With the rapid development of smart speakers in recent years, a complete category of speakers covering high, middle and low grades has been formed. Its functions mainly include wireless music playing, voice control, intelligent interconnection, and APP With the lowering of the technical threshold, more and more manufacturers have entered this field, and their products have become more prosperous than ever before. However, the development of new products has reached a bottleneck period, and it is difficult to make innovations in functions. The sound quality has a great relationship with the price and positioning of the products, O2 , Fruit shell GP2 Dingdong, Dongdong, these smart speakers are very special among similar products.

  However, these are not the key points today, because the Xiaojia smart speaker to be introduced in this article has gone beyond the concept of traditional smart speakers. From the appearance, many people will think that this is a combination of tablet and speakers, but I think this product is more like the network box version of desktop mini TV many years ago, because the tablet focuses on portability and performance, Xiaojia smart speakers focus on speakers and interaction, and positioning is obviously a device that tends to be used regularly. Let's review how this speaker will behave in use.

Xiaojia smart speaker was built by Shenzhen Kuanyang Network Development Co., Ltd. This speaker was mainly for export before, but recently it has also released a domestic version. Apart from the difference between the language and charger plug, it is not much different from the international version. The product for this trial is provided by Jimi Community, and I would like to express my gratitude.

The external package of the product is a rectangular paper box, which looks large and heavy. The interior is lined with environment-friendly paper pulp, which is simple and solid.

The whole set of products includes Xiaojia speakers one Console, remote control one Power adapter one 个、 MicroUSB Line one Root and manual one Certificate one Zhang, the overall workmanship is good, the instructions are also quite detailed, and although the main operating mode of the speaker is the touch screen, it is still equipped with a fifteen It can also be seen that the positioning of this smart speaker in product functions is closely related to audio and video.

There is one piece in the middle of the front of the speaker seven inch TFT Touch screen, support five touch control, resolution one thousand and twenty-four × six hundred , on both sides 5W Loudspeaker, you can vaguely see the shape of the loudspeaker and sound guide hole, as well as the sound guide hole. There is also a thirty The ten megapixel camera can be used for online video chat. Although the pixel is a little low, this configuration brings more functional experience to the speaker itself. In addition, the remote control signal receiver is set in the left audio area, so it should not be blocked during normal use.

The back is designed as an arc, the top is a button area, the middle is equipped with a handle for easy handling, the lower side is an interface area, and the junction is also designed with a prism, plus the front thirty ° tilt angle. It's hard to tell the feeling of this shape, but it must be a very special desktop device.

Top Settings three Physical buttons, which can switch the small sound box and adjust the volume. The interface area at the bottom is distributed in turn DC 12V Power input port, LINE OUT Audio output port, HDMI HD output, MicroUSB Mouth, MicroSD Card slot, and RESET Reset key. These interfaces are not inferior to many mainstream network set-top boxes, but Xiaojia has no standard configuration HDMI Line. If you want to display on the same screen on the large screen, you need to configure one HDMI Line.

The bottom is set with three Block anti-skid shock pad can make Xiaojia place more stably and reduce resonance with the desktop. The crescent hole next to the product label is Mic , I was worried that the design at the bottom would affect the sound collection, but from the perspective of actual use, there is no problem.

Xiaojia speaker adopts RK3128 Quad core A7 Processor, main frequency 1.3GHz ， Mail-400 GPU ， 1GB Running memory, 8GB Storage, TF Maximum card support 32GB Extension, support WiFi And Bluetooth four Wireless connection. After starting up, Xiaojia displays something similar by default Win10 Of Metro The style system interface, which has been deeply customized, is used as the display of speakers UI It is still very easy to use, with its own applications including music, video, voice, weather, news, JD, reading, etc eighteen At the same time, it supports downloading and installing applications with strong scalability. Of course, Xiaojia can also switch to native Android five point one The interface of is consistent with that of the tablet, and the experience is consistent. I will not elaborate here.

The overall operation of the speaker system is relatively smooth, and Xiaojia's function positioning itself is not about performance, but for general news, weather, video, music, e-book and other categories APP The experience is good. There is no jam in the operation, and the remote control can be used for operation, which is very convenient. As for the test of large-scale games and score scoring, it is not meaningful for this speaker, so it will not be covered here.

As a smart speaker, Xiaojia uses Lingxi Voice Assistant, an intelligent voice portal product that integrates food, housing, transportation, travel, shopping and entertainment. It is jointly built by China Mobile and iFLYTEK, and has a high value. From the actual experience, you can start voice commands by pulling down the status bar and clicking the speak button. This voice engine has excellent recognition rate, He also has a good understanding of natural language, such as finding a music, watching the weather, checking a train, telling a joke, and so on. As long as you ask, Lingxi will soon find what you want. However, it seems that Lingxi's voice assistant does not match Xiaojia's system in the interface icon and text display, which needs to be optimized.

It is more convenient to add reminders through the voice assistant. Similarly, the intelligence of language recognition is very high, such as ten Remind me to watch ball games in minutes. In the new reminder, the content is to watch ball games. The added reminder to go to fitness every Friday will be automatically set to run every Friday. This function is quite practical.

Through these days' use, I think the biggest advantage of Xiaojia touch speakers is touch screens and Android customized systems, which have better experience in some application scenarios. Here are some examples.

STAGE 1 : Home desktop information platform, with its own touch screen and speaker, can be used as a fixed information platform on the desktop. Applications such as watching news, checking weather, electronic photo album, background music, alarm clock ladder, video chat, etc. are the best. Since then, home desktop is no longer unique.

STAGE 2 : Kitchen chase box, Xiaojia speaker weighs less than 1KG , Size 350X117X120mm It is easy to find a place in the kitchen, and live shows will never be missed. Of course, drama chasing can also take place in many other occasions.

STAGE 3 : Good partner of working computer, which is really a good one idea The use of mobile phones can not afford power consumption. The use of tablets seems to be a little different from the desktop style. Xiaojia is really good. It does not occupy the screen of the working computer. It can track dramas, listen to music, chat, e-books and other applications. In short, as long as the boss has no opinion, the second screen of the desktop is more suitable than Xiaojia.

STAGE 4 : The bar is a romantic artifact. In the dim light, in addition to coffee and wine, it needs some intoxicating music and warm pictures. Xiaojia fully meets the needs of this scene. Of course, it would be better if it could be made smaller and more exquisite.

In fact, the above scenes are just one aspect of Xiaojia's use of speakers. In fact, there are many uses to explore. Of course, as a speaker, the sound quality should also be mentioned. Xiaojia uses two 5W I personally think the sound quality is good at this price. The bass is thick, the midrange is accurate, and the treble is transparent. Although the details are not well understood, the daily use is completely adequate. In terms of endurance, Xiaojia speakers use 7.4V /2000mAh 's built-in rechargeable battery. The duration of a full charge varies greatly depending on the use. If you watch the video all the time, the duration is three About hours, enough to watch a movie. If you just pause to listen to music, the endurance will reach six About hours, and most of the scenes Xiaojia speakers use are indoors. It's easy to find a socket, and the endurance can meet the demand.

summary

For one model six hundred and ninety-nine Yuan. For speakers with touch screen and Android system, this is a speaker and also a network set-top box. It has many functions and strong scalability. However, it is more important to find the correct functional positioning of speakers than simply good sound quality. It can be seen from the actual use, Xiaojia smart speakers perform well in many use scenarios at home or at work. As the second screen of the desktop or an auxiliary information platform, it is a very good choice.
