When I was a child, when entertainment equipment was scarce and television was not yet popular, it was a great thing to have a radio at home. It was cool to install two dry batteries and walk around with them. It's a magic thing for a child to hear a voice coming out of a big box, but it will be more interesting to know why he can't talk to the speaker, why he can't see the people inside, and hope they can come out... Now some cheap radios are still part of the life of some elderly people who walk around the park, However, due to the limited and rare radio frequency band, as well as the strict review and application restrictions of radio license, it is more and more difficult for traditional radio stations to expand in a large area. With the popularization and development of the network and mobile Internet, Internet radio has gradually become popular, and has gradually become the driving force and competitive point of traditional radio and new flat shot. There are more and more smart hardware products for some mobile APP and listening to Internet radio.

With demand and market, Xiaomi has also launched its own network radio. As an intelligent product, Xiaomi network radio supports intelligent control and timing switch. At the same time, it can be used together with other smart products of Xiaomi. It connects to the network through WiFi (only supports 2.4GHz b/g/n) and supports WiFi direct connection, and deeply integrates high-quality content resources of Himalayan radio, With high-quality speakers, you can easily listen to massive network content and play music wirelessly with iPhone devices.

This trial product is an internal test product, and the actual experience is based on this product.

1. The price of 129 yuan is relatively cheap, which can be used as an internet radio and speaker

2. Simple and fashionable appearance, few buttons, touch volume adjustment and program switching button

5. No built-in battery, no TF card slot, inconvenient for some people

6. Airplay and Mi Lian are supported, but they need to be manually enabled. The support of common wireless playback protocols for Android phones is not high, such as Samsung S5 and ASUS Zenfone ZOOM phones

7. The treble is slightly sharp; The intermediate frequency resolution is good, and the vocal part is excellent; The bass effect is not obvious, and the diving force is not enough, slightly stuffy. You will select songs for comment later

The packing box list includes one Xiaomi Internet radio, one user manual and one micro USB power cable, but no power adapter is provided.

Xiaomi Internet Radio is mainly white and adopts an integrated design. It has only orange on the corner, that is, the switch key on the upper right corner. The PC+ABS material is very smooth. The 2-inch horn design occupies most of the front area and supports a frequency range of 90 - 18 KHz (- 10dB).

Xiaomi Internet Radio adopts a sleek arc design style, without edges and corners, giving people a mellow feeling. It is small in size, 83mm * 83mm * 50mm, and 168g in weight,

The buttons of Xiaomi Internet Radio include the mechanical button in the upper right corner and the capacitive touch button on the top. The volume can be adjusted by sliding left and right, and the program can be adjusted by pulling up and down.

In addition to the logo of the MI in the middle of the back, there is a microUSB charging interface (5V-1A) below, which can be used with some commonly used Android phone power adapters. The hole above the interface is the power indicator, and the hole on the right is the reset hole.

The indicator light can be orange or blue. The orange light will flash during power on and networking, and will turn blue after successful networking.

A square rubber anti-skid pad is designed at the bottom, which has great resistance. Because it is an internal test prototype, the CMIIT ID is not printed. The actual model of this product is WLSYJ01CM, which is consistent with the official website.

Then there is a problem. What if you can't shut down without the power button? Suspend standby. The rated power of 2 watts is not large. In addition, there is an automatic switch on/off setting, which can replace the switch on key. It can be used when listening to music and sleeping or waking up with the alarm clock in the morning.

Now enter the actual trial.

The actual experience is carried out with mobile phones ASUS Zenfone ZOOM (Android 5.0) and iPhone5c (9.2). The FW version of Xiaomi Internet Radio is 1.8.9.

Since it is a smart product, APP is also indispensable. Xiaomi Internet Radio needs to be used with the official APP smart home. If there is no Xiaomi account, you need to register and log in first. The device pairing and connection settings are very simple. It can automatically search and find the surrounding devices, and directly follow the operating tips.

Wait quietly for the configuration to be completed automatically. If some settings are not successful, try to close the device to the phone, and try at a place where the network signal is stable.

The firmware of Xiaomi Radio is also upgraded through OTA. When a new version is available, a prompt message will appear. Click Download and Upgrade directly. For those with upgraded obsessive-compulsive disorder, it is better to upgrade directly.

As mentioned earlier, first of all, Xiaomi Internet Radio is an Internet radio, which can also be used as a small WiFi speaker. We will experience the sound quality. Before the formal audition, the speakers were simply heated for about 37 consecutive hours according to personal habits, so as to have a more authentic and objective experience.

Xiaomi Internet Radio has prefabricated some radio stations, but in actual use, you still need to manually add your favorite radio stations and remove those that don't listen. The types of radio stations are divided into live broadcast and on-demand broadcast. They already cover some mainstream radio stations in terms of content, and they are superior in number and types. For example, HITFM, which you like to listen to at ordinary times, has also been included. However, through listening, there are some problems. That is, the sound quality of network radio stations is general, slightly rough, and can not meet the demand for high-quality enjoyment, which is far less effective than listening in the car, But it is not the radio equipment.

When adding radio stations and switching songs, occasionally an error message will appear, as shown in the following figure, but in fact, it has been successfully added and switched.

In addition, in terms of playing methods and actual use, users can share the Xiaomi Internet Radio with others, and can set the timing switch to make the music listening sleep or early alarm more rich and practical. Another key function is to support audio push, which supports Airplay and Mi Lian, but needs to be manually enabled. For SAMSUNG, ASUS and other mobile phones, wireless push can only be quietly watched.

For the speaker function, the Airplay function of iPhone and iTunes is used for experience. The songs are mainly WAV and AAC.

I thought that the main feature of the product was the radio function, so I stopped listening to about 80 songs in depth, but only selected a few representative songs for comment. In addition, everyone's perception of audio is different, and the equipment is an internal test model, so the comments are only for reference.

Take "Bamboo Flute" and "Violin" for example, the treble has a slight sharp sound, which makes people feel unable to get rid of it, and the performance is not transparent enough. But it is smooth in the connection of rhythm and scene change.

The cheerful style of A-Lin's "A Thought of You" sounds very comfortable and mellow. It is in place in the restoration of voice, easy and free in connection, and powerful in relaxation. As for the songs of such singers as Cai Ma and Zhao Peng, the performance of "Ferry" and "Boat Song" is also commendable, and the analytical power is also good.

Taking Drum Poems and The Battle as an example, the bass of the opening part can be fully displayed, but it is somewhat dull, lacking in strength, and the diving strength is not high, but there is no lag in rhythm.

From the sound quality effect shown as a speaker, Xiaomi Internet Radio is more suitable for listening to popular music, not for violin and other instruments.

In terms of design, Xiaomi Internet Radio is small, light, simple and easy to operate; In terms of price, 129 yuan is not too expensive; In terms of function, it can be used as a network radio or a WiFi speaker, but it has no built-in battery, no TF card slot design, and currently only supports Airplay and its own Mi Lian in wireless playback. These may be the part that some people need to pay attention to, and may even be part of the reason that affects their purchase.
