It does not need an additional HDMI device to capture the picture, so it is not tied to a particular TV input.
How picture synchronization works
The camera captures the screen, and the system uses that image to control lighting effects behind the TV. The backlight can add to the atmosphere when watching films or playing games.
One advantage of the camera-based approach is that the video signal does not need to pass through an additional HDMI device. However, the camera must be mounted on the TV, and its readings may be affected by ambient lighting. The available information does not specify the camera’s quality or its accuracy during fast-changing scenes.
Not needing an additional HDMI device does not mean the system is completely wireless or that it works without its other components.
New chip and performance
The backlight uses a new chip with a claimed 20% performance increase over the previous generation. The extra performance may help control lighting effects, but the percentage alone does not show how much faster the backlight responds to the picture. No specific performance metric or comparison model is given.
Smooth synchronization matters particularly during dynamic film and game scenes. The stated chip performance figure is not enough to determine the exact response speed.
Controls and Matter support
Govee TV Backlight 3 Lite can be controlled through the Govee app, Google Home and Amazon Alexa, including by voice. This means users do not have to control the backlight only at the TV.
Govee planned to add compatibility with the Matter standard through a firmware update in the first quarter of 2024. Matter is intended to make smart-home devices easier to connect, but the available information does not confirm whether the update was released or which Matter features are currently available.
