Smart lighting company Govee announced a new pair of ceiling-mounted smart lights at CES 2026<\/a>: the Sky Ceiling Light and Ceiling Light Ultra. The company says the former can \u201cmimic daylight in a natural way,\u201d giving the impression of a skylight. The latter is for the real Govee-pilled, thanks to a tightly packed array of 616 LEDs that lets it beam colorful, detailed images and animations at you from above.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve followed this company at all, you\u2019ll be familiar with these sorts of excesses. Take the Govee Net Lights<\/a>, which you can hang in a window or drape on a hedge to show colorful animations. The Ceiling Light Ultra is like that, except with more detail and crammed into a 21-inch-wide circle on your ceiling.<\/p>\n

Where the Net Lights create images with \u201cpixel\u201d density comparable to an NES game, this light appears capable of showing intricate color detail with smooth gradients. Owners can create imagery by querying a new set of generative AI models the company says it\u2019s adding to the Govee app soon, although the app still allows for manually creating animations or uploading GIFs to display, as it does for other Govee smart lights.<\/p>\n

When you just want it to be a basic light, the Ceiling Light Ultra produces light across a rather standard color temperature range of 2700K\u20136500K. Same thing goes for the Sky Ceiling Light, which is also 21 inches wide. Govee said in a press briefing leading up to CES that it is just like having a real skylight in your ceiling. We\u2019ll see if that feels accurate once the Sky Ceiling Light is available to test.<\/p>\n

Both smart lights will be Matter-compatible, so they should work with any major smart home platform. As usual, though, you\u2019ll need Govee\u2019s app to take advantage of their fancy effects. Govee hasn\u2019t announced specific release dates or pricing.<\/p>\n
