Preface

This is an era of the Internet and an era of intelligent products. The development of Internet cloud technology has given wings to the intellectualization of products, and various intelligent products have sprung up.

In recent years, the Bluetooth speaker market has become extremely hot. From old professional speaker manufacturers such as Harman Carton and Huiwei to mobile phone manufacturers such as Huawei and Xiaomi, they have launched their own Bluetooth speakers. With the help of Internet cloud technology, Bluetooth speakers have become more intelligent and humanized, The youth version of DingDong smart speakers that I want to share with you today is a product~

Brand

DingDong smart speakers are from Beijing Linglong Technology Co., Ltd., a joint venture between JD and iFLYTEK, aiming to combine the artificial intelligence technology of iFLYTEK with the advantages of JD's industrial chain to create more intelligent and humanized excellent products. At present, there are two kinds of DingDong smart speakers: the youth version model of this time is LLSS-P001, In addition, there is a more high-end LLSS-A001 DingDong music robot.

Unpacking

The outer package of DingDong smart speakers is rectangular, which is simple and fashionable. The front is pure white, and the bottom is the logo of DingDong brand. The design is very flexible, which is worthy of Linglong Technology, ha ha.

In contrast, the JBL Go Smart packaging box of the DingDong family is more exquisite and has a stronger sense of design.

Both speakers belong to the DingDong family, and both support voice control and wifi networking. The following will give you a clearer understanding of the youth version of DingDong smart speakers through the comparison of the two products.

The left and right sides of the package are respectively printed with the QR code for scanning and downloading the app and the logo of the content partner. There are detailed product information on the back of the package: model, color, production date, etc~

Unpack! The packaging box is not sealed~The opening method is similar to the Bayer X7 electric toothbrush used by the author before, but the upper and lower boxes are tightly attached. Even if the upper and lower boxes are grasped by hand, it is not easy to fall. In addition, both ends of the speaker are carefully fixed with plastic foam.

DingDong's accessories are very simple, a white data cable, a manual and a warranty card. The JBL data line is red, and there is an additional safety instruction.

Appearance

DingDong has voice, youth and color! DingDong smart speakers adopt a colorful design. There are five colors on sale in JD, including champagne gold, jump red, passion blue, rose pink and vitality orange. This time, I got the champagne gold version, which is calm and grand.

The youth version of DingDong smart speakers adopts the overall shape of triangular prism, while the JBL Go Smart is square. Both of them have their own unique appearance and design. In comparison, DingDong should be more in line with the public aesthetic. DingDong has a three-dimensional dimension of 180mm x 62mm x 54mm and weighs 300g, which is very convenient to carry. JBL is smaller, with a three-dimensional size of 81 * 98 * 36.5mm and a weight of 212g.

In terms of workmanship, DingDong adopts double-sided anodized aluminum mesh, one-piece molded body and two-color injection molded bottom shell, which is both wear-resistant and anti fall, and also has a very good feel. Yesterday, it accidentally fell down from more than one meter high without damage~JBL process is similar, and the body adopts one-piece injection molding, but only the front is equipped with anodized perforated steel mesh.

The bottom of the fuselage is the basic information of the product, the left side is the AUXIN and USB charging ports, the right side is the main control area from top to bottom, which is the play key, the previous song to the next song, the Bluetooth key and the networking key, and the top is the dingdong key, which is also the voice control key. The key is sensitive and needs moderate force for comfortable feedback. The control keys of JBL are arranged at the top.

Functional experience

Control

Short press of the play key means pause, long press to switch on and off, short press of the next key means volume adjustment, long press to switch songs, short press of the networking key means entering the networking mode, long press to start networking, short press of the bluetooth key means entering the bluetooth mode, long press to start pairing bluetooth. Click the Ding Dong key to conduct voice control. Through voice control, a series of intelligent functions can be realized, such as song ordering, song cutting, query of electricity and weather, listening to radio crosstalk, volume adjustment, etc!

Voice&Networking

The first use of intelligent functions such as voice control and wifi networking, which are the most distinctive and selling points of DingDong smart speakers, requires the help of apps.

After getting the speaker, first scan the QR code on the package or the bottom of the box to download the app, and then select DingDong Smart Speaker Youth Edition after logging in to download the app.

Press and hold the networking key on the side of the speaker until the networking light starts flashing, the phone connects to wifi, and then input the wifi password on the App interface, The app will automatically start networking with the speaker via ultrasound. When networking, the phone speaker should be as close to the speaker microphone as possible, otherwise the networking may fail. After hearing the successful networking prompt from the speaker, you can enjoy the smart music experience!

The smart speaker APP provides a lot of practical functions. The home page of the interface provides power display, voice control tutorial, timed shutdown, etc.

With the smart speaker app, DingDong Smart speakers can also be used as the control center of smart homes, that is, the WeChat smart function. Through the voice control function of the speakers, it is convenient to manage all kinds of home appliances at any time and anywhere. At present, there are more than one thousand products in 21 categories that support WeChat smart home appliances. JD has also set up a special area. At present, a very mature ecosystem has been formed, and you can enjoy convenience and intelligence after joining, Free your hands from now on!

The resources carried by the smart speaker app are very rich, with 10000000 massive music, 4000000 hours of audio books, 1000 radio stations, and you can listen to whatever you want! The most important thing is to connect to the Internet once, and then you can listen to it freely through voice control of the speaker. The phone doesn't need any more~DingDong will also learn the user's usage habits and preferences, and the longer you use it, the better it will understand you!

Favorite songs can be either controlled by speaker voice or collected by app. At the same time, you can subscribe to programs, collect radio, and view recent broadcasts. In the future, you will also gradually open practical functions such as voice shopping, messages, and traffic queries through continuous upgrading to provide users with more services

Business~

Bluetooth

The Bluetooth connection is very convenient, fast, and of high quality. It is very stable within 10 meters. There is still no problem across a wall. After 10 meters, the sound will gradually start to be intermittent. The JBL Go Smart Bluetooth connection is similar.

Sound quality

The core of the speaker is the sound quality, and the speaker is the key to the core details. According to the official name, DingDong smart speakers use dual 40MM high magnetic NdFeB units and high-strength composite dual radiation diaphragm. The elevation design of the sound generating unit can make the sound transmission path closer to the ear.

DingDong&JBL Sound Quality Comparison

In the actual experience, the sound quality is still very good, and the analysis is in place. The sound quality is full, transparent, tri band balanced, and the volume is turned to the maximum without breaking. However, the bass effect is relatively general, which does not meet the author's expectations. Compared with JBL Go Smart, the time difference is obvious. After all, the price difference is only half of that of JBL, and DingDong Youth Edition of 199 is still very valuable!

Endurance

For Bluetooth speakers to be carried out, the endurance is very important! The youth version of DingDong smart speakers has obvious advantages in this respect. It is equipped with a 2200 mA built-in battery, which can be fully charged in a little more than two hours after actual measurement, and can play for more than 10 hours continuously after full charge, which is very good! In contrast, the JBL Go Smart battery is much smaller, only 1000 mA, but it supports power supply. When the power of both products is low, the power indicator will turn red.

Highlights&Shortcomings

Highlights:

1. Fashionable appearance, solid workmanship and reliable quality.

2. Intelligent voice control, wifi network playback, home appliance control, simple and intelligent operation, you know more about music.

3. Super large capacity battery, fast charging and strong endurance.

4. Comprehensive functions, the price of 199 is superior, and the cost performance ratio is very high.

Insufficient:

1. The bass effect is average.

2. The power supply is not supported, and the memory card cannot be inserted.

The accuracy of voice control and recognition needs to be further improved.

summary

DingDong smart speakers have excellent workmanship, powerful functions and strong endurance. It is an excellent Bluetooth speaker product with comprehensive performance. The price of 199 yuan is very cost-effective. I hope that DingDong series speakers can continue to advance on the road of smart speakers and develop better functions and products!
