They seem fairly comparable to the govee lights at a way lower price.
edit: the pro has 60lm brightness for govee.
Can anyone confirm this?

Nanoleaf is typically much more expensive, but with this discount I'd say it's a very good deal.

User Sentiment & Reliability (Real-World Data)
The "Lumen Gap" Reality: Despite Eufy listing higher peak lumens on some spec sheets (up to 90lm in some modes), real-world users consistently report that Govee Pro lights appear brighter and more vibrant, with a sharper "cone" effect on the wall.

Consensus
Common Praises
Common Complaints
Govee 🏆 Gold Standard Extremely reliable app; Massive library of user-created effects; Excellent warm white tones. Adhesive can fail on soffits (clips recommended); "Pro" version is expensive.
Eufy 🛡️ Security Choice Integration with security cameras (lights flash on detection); Easy installation. Colors described as "dull" vs Govee; Reports of water ingress in bulbs; 1-year warranty concerns.
Nanoleaf ⚠️ High Friction Native Matter support; Great integration for Apple HomeKit heavy users. App is widely criticized as buggy/slow; Cannot control individual pucks easily; Firmware instability.
Detailed Feature Breakdown
Govee Pro: The Enthusiast's Choice
Why it wins: Dedicated Warm & Cool White LEDs allow for classy architectural lighting that doesn't look like "Christmas lights" in July.
Installation: The only kit in this list designed to be cut and spliced natively. It includes watertight connectors to jump gaps (e.g., dormers or peaks).
Ecosystem: The Govee app allows you to download thousands of user-made scenes (e.g., "Candy Cane," "Thunderstorm," "Super Bowl Team Colors").
Eufy E22: The Guardian
Killer Feature: WonderLink: If a Eufy camera spots a stranger, the lights can automatically turn red or bright white to deter them.
White Balance: Uses a triple-LED design to mix whites, which some users find less accurate than Govee's dedicated white diodes.
Nanoleaf Matter: The Future Proof
Matter Support: Integrates directly into Apple Home, Google Home, and Alexa without needing a manufacturer-specific cloud bridge.
Warning: Users report significant issues with the Nanoleaf app crashing and failing to update firmware. It is best used strictly via HomeKit/Matter.
