Xiaomi Yeelight Bedside Lamp

The lighting device from Xiaomi is positioned as a bedside smart lamp and is one of the bestsellers in its category.

The device has a cylindrical shape with a metal base and a matte plastic cover. The appearance of the lamp is quite versatile, so it will easily fit into various modern interiors, including hi-tech, minimalism, pop P/N And given the compactness and low weight (less than 700 grams), the lamp is easy to take with you on trips.

Filling

The basis of the device is an Osram LED module with 14 LEDs. Their total power is 10 W (maximum brightness 300 lm), which is equivalent to the operation of a 100-watt incandescent lamp. The working resource of the module is 20K hours.

Control Options

You can control the Xiaomi Yeelight Bedside Lamp using the sensors placed on the top of the lamp. There are buttons for turning on and changing modes, as well as a touch slider for changing brightness, colour temperature for white light (from 1700 to 6700 K) or backlight colour.

Thanks to the built-in Bluetooth module, additional control options open up from a smartphone or tablet. Using the Mi Home application, you can choose any colour from 16 million available, set different effects and lighting scenarios (for example, for watching movies, romantic atmosphere). In addition, in the settings, a timer for turning on the lamp is set, pairing with other devices is performed, for example, fitness trackers or Xiaomi smart home gadgets.

The control plugin interface in Mi Home is English. But there is also an alternative Yeelight application translated into Russian.

The shortcomings of Xiaomi Yeelight Bedside Lamp include a rather short power cord and the need to use a plug adapter. The disadvantage of the lamp is its rather high price, although if you want to save money, you will probably have to abandon smart models altogether. Otherwise, the lamp is perfect for the role of additional lighting for those who are interested in a device with remote control and flexible settings.
