The Govee TV Backlight Is a Hit, Amazon Is Clearing Out Stock Just 3 Days Before Memorial Day Sales
TV watching is great but if you prefer a truly immersive experience, there's one addition that can have a massive impact on the ambiance in your living room: a TV backlight. Until you've tried it, it's hard to express how much of an enriched, color-matched shine can suck you into your favorite movies, and games. This Memorial Day, the Govee TV Backlight 3 Lite is on sale on Amazon for just $74 (down from $89) which makes it the perfect time to discover what you've been missing. See at Amazon This Govee TV backlight is not just another LED strip: At the heart of this system is Govee's upgraded Envisual Technology. The new chip delivers better performance and thanks to its innovative fish-eye correction function, it can accurately capture and match the colors at the very edges of your TV screen. This means the backlight doesn't just mimic the general tones of what you're watching: it extends the action and atmosphere right onto your wall. One of the technical innovations is the 4-in-1 lamp bead design: Unlike ordinary RGB strips, Govee's RGBICW technology comes with an added warm white chip in particular. This allows the backlight to produce an authentic white tone and more saturated and authentic colors across the spectrum. The higher pixel density also allows for seamless and precise changes of lighting so that you have uninterrupted washes of color that exactly frame the on-screen action. With Govee DreamView synchronization, you can link up to seven other Govee lights in your room or throughout your house. This makes a 360-degree surround lighting atmosphere so your entire space is responding in harmony with your TV. It's an effect that must be experienced to be believed, particularly if you're hosting movie night or gaming marathon parties. Compatibility never is a problem, either. The 3 Lite automatically captures the color of any TV content lag-free and with no compatibility hassles. Smart activation places control at your fingertips whether with the Govee Home app, which provides access to over 99 pre-set light effects, black bar removal, blank screen detection, and more. Want hands-free control? The system harmonizes extremely with Alexa and Google Assistant. If you want to make your TV watching experience downright unforgettable, this is the upgrade you need.

Apple TV's wireless audio sync now works with Dolby Atmos
Apple is pushing a new software update for Apple TV today that includes a useful feature for home theater setups: the ability to automatically calibrate the synchronization of Dolby Atmos surround sound audio with your speakers. The new tvOS 18.5 update enhances Apple's existing Wireless Audio Sync feature, introduced in 2019, that lets you use your iPhone's microphone to calibrate audio sources with your home theater speakers. Now it can help you get your TV video synced up with Atmos audio over either AirPlay or Bluetooth by accounting for latency. After updating, you can calibrate your audio by going to Settings > Video and Audio > Wireless Audio Sync on your Apple TV, and following the steps from there.

Panasonic's flagship 65-inch OLED has a $700 discount today
It's been a minute since Panasonic TVs were available stateside, so you can imagine our excitement when the Panasonic Z95A Series 4K OLED hit shelves several months ago. We were able to test this North American comeback model, and our editorial team said, 'Stunning picture and shockingly good sound help make the Panasonic Z95A one of the top 5 TVs we've ever reviewed.' This week, when you purchase the Panasonic 65-inch Z95A, you'll pay a discounted price of $2,500 plus tax. That's a $700 markdown from the TV's original price! Why you should buy the Panasonic Z95A Series The Panasonic Z95A is one of those glorious flagship sets that endures every single test-bench procedure near-flawlessly. This 4K OLED has a wide color gamut, especially when watching movies in HDR. Expect rich, lifelike colors and the kind of inky black levels Panasonic plasma TVs used to be known for! The Z95 has great glare and reflection handling, too, and can get bright enough when watching SDR content to go up against ambient light sources in your living room or home theater. It also has a native 144Hz refresh rate and a boatload of gaming optimizations, including a dedicated True Game picture mode for improved response time and reduced input lag. You may have noticed the giant speaker system built into this TV. It's actually a full-on Panasonic 5.1 soundbar with an integrated woofer that punches well above its weight class. Apps, screen mirroring, and smart home controls are available once the TV is connected to the Internet, with Amazon's Fire TV OS running the show. The ads are a bit annoying, but other than that, it's a rock-solid smart hub! Save $700 on the Panasonic 65-inch Z95A Series 4K OLED when you purchase today.
