▼ If parents often watch Golden Eagle cartoons with their children, they will remember an animated public service advertisement. The content is probably that a child wants to find her father, mother, grandpa and grandma to play with her, but they are all busy, and no one is willing to accompany her. She had to sadly hold the Micah doll and say a sad word: Micah, no one is playing with me! Although I will feel a slight sadness when I see this advertisement, I really face up to this problem because of my daughter's words. At that time, she was four years old. At that time, our family were in the living room, and her daughter was watching cartoons, so my father was watching news on his mobile phone, my mother was knitting sweaters, and my wife was playing games on her tablet, Take the mobile phone and look at it casually; At this time, the advertisement started, and we didn't care about it. When the advertisement ended, my daughter suddenly said to herself, "You must not have been born by Mom and Dad. You were picked up from the garbage, so they didn't want to accompany you." Her words amused my grandparents, but they tangled me up at midnight. As someone once said, no matter how busy you are, you should always find time to accompany your children, otherwise, they will grow up!

▼ In today's society, because of life and work, many parents are overwhelmed. They want to give their children better material conditions, so they often ignore what their children want most, that is, the company of their parents. So, no matter how busy the work is, it is really necessary to accompany the children after work every day. Of course, as parents, they must have their own independent time, so we should find a good playmate for the child, so that he/she will not feel lonely. Xiaoxi Robot from Xiaoxi Technology Co., Ltd. is aimed at this goal. It is an intelligent digital product specially designed for children. The pleasing design is very popular with children!
The outer package of Xiaoxi Robot uses a hard cardboard box, on which a cute little girl is playing a video with her mother. This kind of package tells us that this is a children's product, and one of its most important selling points is to facilitate video chat between children and parents.

▼ The inner layer uses a kind of support layer similar to plastic material, but it is too thin, and this material is fragile, so I personally recommend the manufacturer to replace it with a thicker foam support, which can play a better role in protection. From the box, we can see that Xiaoxi Robot has reserved an empty slot. From the shape, it should be the overseas version of the power plug.

▼ The family photo of Xiaoxi Robot is also relatively simple, including the host, power supply, data cable and a manual.

▼ As an intelligent product specially designed for children, the appearance of Xiaoxi robot is absolutely a highlight. Its irregular round face, small mouth, and two pink triangular ears are like a cute little robot cat. The silver mouth is not an ornament, it has the function of returning. I don't know how many children like this model. Anyway, my daughter's first words after seeing it were: "Wow, what a lovely kitten!" Then she hugged her and refused to let go. When her friends saw it, they were even more envious.


▼ If you look at it from behind, it is more like it. There is a golden little round tail behind the buttocks. I really feel cute! The two cat ears are made of soft plastic to avoid scratching children.

▼ From top to bottom, the back of the Xiaoxi robot's head is the reset hole, power switch, rear camera and speaker.

▼ From the side, it looks like a cute kitten sitting on the table.

▼ Xiaoxi Robot adopts a 25 degree adjustable elevation design, which is convenient for children to watch.


▼ At the bottom of Xiaoxi robot, there are two long and one round anti-skid foot pads. There is also a slot similar to the battery compartment in the middle, but it is useless at present. It should be prepared for subsequent product upgrades. Looking at the anti slip mat below, it suddenly occurred to me that the name of this product is "Xiaoxi Robot Desktop", which means that there are other types of products. For example, three wheels are installed below, which can run at will. It is more like a cute cat robot.

▼ When the power of Xiaoxi Robot is too low, the two pink kittens' ears will emit red light to tell you that it is hungry and needs to be charged. When it is fully charged, its ears will emit green light.

▼ Since we talked about the battery, let's talk about the endurance of Xiaoxi robot. After testing, at 22:51 the night before, the battery power was 100%, and then the screen was turned off for standby. At 7:38 the next morning, the battery power was still 57%. That is to say, in less than 9 hours, Xiaoxi standby consumed half of its power. That is to say, The standby time of Xiaoxi robot is less than 24 hours. In normal use, from 100% to less than 10%, it only takes three hours. It shows that Xiaoxi's endurance is really average. Although it is a desktop model, we can always plug it in when necessary, but the battery endurance needs further optimization. Why does Xiaoxi consume so much power when he is in standby mode? The reason is that even when he is in standby mode, his microphone and distance sensor are always working to ensure that he can wake up with voice at any time.

▼ Next, let's take a look at the appearance design of this Xiaoxi robot in the shape of a kitten, which is really very Q, 7-inch IPS HD display, front and rear dual 1080P cameras, Android system, 4-core 1.3GHz processor, 1G RAM, 8G ROM, 4000mAh polymer lithium battery, To be honest, Xiaoxi Robot is a kitten shaped tablet computer with a base. If you want to ask what is the difference between Xiaoxi Robot and ordinary tablet computers, the appearance must be the first, which is also its biggest highlight.

▼ Xiaoxi Robot also has a supporting APP application, which is also necessary to achieve the function of "one button video". We add family members through APP, and then the added members will appear on the main interface of Xiaoxi Robot. However, here is a suggestion. When someone applies to join the family circle, the APP has no notice, even if there is no information symbol. You must click the information button to see it. We can also set "automatic answer in 5 seconds" in the APP, but I suggest turning this function off on the mobile phone, or you may hear a child calling your father loudly when you are in a meeting.

▼ Xiaoxi's main interface is very simple, that is, your family circle members, children or the elderly at home can use one button avatar to conduct video chat. Think about how young children or older parents usually make videos with their relatives in the distance. Take my family for example. My father and mother basically don't understand computers, and they use old phones. My sister is in Beijing. In addition to making regular phone calls, my father and mother want to have a video chat with her and watch her granddaughter, My daughter also wants to see my aunt and sister, but this premise is that I must be at home to help her/them complete the video with QQ or WeChat. If I am not at home, there is no way. But now, with Xiaoxi, it becomes very simple. You can do it with a single click.


▼ The function of "one button video" is definitely one of the main selling points of Xiaoxi Robot, but there are still some problems. To ensure the normal operation of "one button video", the Xiaoxi APP on the mobile phone must be always online, which is very troublesome. Now most mobile phones have the function of automatic memory cleaning, and the background applications will be killed after a period of time, Then there is no way to video. At present, you can only set Xiaoxi APP to white list in these cleaning software, but even so, it will often die in the background. In addition, you don't have any mobile phone offline prompt on Xiaoxi's robot. The child will be very depressed if he can't respond to several calls. I hope Xiaoxi Technology can come up with improvement measures as soon as possible, even if it is just to set an offline logo on the family circle member's avatar 。

▼ In the same way, calling Xiaoxi Robot from the mobile phone APP is the same, and it can be automatically connected in 5 seconds. Even if the child is not there, you can also observe the situation at home through the camera, which plays a role in home security. Speaking of which, I would like to urge the developers of Xiaoxi again. At present, the rear camera of Xiaoxi robot is not available, which will affect the effect of secure housing monitoring. I hope it can be launched as soon as possible.

▼ Let's talk about the quality of Xiaoxi's robot camera. Officially, it is a front and rear dual 1080P high-definition camera. However, in actual use, the effect is not ideal, with serious frame dropping, and there is an obvious phenomenon of screen dragging. The image quality is not as good as expected. It feels like 2 million pixels. The 13 million yuan camera is not expensive now. Why are you still using such a low-grade camera? It affects your mood.

▼ However, my family's little Gongju doesn't have so many opinions. She is chatting with her sister who is far away in Beijing!

▼ Xiaoxi Robot also has the function of man-machine conversation. In the final analysis, it is similar to Apple's SIRI, but it is only an Android version. This is also the "culprit" of poor battery life, because even if it is in standby and off screen state, you can wake up by saying "Hello Xiaoxi", And for the first time, you can say the demand without clicking the microphone logo.

▼ For example, "Huaibei weather"

▼ Or "Play Black Cat Sheriff"

▼ Even if you want to find some materials or software through Baidu, you can do it through voice. By the way, let's say in advance that Xiaoxi Robot is actually an Android tablet dressed in "cat skin", but it optimizes many built-in functions of Android, and its initial interface even includes a browser or None. If we want to install some software, we can call Baidu Search by voice, and then activate the browser to download and install it. This is something that children will never use, and parents need to operate it.

▼ Download and install the app.

▼ In addition, let's take a look at the so-called AI dialogue. If you have used Apple's SIRI, it is easy to understand this thing, and we can see some shortcomings of it. First, it is that the database content is relatively small, and it cannot do many commands you send, or it gives an error result. If you want to get a satisfactory answer, you must follow the set procedure. It is also weak in fuzzy processing. Second, its voice is really ugly. Although it is called Xiaoxi Robot, you don't have to make such a stiff voice! Don't talk about adults. The children are very awkward. My daughter said to me, "Dad, Xiao Xi's voice is so ugly!" I had to say to her, "Because Xiao Xi is a robot." Although you don't have to make a voice of Lin Zhiling, you should at least make a cartoon voice and a fluent voice of animation!

▼ However, it is worth mentioning that Xiaoxi Robot's recognition ability of voice commands is very good. Basically, you can completely recognize the standard words in Mandarin.

▼ Apart from the family circle interface, there is only this application interface. Xiao Xi's initial applications are few. As I mentioned earlier, there is no browser or application market. There are only five projects: setting, cool dog music, screensaver, Bewa Early Education School and Taijieyun audio-visual. To be honest, this design is very unreasonable. Although this simple interface is very suitable for children's positioning, it is impossible for parents who do not know about Android to install an application for Xiaoxian. So, the most basic application market should exist, but as a product for children, the built-in application market should not be the common one in the market. It should be customized for children, or at least optimized. It can't have all kinds of messy applications. In that case, it will really be just an ordinary tablet. It should customize some applications that are helpful for children's growth and education, so it is worthy of its identity.

▼ In terms of operation, it is the same as an ordinary tablet, so now children are very quick to start, and they can play quickly once they get it.


▼ The setting is also very simple. The QR code on the right is a shortcut to join the family circle.

▼ The screen saver function of Xiaoxi Robot is all very cute cartoon characters that children like very much, and it is said that Xiaoxi Robot can support parents later It is also interesting to send audio in these cartoon forms to interact with children.



▼ In terms of educational resources, at present, Xiaoxi Robot only cooperates with "Bewa Early Education School", which is also a well-known software program in early childhood education. Of course, if it can cooperate with Qiaohu later, it would be best. "Bewa Early Education School" is divided into six categories, namely "Babies' Literacy", "Chinese Classroom", "Good Habits Cultivation", "Scientific Exploration", "Thinking Training Camp" and "English Paradise".

▼ Each section covers a lot of learning knowledge, which is fun to teach. Compared with the rigid education of parents, babies are easier to accept and absorb here.

▼ Cute cartoon characters with beautiful music enable children to learn knowledge in play.



▼ See how happy the two kids are. They are choosing their favorite courses.

▼ I also practiced with the dance teaching in Bewa Early Education School. To be honest, I watched TV Similar early education software has been installed in Xanadu, but when her daughter is asked to follow her, she is always uninterested. She always feels that neither the TV nor the tablet belongs to her, while Xiaoxi Robot is completely her own, so she is more willing to accept some things taught by Xiaoxi Robot, including singing and dancing.

▼ Therefore, as a successful children's product, it should not only have connotation, but also have a shape that children like. If they like the appearance, it will be half the success. If you distinguish it from what adults like and let the child feel that it belongs to her, then this product will be really successful.

▼ There are many kinds of software and games on the app, but this does not meet the child's positioning, so it is the top priority to launch the exclusive application market of Xiaoxi Robot as soon as possible.

▼ However, smart parents can always find some educational software suitable for their children, and children can use it very well!


▼ Although it is said that Xiaoxi Robot is not very different from ordinary tablets in essence, and the software installed is basically interconnected, as parents, they are more willing to accept the former. For tablets, I think parents should have a natural resistance to let children too much access to tablets. One of the major reasons is that children's unrestrained playing with tablets and improper viewing methods can easily lead to decreased vision and myopia. Xiaoxi's robot performs well in this respect. First, it has designed Xiaoxi as a desktop robot, and its weight is not light, so it is not suitable for children to hold it all the time, especially children. In addition, it also adds a distance sensor, which will give voice prompt and turn off the screen once the child is too close to the screen. This is very good, and can correct children's bad viewing habits.

▼ This is more effective than parents' advice. Children seem to be more willing to accept Xiao Xi's suggestions, but they are resistant to their parents' hard work.

▼ As mentioned earlier, Xiaoxi Robot is a tablet covered with "cat skin", so it can basically do anything that an ordinary tablet can do, and it can not only do early education for children, but also watch movies and follow plays with it, and install various video clients at will, and watch what you want. Of course, I personally suggest that since this is for children, It is better not to install too many other irrelevant software, or it will lose its meaning.

▼ Watch online movies and TV plays at will.

▼ It is really convenient for children to watch TV when they are not using it, which is more convenient than ordinary tablets.

▼ In Xiaoxi APP, there is another function I like very much, that is, "good habits", which includes many actions in daily life, such as eating, brushing teeth, drinking water, cleaning, etc. To be honest, this function is used by parents to restrain children to a certain extent, and the effect is very obvious!

▼ Take my daughter for example. If she plays games or watches cartoons on a tablet at night, when you ask her to go to bed, she is very reluctant and depressed. Even if you agreed before, she will resist. But if you use the command of "good habits" on Xiaoxi, she will obey very quickly. Maybe it is because the child's psychology is still too simple. Her parents let her sleep, and she will feel that her parents won't let her play. But Xiaoxi sends the command to let her sleep, and with the lovely animation, she will think that she should go to bed. The child is so simple and lovely. And this is also a bridge to increase the interaction between parents and children. You will suddenly find that children become more obedient. Let her learn to do housework. Although she still can't do it well, she is willing to do it. This is progress.


▼ Xiaoxi has come to my home for a week, and my daughter has become more clever now. Whether she goes to bed at night or goes to school in the morning, she will say "Good night, Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa; good night, Xiaoxi."“ Goodbye, Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa; See you, Xiao Xi. ”


Maybe as a parent, I am particularly picky about children's products, especially this kind of digital products related to children's education. I always want to make it look like what I imagined. So after a week of use, I will not say more about the advantages. I have summarized the following suggestions, and hope that Xiaoxi Technology can refer to them:
1. The voice interaction is too rigid and mechanized. I hope it can become more cartoon and more spiritual. These children are also more willing to communicate with it.
2、 The content of the voice interactive resource database is too little, and many questions can't be answered. They will be turned to Baidu search. How many words do you think children aged 3-6 can recognize?
3. The battery life is too short, so it is necessary to optimize it; Although "Hello Xiao Xi" can be directly awakened, you still have to press your hands to answer questions later. You only sacrifice the endurance time for the first step, and make your own choices.
4. Children's education resources are still too few at present, and a "Bewa Early Education School" is far from enough. We need to select and optimize or find some early education institutions to cooperate, and launch more high-quality early education resources. If it really works, even charging is OK.
5. For the optimization of functions related to "one click video", how to ensure that the APP end is always online, or to add offline marks, the same goes for the machine end.
6. The camera effect is really bad. It affects the video quality too much.
