One of these new devices is the Floor Lamp T1, which trades the look of a typical lamp for an LED-equipped pole attached to a base. 6 feet tall, offering RGBIC lighting and 18 individually addressable zones.

Similar to the floor lamp from Govee, Aqara’s new device emits light in the area surrounding it, creating a splash of color on your wall. Aqara is getting into smart lighting for the outside of your home as well.
