This is my 1st purchase of these lights. I purchased a few sets of atomi smart led a few years earlier so I can make a small comparison between those 2 companies.Atomi - heavier lights so they seem more durable. Never had one go out. These hung year round on my front porch. With the color themes I could change per season/holiday/event.The wire was heavy gauge. Make it good for durability but hanging was more of an issue. Thick like a pencil.The app was acceptable given the use but could use improvements. Kind if easy to have a timer or scene setting.The biggest issue. Connection to them was and is a pain in the ass. The 1st sets I wad able to connect after calling customer service. Worked great after that. NEEDS the lower wifi band. (2.8 I think it was) the higher band it didn't work. I have extenders and that had the band needed. I moved not long ago and tried to reconnect to the new router. Will not connect no matter what. I've tried everything but calling again.Long ago I had an issue and called. The company sent a full set to replace. I just opened to try then out and the bulb housing is smaller. Not able to purchase this lights again made me look at govee. The new set connected immediately when I 1st plugged in. So I have manual sets, all 3 and 1 that works wifi. Pointless.... currently these are unavailable.GOVEE - Smaller lightweight bulbs. They are BRIGHT. When I first plugged them in it didn't seem so great. Thats because the default was set to 60%. Nearly blinded myself turning them up.The wires are thin. Almost like Christmas lights that were coated with a rubber that made it a little thicker.The app. Oh the glorious app. I couldn't believe the control. You can select EACH light and change the color. Plenty of pre programmed scenes. My neighbors must have wondered what was going on since I was playing with the colors and scenes for 30 min and still had more to go. There's a music setting so the sound will trigger the lights to strobe. Someone had fireworks going off so it was a fun time to try.The "down side" was the plastic clips to hang the strands. Took a little time and measuring to keep them even. That's also the upside. You can make them short or longer pending preference.Given both companies I'd stay with Govee. Price and app were the best parts.24 feet of atomi were about $8096 feet of Govee was. About $100I'll try some more with the govee and edit later should I remember to come back.

Amazing lights. I ordered a non top shelf brand, and regretted it. Sent it back and got these. What a great decision. Their lights are the best quality you can get out there, by far. Quality is in their product as much as it is in their app, which is the part that shines. You aren't just buying lights, if you're buying this style, then you have to understand your buying the brands app too, and the app is key to using and playing around with the lights. Their app is amazing compared to all others I've seen. Very user friends and the amount of options are far greater than others. Yes, they're more expensive. But yes, they're much better. Absolutely worth the spend up people.
