US plugs use flat pins, that looks to have round pins, which would be continental Europe and most of Asia, though I think Japan uses the flat two pins like the US does.

I was looking at getting a light on Amazon (UK) for about £130. I ended up buying the way better Lucent light from Game Envy (CRI 95+, 1350 Lumens, 3500 to 6500K and 9 points of adjustment for it's 5x LED bars). Including shipping of about $50 from the US to UK it totalled at ~£107. Game Envy do the Lucent at $85 for one or two for $160. With shipping to the UK you could (if you wanted) get two Lucent for about £165.
You're right with the Apple comparison too. This light seems to be overengineered, awkward and way overpriced 🤷‍♂
The plug is a 'Type C' often used in Europe, South America and Asia. Well known in the UK as a 'shaver plug'.

That's not a US plug. It looks like a shaving socket plug.

That's not a Plug. It looks like the Spanish Inquisition

No info about the CRI of this thing? That is honestly the only thing I care about when buying a lamp, Color Rendering Index tells you how well the light can reproduce certain colors which heavily impacts how you perceive said colors (and your models) under that light.

Also please keep Qi chargers out of my lamp stands 🙂 It’s very inefficient way to charge your phone, aka wastes alot of electricity, and I’ve stopped buying IKEA lamps purely because they including that useless feature in every single one of their lamps…
