Pros & Cons
Pros
Brightness is 4/5 because it’s not the brightest i have seen. Deep colour tones which look to be uniformed all the way along the strip. A similar strip i have of a competing brand (and half the price) does to white as you can remove the colour saturat... Read More
Great quality and lovely colours. Only negative is that 5m is quite short - i think in my case most scenarios would be more ideal at 15m.
These lights will force you into the murky world of smart home technology. Their own app is also a little limiting but works well when the connection is in a good mood to play. It would be nice to see them be compatible with the generic smart home app... Read More
Using the meross app' is very simple and the brightness, colours and some preset modes can all be selected there. The lights remember their last setting so once you've set the style there's no need to revisit the app to change again.
The strip light adhesive is superb as well, made by 3m who are renowned for producing excellent adhesives/tapes etc. The box also contains five fixing clips and a connector. The stickiness of the tape is good.
Cons
Mirror lights flashed earlier in the night and then went off, so i suspect the control box is fried. Meross technical help is via e mail only which means i have to wait for a reply before returning to site (30mins drive to get there) to instigate they... Read More
Highlights
Quality
This light strip gets 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ all day long and i love the quality.
5cm with 3 x high quality multicolour led chips, 3 x warm white chips and 3 x bright white led chips between each 12.
It’s also slightly frustrating that the product comes with two strips but only one connector.
Packaging/appearance
The light is easily added through the homekit app simply scanning the qr code you can then name and add your lights to a room/scene.
Competitiveness
Much better than the other offerings in a similar price.
These meross lights are great quality and you get everything you need included in the box.
No remote as this has its own apps and homekit, alexa, google control.
As usual with meross products, ensure you don't have a 5ghz wifi bonded onto the 2.

I wish that it was a little bit more gradual in changing colour and brightness because it just kinda instantly changes colour and when you turn them off or on they cut outin instantly unlike the hue strips

But i was sick of buying hue because they would break so often

If you’re putting these on the ceiling or top of the wall you will need to figure something out or look for an extension because the cord is only like 2ft long

They stick okay to a clean surface… however they do buzz when they are switched in which really does become annoying

Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Can’t find a way to purchase just another connector anywhere so i’m stuck with lots of spare light strip that i can’t use

So i’ve dropped a star for that reason
