Philips
Philips, which has always produced excellent products, guarantees also the quality of low-end, circulation-grade downlights.
Royal Philips of the Netherlands holds a dominant position in the industry of lighting. Signify, the company that owns the “Philips”, is the largest lighting company in the world.
Philips home decoration downlights start at 20-30 yuan/piece. This price range is aimed at mass market lamps. Downlights are usually simple and have basic designs. Due to cost constraints, they do not have very sophisticated optical designs. If the light source quality is up to standard and the lamp body is made of solid materials, then it is worth the money.
Panasonic
Panasonic downlights are all the most common entry-level models. The PBT plastic Canfang series begins at 9 yuan/piece and the aluminum Yifang Series at 35 yuan/piece. Both models have excellent heat dissipation, and the light source quality and workmanship are comparable to those of Philips. On a par with each other, it is worth mentioning the IP44 waterproof series. Its light-emitting surface can prevent water dripping and splashing. It is very suitable for use in kitchens and bathrooms. Panasonic is the only manufacturer of low-end or mid-end downlights for mass-market use. The price per piece is 25 Yuan. At first, due to cost constraints, its outer shell was also fully plastic.
At the mid- to low-end price range, NVC offers the most abundant selection of downlight styles.
OP
NVC and Opple are both leading companies in the local lighting industry. Home decoration products are based on catching up to trends, following popular models and lowering the prices of iterations. According to the “500 Most Valuable Brands” analysis report released by the World Brand Laboratory in 2021, NVC once again won the championship with a brand value of 43.687 billion yuan. This is the tenth consecutive year.
NVC’s early experience in home photography was not as deep as Opple’s. But after 2015, it made a big move into home furnishing and deployed e-commerce channels. On Double 11 in 2020, NVC won the sales championship of lighting fixtures on the four major platforms of Tmall, JD.com, Suning, and Vipshop, and has become an e-commerce powerhouse on par with Opple.
Opple is not as unique as NVC’s Downlight products.

Why buy branded downlights?
I should have a say in this issue. I have been dealing with lighting fixtures for more than ten years and have a relatively rational understanding of lighting fixtures.
Recently, I have evaluated many downlights and spotlights, including the main models from mainstream brands such as Opple, NVC, FSL, Panasonic, Seaton, Philips, yeelight, West Rail, and Qiyi. Of course, there are also so-called Internet celebrity brands and miscellaneous brands on the Internet, let’s say hundreds of them at least.
Let’s first talk about some major differences between mainstream brand of downlights and other brands.
If a brand in the same price range is compared with other brands, the brand will be completely defeated in terms of appearance, such as feel and weight.
The brand failed to compare brightness at the same power level.
The brand is the winner in terms of quality and core accessories.
What does it mean? Listen up.
Weight and feel:
What the brand’s lamps focus on is just right. It’s not that they are reluctant to use materials, but that excess piles of materials are meaningless. X-brand lamps rely on their appearance to attract attention. This is the commonest way. These tricks are easy to perform in front of beginners, but require a lot of material. The days of winning the market are long gone.
high brightness:
We will choose the brighter lamps if the power is equal. There is no price increase for brightness, and retailers also use this method to save energy and brighten lamps.
We only know that, but don’t understand why. The high-brightness of the lamps is at the cost of an accelerated light decay. It’s not that the brand’s lamps don’t work, but The brand of downlights you bought this year will still be the same in three years. Lamps with high brightness can lose their brightness after two years.
Many Internet celebrities have achieved luminous efficiency levels of more than 100lm/W.
The core accessories and processing:
The gap between the internal workmanship of the lamps was so large that I was stunned when I wrote my answer. I did not have my phone and I could not see the detailed display.
Craftsmanship is just as important as good accessories in making a great lamp. The image below shows how to remove the power supply from the The brand downlights.
This way you can clearly see that big brands are unambiguous on core components.
It’s also worth noting that when you use downlights to light your home there is no reason to intentionally pursue deep anti glare because the beam angles of deep anti glare downlights are relatively small. The light source must be combined with other light sources to avoid the appearance of a bright sky and a dark ground.
Mostly 50-70deg. The light spot that extends from the ceiling down to the floor in a commercial building of about 2.7M height is similar to this.
The distance between walls in the example of a downlight shown above is 1M.
This type of downlight has a problem called “darkness at the top”. If the ceiling does not have enough fill light, it needs to be used with caution when used for basic lighting.
2.How to buy downlights?
Everyone wants to buy good downlights, but are the more expensive the downlights really, the better? Yes, it is true.
But we may have overlooked an important question, is it really useful?
Even though Lambo’s performance is amazing, it still has a gap with Wuling Hongguang.
Don’t waste your money. Home lighting can be done with downlights that cost tens or hundreds of yuan.
The most basic configuration:
- No video flash (basically as standard).
- Generally, CRI Ra>80, R9>0
- Color tolerance less than 7SDCM
- Range RG/Rf80 to 100
- Service life. The service life of downlights of compliant brands will basically be 5 years +
This standard can be met by familiar brands. Even brands such as Panasonic and Philips have starting prices of around 10 yuan.
