Govee’s CES 2025 show is all about using lighting for entertainment: Called “Bring Color to Daily Life,” Govee is showing off both improved AI-fueled smart lighting and new products that are perfect for PC users or gamers looking to brighten up their spaces — especially if you like to get creative.
First up is the Gaming Pixel Light, a colorful type of smart display meant to sit by your desktop PC or a similar location and, well, make things more interesting. The lighting panel can use its pixels to show up images or GIFs that you upload or allow you to sync it to music with a Govee sync box. It can even use its own speaker to play brief tracks and sync the lighting itself.
Govee also showed off ways you can connect the Gaming Pixel to online widgets so it can display basic info like the weather, the current price of a specific stock, scores for a current game and dozens of other possibilities.
For more general purposes, Govee is also releasing a Table Lamp 2 Pro with JBL speakers, sort of like a modern lava lamp designed to sync with whatever music is playing. You can also set colors or choose from 100 color scenes to show off — quite the dorm upgrade or a bright splash of color for special spaces. It works with Google Assistant and Alexa for voice commands and comes with Matter compatibility.
But what really caught my eye was Govee’s plans for Mini Panel Lights, smallish squares of lights designed to be snapped together into wall designs, which can flutter with color or build up a vivid, changeable picture. You can connect up to 120 of these little guys in whatever pattern you want, really letting your imagination run wild for decorating living rooms, bedrooms or, of course, gaming hideaways.
Throughout these new products runs Govee’s latest lighting effect technology, dubbed the AI Lighting Bot. It’s designed to learn how people like to customize their lighting effects and make adding new effects even easier. That tech works alongside Govee Dreamview, a mirroring technology that allows you to instantly set lights to mirror a specific image, color palette or set of sounds so you can get just the experience you’re aiming for.
Govee isn’t currently releasing price information for its new lights, but the company plans to start shipping products like the Pixel Light and Tablet Lamp 2 Pro in the second quarter of 2025. I’ll keep you updated when I’m able to experiment!
