-Write in front-
There is no need to discuss the existence value of audio here. The problem that can be discussed is how to achieve differentiation in the audio jungle. Last year, the popular practice was to replace Bluetooth with WiFi. Some manufacturers' practice is to give consideration to both WiFi and Bluetooth, while having the stability of WiFi transmission and the adaptability of Bluetooth. However, many of these products naturally lose their appeal, so some more intelligent manufacturers have started to introduce some new tricks in the way of operation. Today's experience of this micro speaker M7 is a pioneer. It reminds me that two years ago, the micro socket for crowdfunding was opened on a crowdfunding website. It comes from the same school, and both products are subversive to their respective categories.
-What has changed about this screen-
The first thing to change is the appearance. This curved screen is really beautiful and crystal clear. I can't help but press it down with my hand. This screen is more like a deliberate decoration. Because it is so beautiful, it is definitely the symbolic design of M7. In fact, the proportion of the screen is not very high, but because of the curved glass, the sense of integration is stronger, and the proportion of the screen is naturally ignored.
The 3.1 inch circular LCD high-definition screen has good brightness performance and can be seen clearly in the sun. The surface glass is very thick. Because the operation mode of the micro speaker M7 determines that users need to touch this glass with high frequency, so it needs to be very thick as the basis.
Metal is spliced with the arc screen, which is very similar to the practice of smart phones. There is no signal problem with the micro speaker M7, which is that the metal is more thorough. The 360 degree full metal cover, and the speakers are all open holes. Although there is no distribution of speakers inside, at least it looks like 360 degree sound.
Although many stereos use metal casings as their selling points, the materials and workmanship of each shop are different. A dozen pieces of metal casings are used in the parcel post of a treasure, which must be far from thousands of pieces of metal. It can be seen that some designs have been made on the surface of the micro speaker, and some solid treatments are irregularly distributed between the openings, achieving the visual effect of notes jumping. One side is designed with a micro speaker logo, which also serves as the speaker LED indicator.
In terms of weight, the micro speaker M7 has a strong sense of weight, and it is not as small as that in the promotional photos. Although cylindrical metal enclosure speakers are very common, few manufacturers have made the sound diameter similar to that of the micro speaker M7. Of course, the larger body brings a dual Nd magnet long stroke full frequency horn, which has a unique dual passive film enhancement, achieving an extremely shocking low-frequency and ultra wide sound range. Although it is not a mini, it is definitely a delicate design.
The other side is the only interface on the surface of the machine, which is powered by special charging. The micro speaker is equipped with a 6600 mah battery, which can play independently from the power supply for about 10 hours. It needs to be charged after about 6-7 hours.
There is a ring of rubber at the bottom as the support point of the speaker, which is more stable and can also be a good barrier between the metal and the desktop.
-What changes have been made in the operation because the touch screen cannot be added-
There is a 3.1 inch high-definition screen that cannot be touched, and there are no buttons on the surface of the micro speaker M7, so the operation mode is confusing. But it is very strange that this gap in the upper part of the body makes people involuntarily press it. Then something magical happened. Long press, and the magic power on music began to sound. The sound quality does not need to be measured. You can hear the power of the micro speaker M7 by listening to the power on music.
In addition to pressing, it can also rotate. Don't underestimate these two simple operations. For the screen that can't be touched, turning is selection, and pressing is confirmation. All interface operations in the system rely on this idea. The customized Moment OS operating system enables all operations to be expanded based on a circle, with music playing display in the middle and various operation buttons in the outer circle, such as previous song, next song, collection, setting, etc., which are controlled by rotation, selected and directly pressed to confirm. The operation mode is very novel, and you will play after getting familiar with it.
The operation mode of twisting also determines that each operation depends on two hands. Because there are some errors in the rotation, and the force is also carefully compared with the price, this rhythm habit can be quickly mastered.
-Is the system fun-
Micro speakers are audio devices that are directly connected to wifi, and do not support Bluetooth function. The advantage is that you can listen to music directly online, but users who are used to Bluetooth speakers need a little time to get used to it. Built in 4G storage space, good music can be downloaded and cached in the machine, and can be listened offline.
The micro speaker M7 supports all authentic audio sources, as well as domestic and international well-known music radio stations such as Douban FM, Himalaya, Xiami, QQ Music, and Netease Cloud Music. The biggest slot is that the loading is a little slow, which affects the mood of listening to music. Too much reliance on the network, the WIFI signal is slightly bad, and the buffering will take a long time. In addition, the music playback process is also sometimes stuck, which directly hinders the overall user experience of the micro speaker M7.
In addition, the WeChat speaker not only abandons Bluetooth, but also abandons APP. It is directly controlled by WeChat connection, which is very similar to the product launched before. The WeChat public account used is the same type, and the connection is simple. After the first connection, every time you open WeChat, it will automatically connect, and the content management in the WeChat public account can be completed in M7, Therefore, the value of the existence of the public account is that M7 can be put aside and controlled even if it is far away.
Finally, the sound quality performance of the micro speaker M7 is officially Hi Fi level hardware support, dual neodymium magnet long stroke full frequency speaker, unique dual passive film enhancement, ultra-high signal-to-noise ratio, excellent frequency response and sensitivity indicators. The biggest feeling of the author is that the bass is too good, thick and powerful. Every time the drum beat of the bass is over, the residual sound is reverberating. The effect of such a small figure can be comparable to the sound effect of several times larger. Surrounding speakers can obtain the same excellent sound quality from every angle. In terms of sound quality, this is a sound that allows users to enjoy music.
-Summary of dry goods-
The official said that the reason for not using Bluetooth is that it is separated from mobile phones, so that you can enjoy music quietly without being disturbed by various messages from mobile phones. However, the author thinks that the idea is good, but in reality, the wifi networking resources are very limited, and it is difficult to find those classic music. Moreover, if the wifi signal is not strong, the music loading will be very slow. Listening to music is still unlimited buffering or stopping the card. This experience is a word of "Alas"~unfortunately, the perfect appearance of the product. It is better to connect the mobile phone directly with Bluetooth and play the music in the mobile phone. In addition, the slow transmission of Airplay is also very limited to supplement the wifi connection. It is not as free as Bluetooth. The lack of an external audio interface also limits the use of micro speakers.
The appearance design of the micro speaker M7 is amazing. Although the word "amazing" has been used poorly, there are few really good products. This time, it is really appropriate to use it on the micro speaker M7. The appearance of an 899 audio unit is worth the ticket price, so all functions except the appearance are complimentary. It is not only long, but also has a customized Moment OS operating system suitable for round screen, press and rotate operation. Back to the essence of music, the sound quality performance is excellent, but the music resources and loading speed need to be optimized. The shortcomings do not outweigh the merits. The micro speaker M7 is the first speaker product of the Starboard. It is rare to achieve this. The next thing is still worth looking forward to.
