since that there is a non-lite version of the V3 being released which will be better - and more expensive! I'd

Great effect . I changed my Ambilite tv and upgraded but still wanted active back lighting so I bought a set of govee back lights . Easy fit just don't rush and you can make it look like the lights are part of the tv and not just slung on . A bit tricky to set colours up for best effect but well worth a little effort .

The Govee TV Backlight 3 Lite with Fish-Eye lens has completely transformed my setup. Installation was straightforward, and once it was calibrated, the colours were incredibly accurate and reactive to what was on screen. The fish-eye camera captures the whole display really well, giving smooth, immersive lighting that makes films, gaming, and everyday viewing feel so much more dynamic. The Govee app is simple to use, with loads of customisation options, and the brightness levels are spot on. Overall, a brilliant upgrade that genuinely enhances the atmosphere without being distracting. Highly recommended.

I bought the 55”- 65” kit for my 55” TV however the LED strip that goes across the top was too long. I was going to return and get the 40”-50” one but that would be too short/not offering good coverage. So I had to create a loop to make it fit (which creates a slight shadow on the wall). The 3M sticky tape isn’t great but the overall quality of everything else is good. They give 10 clips to help creat extra security but 12 would be perfect and some fasteners to tie down the corner loops would have been great but none included. The set up isn’t rocket science but the app is confusing. I’m probably not getting the best results out of them but does the job. The camera response to colours is moderate don’t expect anything quick changing. The camera sticks out like a sore thumb and it’s hard not to notice it when viewing.

Upgrades your viewing experience completely! Always been a bit skeptical with LED strips as my past experience with them hasn't been great - mainly due to the sticky tape no longer sticking. However, Govee use 3M sticky tape which has incredible adhesion with no risk of sliding off from the back of the TV. I love the vivid colours and brightness of the LED strip and it's very responsive (almost immediately) to what is shown on the screen. The setup/installation was a little fiddly but just make sure you take your time with it. Must say, at the price of £89.99, I'm extremely impressed with it as the quality represents something which would be worth way more than the price I paid. All in all, I absolutely love this product! Brings gaming to a whole a new level

If you are looking to turn an ordinary living room television into a fully immersive, theatre-like experience, the Govee TV Backlight 3 Lite is an absolute masterclass in ambient lighting. While older camera-based backlights often struggled with accuracy and washed-out tones, this upgraded model completely fixes those pain points. It tracks your screen with incredible speed and accuracy, bringing movies, gaming sessions, and live sports right out into the room. ​Why this smart backlight system gets a solid 5 stars: ​Game-Changing Fish-Eye Correction: The standout feature here is the upgraded lens technology. Standard camera backlights often suffer from edge distortion, causing the LEDs to misinterpret colours at the far corners of the screen. Govee's brilliant fish-eye correction function rectifies this completely, flattening the camera's view so that the ambient light matches what's actually on your screen with pinpoint precision. ​Vibrant RGBICW 4-in-1 Lamp Beads: The brightness and colour depth of this 3.6m strip are phenomenal. By adding a dedicated white chip to the traditional red, green, and blue (RGBICW), the colours look incredibly rich, deep, and true to life. Pastel tones, bright explosions, and deep moody shadows are projected onto the wall behind your TV beautifully without looking artificial. ​Blazing Fast Screen Sync: There is virtually zero noticeable lag between the action happening on the screen and the light reacting on the wall. Whether you’re racing at 60fps on a console or watching a fast-paced action sequence, the seamless transition of light prevents any distracting delays and makes the screen feel twice as large. ​Significantly Reduces Eye Strain: Watching a bright television in a pitch-black room is a fast track to headaches and fatigue. By providing an automatic, responsive bias light behind the screen, this kit significantly softens the contrast for your eyes. It makes late-night viewing and long gaming marathons vastly more comfortable. ​Flawless App & Voice Control: The Govee Home app is incredibly robust, allowing you to fine-tune the calibration, adjust saturation, or switch to smooth music-sync modes for parties. It also integrates effortlessly with Alexa and Google Assistant, meaning you can dim the room and fire up the cinema vibes with a quick voice command. ​Neat, Low-Profile Hardware: The camera mount is slim and sits incredibly securely on top of 55-65 inch panels without obstructing the screen or looking like an eyesore in the lounge. The strip itself cuts to length neatly and features heavy-duty adhesive that won't peel off under the natural heat of the television panel. ​Final Verdict: This is easily the most cost-effective way to get high-end, responsive ambient lighting without paying the extortionate premium of a native sync-box system. The fish-eye correction elevates the colour tracking to a professional level, and the RGBICW beads provide unmatched vibrance. If you want to give your home entertainment setup a massive wow-factor, this is worth every penny. Highly recommended!

Geweldige achtergrond verlichting voor de tv. Makkelijk te installeren en veelzijdige functies om aan te passen naar keuze.

Great item, good quality, easy to set up and great effect when watching films

Does what is says on the tin, the camera does stick out. Calibration took some time and accuracy is ok but not brilliant.

What amazing TV RGB lights, they do the job incredibly well. I have honestly become a huge fan of Govee products and recently ordered their RGBIC Floor Lamp as well. These lights are absolutely superb for enhancing the atmosphere in your living room, bedroom, or TV setup.
