Govee arrived at CES 2026 with two ceiling fixtures that turn overhead lighting into programmable scenery. The larger Ceiling Light Ultra pushes brightness levels rarely seen in consumer lights, while the Sky Ceiling Light offers a subtler window-like illusion for darker spaces.
Ultra Model Turns Ceilings Into 4K-Style Murals
The Ceiling Light Ultra stretches a 616-pixel matrix across a panel that looks more like a mounted TV than a traditional fixture. With output up to 5 000 lumens, it can flood big rooms while displaying moving skies, world maps, or custom designs.
CNET editor Ajay Kumar, who previewed the unit, praised the flexibility:
> Ajay Kumar: “The customizability impressed me most. They showed a world map; I could see it as an art statement in a living room or foyer.”
He added the unit is “a lot bigger than I expected in person,” easily covering a larger room.
Sky Model Offers a Virtual Window
For those wanting a gentler effect, the Sky Ceiling Light recreates a convincing skylight look. Programmable daylight transitions aim to make enclosed areas feel connected to the outdoors without cutting a hole in the roof.
Smarter Software, Fewer Taps
Both lights ship with Lighting Bot 2.0, Govee’s updated platform that:
- Generates visuals from text prompts
- Suggests ready-made scenes for quick setup
- Auto-optimizes settings if users prefer a hands-off approach
Key Takeaways
- Govee’s new ceiling range merges high-lumen lighting with wall-art visuals
- Ultra targets big, bright statement pieces; Sky targets cozy daylight simulation
- Pricing and release date have not been announced
Expect room lighting to double as décor when the fixtures hit shelves later this year.
