With the advancement of the "dual carbon" goals and the acceleration of new urbanization, the market for RGB LED lights is experiencing a dual boom in scale and technology. By 2025, China's demand for LED light beads is expected to grow by 6.5% year-on-year, with smart interconnectivity, precise color control, and multi-scenario adaptability emerging as key competitive arenas in the industry. However, the current market still faces two critical pain points: first, traditional RGB light beads' "pseudo-white light" from color mixing struggles to meet professional white lighting requirements, and second, most light beads lack IoT-level smart interactivity, failing to align with users' evolving demands for "scenario-based experiences." XINGLIGHT, with 12 years of expertise in the LED field, has launched the WS2812B RGB series and SK6812B RGB series products. These offerings not only precisely align with industry trends but also directly address market pain points. Backed by reliable performance data and full-scenario adaptability, they serve as the preferred solution for commercial engineering, home decor, and emerging application domains.

Trend 1

RGBW becomes the standard in mid-to-high-end configurations, bidding farewell to "color-mixed pseudo-white light."

Against the backdrop of constantly upgrading demand for LED iridescent lighting, RGB tri color iridescent beads dominate the mass market with 16.7 million color gradient effects. However, in scenarios that require a balance between white light lighting and decoration, the mixed white light of the three colors often appears cold and turbid, making it difficult to meet professional white light needs. By 2025, RGBW four-color LED chips with integrated RGB three color and independent white light chips will become the mainstream choice in the mid to high end market due to their performance characteristics of outputting pure natural white light, accurately matching color temperature, and high color rendering. The market demand will surge, and the penetration rate of scenes such as museums, high-end stores, and home main lighting will significantly increase.

The XINGLIGHT WS2812B Illusion Series accurately responds to this trend by launching the RGBW four-color version. With an independent white light chip design, the color rendering index (CRI) reaches 80-90, and the color temperature consistency is controlled within ± 150K. It can achieve 16.7 million color gradients while providing pure and natural white light, completely eliminating the problem of "false white light". Compared to traditional RGB light beads, its color reproduction is high, making it particularly suitable for scenes with strict requirements for light quality such as cultural relics display and high-end product display. As a classic RGB model, WS2812B is still the first choice for pursuing high cost performance dazzling scenes with its 256 level grayscale adjustment and uniform color mixing effect.

Trend 2

Deepening intelligent interconnection, LED beads transform into "end nodes" of the Internet of Things

The competition of iridescent LED beads has long surpassed the simple function of emitting light and shifted towards a comprehensive experience of "intelligent linkage". By 2025, supporting Wi Fi and Bluetooth Mesh connectivity, adapting to ecosystems such as HarmonyOS and HomeKit, has become a standard requirement for mid to high end products, and users' demand for "mobile remote control, voice dimming, and scene linkage" continues to rise. Meanwhile, the DMX512 control protocol, as an industry standard, is widely used in large-scale lighting projects and has become the core technical support for achieving dynamic effects.

The XINGLIGHT WS2812B/SK6812B Colorful Series is fully adapted to this trend, supporting SPI communication protocol and DMX control. Both series of products can seamlessly integrate into the Internet of Things system, achieving intelligent functions such as millisecond level sound and light synchronization, zone control of light, and timed switching. In home scenes, they can be linked with speakers and curtains to create an immersive viewing atmosphere; In commercial spaces, the ability to automatically adjust lighting brightness and color rhythm based on passenger flow has become a true "end node" of the Internet of Things.
