Product description
This 2-in-1 reading lamp arrives as a flat LED panel with a small detachable base and a USB-C charging cable. A soft cleaning cloth is included in the package.
The light offers three selectable color temperatures: a cool white around 6500K for clear, focused reading; a neutral mid-tone; and a warm 3000K option for gentle, low-contrast bedside use. Brightness is stepless—press and hold the power pad to glide from roughly 25% up to full output, and the unit stores the last level used so you don’t need to reset it each session.
A programmable timer can be set anywhere between 1 and 99 minutes via the + and - touch controls so the lamp will switch itself off after the chosen period. Controls are laid out as simple touch pads: on/off and dimming, color-mode toggle, and timer adjustment, making it straightforward for both children and older adults.
The body is molded from scratch-resistant PC+ABS for durability and light weight. The flat panel is sized to sit on or alongside most paperback and hardcover books; it can also stand upright on its pink base to serve as a compact night lamp on a bedside table. Additional safety features include battery protection circuitry and ultra-low standby power draw, and the unit meets common household travel safety expectations.
Pros
- Three temperature settings and smooth dimming
- Programmable 1–99 minute auto-off
- Lightweight, rechargeable, and easy touch controls
Cons
- Panel may not fully cover very large pages
- Plastic diffuser can show fingerprints
- Base can make it a bit top-heavy when standing
VerdictThis versatile LED reading lamp combines a slim flat light panel with a small base so it works standing on a nightstand or perched on a book edge. The three color modes—from cool daylight (6500K) to warm amber (3000K)—and continuous dimming let you tailor illumination without harsh glare. A programmable 1–99 minute shutoff and brightness memory make it convenient for bedtime reading. Construction

Works, but limited coverage
It functions fine, but at night I find the panel doesn’t let me see as clearly as I’d like for smaller text. It was affordable, though.

Night-reader must-have
Great for late-night reading. Multiple light tones and a long-lasting battery make it easy to hold while reading flat or propped up. I’d recommend it for regular nighttime readers.

Simple and effective
A useful accessory for reading in low light. Easy to operate, and once charged it keeps working for a long time.

Very pleased
Lovely build and the multiple color modes are useful. Battery life is impressive and it’s stable, though the lightweight design can be tipped over if bumped.

Highly recommended
I really like this reading lamp. It performs well and the timer feature stops it from running all night. The surface attracts fingerprints but it came with a small cloth to clean it.

Excellent for sharing a bed
Adjustable settings let me read without waking my partner. The brightness options are exactly what I wanted.

Good idea, a bit small
Concept is smart but the light doesn’t span the entire page. If it were slightly wider so the edge sat fully on the book, I’d rate it higher. Brightness is fine, but the size isn’t for me.

Love it
I enjoy everything about this lamp. It works well as a reading and night light, the timer is handy, and the warm tone is my favorite.

Disappointed
The panel looks cloudy and distorts the text. I tried cleaning it but the plastic itself seems hazy. The hinge also feels cheap — overall I’m let down and regret not returning it sooner.

Does exactly what it says
People mentioned marks on the screen — a quick wipe with alcohol or a microfiber cloth removed them for me. Used it for a long flight and it lasted through four hours without charging; soft light was perfect for reading small print while wearing glasses.

Handy and rechargeable
USB-C charging is convenient. The panel is wide enough for comfortable reading without too much overhang. The base’s extension can get in the way near the end of a book, but it stands neatly on a bedside table and the long-timer option is very useful.
