It seems that there are many ways to get a good sleep, such as sharing dreams with people you like, drinking a glass of milk before going to bed, or... Using Nox Music Sleep Aid Lamp? In recent years, with the rapid development of intelligent hardware, people can find almost any type of products, such as those that can help you record sports data, help you detect heart rate, improve your work efficiency, and record water consumption. Among the various products, there are naturally some with fancy functions, and of course, some with strong practicability. Now, let's take a look at this so-called product that can help you sleep. It comes from "enjoy sleep" - Nox Music Sleeping Aid Lamp.
packing
The packaging style is very simple. The front is printed with the product appearance and some introductions. The first impression is very important, while the overall packaging of Nox reveals a very fresh feeling.
Take out the box, and there is a layer of fabric wrapped around the NOx main body.
The accessories are very simple. A power supply unit and a manual are all gone. The cable of the power supply unit is too short. It is a little inconvenient to use.
Appearance design
The appearance design of Nox music lamp is also very simple, without too many fancy decorations, but also without many highlights. I can only say that it gives you the impression that it is a device that can emit light, and the overall output is a cleaner design.
The NOx adopts a segmented body. The white part on the top is made of soft silica gel, which has a good touch, but the only disadvantage is that it is easy to be contaminated with dust, especially on the white silica gel. As time passes, when you touch it, you will find a lot of dirt. The lower part is solid plastic, and one third of the area is covered by a thin cloth. But when you hit it, it will make a loud plastic sound. There is a circular touch/gesture recognition area below the front of NOx, which is printed with the English logo of "Sleeping". This is also the main area for interaction with you.
On the back of the music light is a sound hole, power interface and a USB output interface, which can charge the mobile phone, but the power of 5V and 0.5A is only 0.1 for fast charging, and is not suitable for charging.
The bottom is printed with some product related information.
The weight of 0.56kg is very light, after all, no metal material is used. Although we can see on the official website that this product won the Red Dot Design Award in Germany, there is not much to be noted in the appearance. Perhaps simplicity is also a silent beauty, just like Muji products.
App
The functions of the Nox music light need to be set through the app, such as changing the light color, light flashing mode, setting the alarm clock, etc. In addition, you can listen to FM and read articles about sleep. The playability is very high. However, the overall design logic of the app is more complex. It takes many steps to find a function, and a seemingly simple parent menu. Click in and there are more submenus. The cost of learning is too high, but you will be familiar with it if you play it several times.
To open the app, you need to create an account to use it. You can connect to your phone through Bluetooth. After pairing, you can control the NOx music light.
lighting
Nox can realize 16 million colors of lights, also known as RGB. Can't afford to buy an RGB keyboard? Can't you afford to buy an RGB light? Light can be turned on/off by gently clicking the touch area, and light color can be switched by gently sweeping the touch area with your hand. You can call up lights of almost any color in the app, and control the brightness at the same time.
(There are multiple color light effects)
(Wave to switch colors)
(Light effect can be set freely)
In addition, there are a variety of light modes available, which can be selected according to the environment. Press and hold the left and right sides of the bottom of the Nox light to increase/decrease the brightness, and tap the two sides to change the volume.
major function
Since its full name is "Nox Music Sleeping Aid Lamp", sleeping aid must be its main function, and we will also experience it in detail in this part.
How to help sleep?
When you are ready to go to sleep every night, long pressing the touch control area of Nox will automatically turn on the "sleeping scene", and then the light will automatically dim. At the same time, a very comfortable music will be played. In the app, you can set the light color, brightness and different music of the "sleeping scene". The music is mainly natural sound, including the sound of waves, rain drops and wind. From the actual experience, this sleep aid mode gives the author a very good feeling. Just imagine, close your eyes and lie on the bed, with a weak soft light hitting your eyelids, and accompanied by the sound of the waves hitting the shore, the whole person will be very relaxed, feel relaxed and happy, and will not want to pick up the phone and brush it for several times Love to play computer games 's micro blog.
Monitor sleep
It can help sleep and also provide the function of sleep monitoring, but this is not done by Nox, but by mobile phones. However, the use of this function is limited and not user-friendly. In the "sleeping scene" of the app, you can turn on the function of using your mobile phone to detect sleep. Then you need to put your mobile phone on the bed and connect it to the power supply. You can't turn off the app yet. The principle of this function is to use the gyroscope in your mobile phone to detect the vibration of the bed. After analysis, you can get the user's sleep data, because when a person sleeps lightly, he or she will swing from time to time, After entering deep sleep, it will not move, and then when the app thinks you are asleep, it will turn off the lights and music of NOx.
(After the sleep monitoring is turned on, the mobile phone needs to be placed on the bed and preferably connected to the power supply)
However, after practical experience, I found that the data obtained was not accurate. Sometimes I did not fall asleep, but the NOx would still automatically close. Moreover, after the Note7 event, I believe that no one is willing to plug the phone into the bed, let alone prevent the phone from falling to the ground.
(Sleep data, reliability is not very accurate)
Moreover, if there is more than one person lying on the bed, the monitoring of the App will be affected, and the data will become inaccurate. If you really want to monitor your sleep, it is recommended to purchase a special device for use. So in general, this function is relatively weak, but it is better than nothing. You can try it occasionally.
Smart alarm clock
The alarm clock is nothing more than the simplest function, but it is also nothing more than the most important function. Personally, Nox does a very good job in this regard. Similarly, an "intelligent alarm clock" is set in the App to cooperate with the sleep monitoring function. When you enter a light sleep state and are about to reach the set time, Nox will make a gentle and pleasant sound to wake you up. The alarm clock music used by the author is the singing of birds. When I hear it, I feel that I am in the wild. It will not wake you up like an ordinary alarm bell, but will wake up naturally without any unpleasant feeling. Yes, some people may think that any device can achieve similar functions, but Nox will integrate them together to give users a good feeling.
music
After Bluetooth connection, NOx can be turned into the speaker of the phone, but the sound quality is relatively flat and cannot be used during a call. Except for alarm clock or sleep aid application, you may not want to use it to play Music in general, but the positioning of Nox is not a professional speaker, so there is nothing to blame in this regard.
Himalayan FM is embedded in the app. Although the sound quality of Nox is average, it is very comfortable to use it to listen to radio stations and stories every night.
summary
The official price of the Nox music lamp is 499 yuan, which is neither expensive nor cheap. It can't be said that it is worth more than the price, but it can definitely be used, whether you regard it as a simple lighting tool or intelligent hardware with various functions, Nox can meet your basic needs well, but you still need to lower your expectations, because in general, it is a relatively simple product without too many fancy things.
The light effect is one of its highlights. Different color light effects can make the room more stylish and less deserted. The way to switch the light color with gestures also makes the interaction between NOx and you more interesting. In terms of the "sleeping aid" positioning of the product, its performance is qualified. Although it is not a very refreshing function, you will find it very interesting when you actually experience it, If the price of the Nox music lamp could be lower, it would be more attractive to the masses.
