the ‘yeelight’ doesn’t necessarily need the app to use the basic functions, because the designers added a touch-enabled top interface that allows users to control brightness, select different modes and slide to choose the colors. the lamp has three preset modes – white, flow and night mode. the ‘white’ setting shines canary yellow for a comfortable and warm relax atmosphere. ‘flow’ emits four colors in random order and ‘night’ mode allows users to set a time, where the it turns on with soft light automatically. at the bottom, a brushed aluminum base houses the hardware to adjust the 14 LEDs that use color-mixing algorithms to combine to create different color temperatures.
