LED Strip Light 9.8Ft Music RGB USB Powered with APP Control, Backlight Kit for Flat Screen TV/PC

I bought two of these, one for my 40" Samsung tv and one for my desk.I'll start with the tv. I bought the option that was supposed to fit up to a 47" tv, and it was just about perfect. Installation was very easy, I didn't even have to take the tv off the wall. I trimmed off a few inches off the end of the strip and it fit perfectly. The adhesive was not the best, but I just used electrical tape in the spots where the tape was weak. I really like that it turns on when I turn on the tv, and it remembers what color I had it set to when I turned it off. The color is nice, decent brightness. Nothing mind blowing, but for $12, it looks pretty good to me.For the desk, I ran the strip along the back of the desk and trimmed about 3' off the end of the strip. Ironically the adhesive on this one was very strong, so maybe the other one just didn't like the texture of the tv panel. The lights plug into my docking station which is convenient, and they stay on when I shut down my computer. I wasn't going for full on gamer/twitch streamer RGB, just wanted some ambient lighting while I work from home, especially since I don't have any windows in my home office. I think I achieved that.Lastly, the remote works fine. Just make sure you place the reciever in a spot that you can point the remote at it and it will receive the signal. On my tv, it just barely sticks out from the bottom of the tv and I can use the remote from across the room. The app is garbage, I took one look at it and deleted it.Overall, if you're looking to set the mood without dropping mad cash, these will do the job. Again, nothing spectacular, but for the cheap price, they worked better than I expected. I would buy them again.

I purchased two sets of these lights for both televisions in my home. The setup was very simple. For the less expensive tv, I just used the adhesive on the back of the lights and they stuck very well. For my expensive set, I used small command hooks to hold the strips in place just in case I decide to swap out the lights at a later date.The remote works well, I had no issues getting it to work. I just wish it had more choices for the color changing options.The app was very easy, both sets of lights automatically popped up within the app. I was able to rename each set to make deciphering which is which simple.If you are looking for an affordable set of lights with adjustable brightness for the back of your TV, I highly recommend this set. For maximum brightness, be sure to have your room as dark as possible. They did not disappoint.

I put up the 13-foot LED light strip in my kids' room to add some extra fun lighting, and I’ve got to say, it turned out great! The adhesive stuck really well, so no worries about the lights falling down, and the overall look is just awesome—definitely a hit with the kids. The only hiccup was getting the app to connect to the lights; it took a few tries, which was a little frustrating. But once it was all set up, it was totally worth it. The room has a whole new vibe now, and the kids are thrilled!

So far product is pretty good for the price. A few things to touch on:Remote is basic. I will not use it much. The app is pretty cut and dry. Takes a minute or two to learn it, but after that it is pretty simple. I really miss this not having white as a color option. All other colors are pretty good. The USB plug is durable, but I found that I needed electrical tape to help keep the led strip connected to the power connector.I would use these again as I do not find these items critical negatives. Plus the savings compared to competitors is great for general purpose lighting.

These have been on 24/7 since March 2020

Edit- someone associated with the vendor left a comment in reply to my review. This person either did not read my review or I suppose it's possible that I did not explain myself clearly- judge for yourself. I replied to clarify the problem with bluetooth is that NO Android device I own will pair. The rep pasted his first reply verbatim.If I could give zero stars I wouldI was looking for a near white color backlight for my TV. I wanted to be able to adjust warmer or cooler to suit the room lighting and TV image. These are not that. The color LEDs are not well balanced and the app does not allow for nearly enough fine tuning. The closest I could come to white was a washed out yellowish hue. The app is not well suited to fine grained control and the iPad/iPhone version does not render correctly making using what the color wheel allows you to do impossible.All this I could live with.The big problem is the app does not do well at all when linking to the BT light string. I tried 3 different Android phones- A Moto 5, a Moto 6 and a Samsung S7. None of them would hold link with the light string. The two Motos would not even connect at all. My iPad Air would connect, but the app was problematic. I got stuck for quite awhile with a sickly green backlight because I could not find a controller to correct it. Granted, this may be due to my RF environment but it was a significant issue.I would rather have had white LEDs with a dial to control intensity.To the good- physical installation was as easy and trouble free as advertised. The strips were a good length for my TV 60" and were easy to apply. The LEDs are sufficiently bright RGB units, and for those who want dynamic lighting effects I have no doubt they will serve well.Unfortunately the link issues render these pretty much useless for me.
