Leaving home for school three It's only two winter vacations since the beginning of the year, and the winter vacation has only been more than a month. I suddenly feel homesick. In addition, when I talked with my mother on the phone last week, my mother said that my sister-in-law and sister are pregnant with babies, and I miss my relatives far away. I must go home this summer!

I suddenly thought, how wonderful it would be if there was a thing that could collect family photos scattered everywhere at any time, and everyone could share them on it! In fact, there are a lot of alternatives, such as various cloud disks, which can be shared by everyone, or sent directly to the social platform's circle of friends, and many people can see it. But it's not safe to stay like this. Apart from many cloud disks being shut down, what should we do if we have some private data, and what should we do if the elderly at home can't use these smart phones and computers?

It is believed that many people have similar needs, so a new product - Meibei Cloud Stick was born. What Carmen got today was from Lei Feng.com Love to play computer games Meibei Cloud Stick provided by the platform and Meibei Shell. Let's have a look at the magic of this cloud stick.

----------------

Unpacking

Meibei Cloud Stick has two parts, one is the host and the other is the storage disk (stick). Meibei divides these two parts into two packages, which are clean and tidy. The two packing boxes are made of black hard paper boxes, which are packed in a ceiling and floor style. They are very powerful in hand.

There is only one beautiful shell in the middle on the front logo , it seems low-key and connotative. There are "Cloud Stick" in front of the box .CloudBar ”And the words "storage disc" for easy identification. The lower part of the back of the box is labeled with the machine, and there are some simple icon descriptions.

First, let's look at the host. When the upper cover is opened, there is also a protective cover on the top. There is a pull strap on it, which is convenient to lift. This design is not really very humanistic. A layer of soft cotton pad is stuck on the inside side of the protective cover, which is very good to avoid some bumps and injuries during transportation.

Next, we can see that the cloud wand host and the user manual appear side by side. When the user manual is removed, we can see that all the accessories are packed separately, and there are various accessories on the package, which are placed in order and exquisite HDMI Cable, remote control, base (optional, Carmen got no base version, but two light foam cotton pads inside), adapter, and AC Line, really well protected.

On the left side is the cloud wand host. When you take it out, you can see that behind the cloud wand, from left to right, there are power sockets and optical fiber sockets, USB Port, switch, HDMI Interface, LAN Internet port. The cloud stick is made of metal body, and its surface is made of aluminum anodizing process. It is exquisite in shape, delicate in feel, and very high-end in metal texture.

The covers at both ends can be opened in a counterclockwise direction. There are three groups at each end, A set of 6 contacts, a set seven There is no difference between them. There is also a small white spot around, which is useful for assembly. Cloud Stick uses one Cortex-A9 , quad core frequency is 2.0GHz Of CPU and eight nucleus Mali-450GPU ， 600MHz ， 2G Memory, 8G Of ROM It can be said that it is a brain with high face value and large size.

Then take a brief look at the attachments. It has to be mentioned that the power supply of Cloud Stick uses Hangjia's power supply. Apart from others, Hangjia's power supply is the leader of power supply in China. It can be seen that Meibei Shell attaches great importance to this Cloud Stick.  

Finally, let's look at the storage disk. The package is still ceiling and floor type. When you open the cover, you can see that it is about 18CM There is a red rubber protective cover on the top of the storage disc. The color matches with the black gray metal storage disc, which looks very beautiful.

There are two sets of cooling ports around for heat dissipation, and the interface has three Group six There is also a small white dot beside the contact, which corresponds to the host interface. The connection of mother and child bars is only required to align the white dots and tighten them clockwise. There is also a small indicator light on the side.

There are two The arc-shaped anti slip pad ensures that it can be fixed during use. The capacity of the storage disk is 1T This should be said to be very large, enough for general use. Considering the later supplement, Meibei Shell's design also supports capacity expansion. From the design of both ends of the cloud wand, it can be seen that a host can connect multiple storage sticks. In fact, the official said that at most each end can be connected four Storage rods, both ends being eight Per storage disk 1T or 2T , each storage rod 250G Computing and capacity can also be expanded to a large extent.

Assembled cloud rod. Note that the assembled cloud bar is opposite to the two indicators.

Connect the power supply, turn on the cloud wand, the indicator light will be on, and the flashing light on the storage disk indicates that data is being read or written. You will be prompted to connect to the network, and then activate, and then prompt to download the mobile terminal APP Phone binding and firmware upgrade.

Cloud Stick Interface UI It is very simple. There are only three interfaces. The default main interface after startup is the family library, and the other two are downloading and setting.

In the family gallery are some recently shared photos and videos APP There will be a prompt on the TV side after the new photos are added in. There are three viewing methods in the family library: sharing time sequence, shooting time sequence, and theme album. In the theme album, you can create your own album according to your needs. When browsing on the TV side, you can press the menu bar of the remote control to select the file type to view, such as pictures and videos, and enter the slide show mode.

The download interface is very simple, with only one QR code, that is, the mobile terminal APP Download link for. In the setting interface, you can manage the cloud wand. The network settings and general settings are relatively simple. In the display settings, you can set the resolution, screen size, and screen saver settings. I will not repeat here!

mobile phone APP use

After downloading and installing the phone APP When it is opened for the first time, there will be a brief introduction of Cloud Stick on the interface, accompanied by text, which is very delicious.

Then you will log in. You must register a MeiID . After registering and logging in, you can see the local photos and prompt to bind the cloud wand. Here, the mobile phone and the cloud wand are required to be connected in the same WIFI Get off, or connect your mobile phone to the intranet of Cloud Stick WIFI Next.

It's especially said here that the pair of cloud sticks WIFI One is designed to connect to the public network, so that when you travel or the cloud wand is not around, you can directly send your mobile phone photos to the cloud wand for retention. The other is used to build a private wireless LAN for your family, which effectively protects your private photo album.

APP In UI It is also very simple, but also three My film, family gallery and settings. All photos and albums of mobile phone can be seen in "My Film". These can be stored in the cloud stick. It can also be shared to WeChat friends, circle of friends, etc.  

Click on the picture to project it to TV. The video can also be projected and played. Carmen found that 4k Video support is good.

5、   Family members share, and close the distance between distant relatives.

To be improved

1、   Single function and few file types. This should be said to be the biggest shortcoming. The hardware parameters are very powerful, which makes it a little overqualified. It is suggested to collect more functions;

2、   Photos of backup computers and other devices cannot be imported directly;

3、   Mobile phone APP The design needs to be improved;

4. It would be better if some public development interfaces could be opened, and the playability, customization and practicability would be greatly increased.
