What we liked
- 21 colors with both app and physical button control
- Head rotates 180 degrees so you can aim the glow at walls or ceiling
- USB-powered — runs off any port or power bank
What we didn't
- The app is a janky QR-code download affair, not a polished store listing
- Small projection head limits how big the sunset circle gets
This is the lamp from the TikTok videos. Point it at a blank wall, kill the overhead light, and your room turns into golden hour on demand. The 21-color range goes well beyond the classic sunset — deep blues, purples, and a rainbow fade mode for when you want the vibe to shift.
The 180-degree rotating head is the feature that matters in practice: ceiling projection for lying in bed, wall projection for photos, straight-on for that backlit portrait look. USB power means it runs off the same charger as your phone, and a power bank turns it into a portable sunset.
The catch is the app. It’s not on the app store — you scan a QR code and sideload it, and it feels exactly as polished as that sounds. The good news: the physical button on the cord cycles through everything, so you can ignore the app forever. And the projection head is small, so the sun disc stays modest unless you pull the lamp far back from the wall. For the price, neither is a dealbreaker.
