preface

In September, Mirage officially released the latest speaker in Shenzhen - Mirage Xiaoji. Since the Year of the Pig in 2007, Mirage has launched a Chinese zodiac shaped speaker every year. Mirage Xiaoji is the 11th product in the Chinese zodiac series, specially designed for the upcoming Year of the Chicken. Xiaoji, whose name is the same as "chicken", symbolizes good luck and is definitely an essential mascot for the 2017 New Year.

However, for a speaker, the name is just an image, and its design and sound quality are the key points to test whether it is worth starting. Fortunately, the computer trial gave me the opportunity to try it out, so that I could get started with this lovely Bluetooth small speaker at the first time. Now let's follow me to understand the charm of this small speaker.

Unpacking

The outer package of Xiaoji is yellow, which makes people feel very warm. With the photos and logo of the speaker, the overall design is very simple and clear, without redundant design.

On the side is the relevant technical data, functions and relevant introduction of the speaker.

Family photo: Unpacking, these are Xiaoji speakers and all accessories, including brochures, adoption cards, data cables and other accessories. The adoption card has detailed instructions for the use of the speaker, making it very easy for Xiao Ji to get started. However, even without such an adoption card, it is very easy to know where each button is, how to operate it, and what its function is through Xiao Ji's "close first" button logo.

You can also see from the parts that the manufacturer is careful about. As for after-sales cards and adoption cards, I won't go into details. You can have a look at the text after you get it.

Xiaoji (chicken) speaker

In terms of appearance, Mirage Xiaoji is very pleasing. He not only has a frosted body, but also has a transparent chicken comb, a round stomach and two small claws. In addition, he has a pair of small eyes made of LED indicators. It looks like a cute chicken. At the same time, Mirage integrates the control into the design. We can adjust the volume through the cockscomb, and play, pause, and switch the machine on and off by pressing the cock beak. The microphone on the cock beak tells us that this is a speaker that supports voice input. Let's enjoy it:

Xiaoji speaker is designed to be very small and can be held by one hand, so when you go out to play, it doesn't take up space at all. It can also add some fun to your journey and share music with everyone.

Let's have a look at my charming little eyes. They flicker when paired with Bluetooth, and they are always bright when used normally.

The cockscomb part is the volume "+" and "-" buttons, which are very ingenious and easy to use. The high convex part is the volume increase, and the low convex part is the volume decrease. There is absolutely no problem with blind operation.

Chicken beak part is responsible for completing Play, pause and switch on/off operations are completed by short press and long press respectively. There is a small hole in the unfolded chicken beak, which can be seen as a microphone at a glance. The design is very ingenious.

The USB interface is on Xiaoji's back and uses a micro USB interface. The data cable of this type of interface is also relatively common at present. Even if the cable is broken, it is very convenient to find the same cable for Xiaoji. At the same time, there is a phase inversion hole behind him that can bring thick bass to Xiao Ji.

The bottom is equipped with anti slip mat and a pair of cute feet, which feels good.

Finally, let's take a look at the speaker, which is also the most important part. Xiaoji has a built-in full frequency speaker and Class D audio amplifier, which has full sound quality, less distortion, and clear high frequency. The inverted hole behind the body can bring thick bass.

The surface of the speaker is covered with a material similar to wool, which effectively reduces the vibration when playing music.

Operation and function

Xiaoji speaker has two modes: "Bluetooth" and "sound card". In Bluetooth mode, just long press Xiaoji's chicken beak, and when Xiaoji's eyes blink, you will be prompted to enter the Bluetooth mode. Open the Bluetooth of your mobile phone or computer to search for "i-xiaoji", and click the link. Music can be played normally after connection.

If your computer doesn't have Bluetooth, it doesn't matter. Xiaoji provides you with a "sound card" mode. As long as you connect the device with the matching USB cable, it can be used as a normal desktop speaker. After connecting the computer, it is shown as follows:

After connecting the mobile phone Bluetooth, play music. The function of volume key can be set through the phone, for example, short press is to adjust the volume, long press is to cut the song. If there is an incoming call, the concert will automatically stop playing. Click the cock beak to answer the call. Long press the chicken beak to hang up, which is very simple in operation.

As for the sound effect, I think Xiaoji is the best speaker at the same price. The bass is very honest, and the treble has no broken sound. It is very crisp.

Finally, let's talk about the endurance. According to the product introduction, it can last about 5 hours. In the actual test, music can be played continuously for about 4 hours and 48 minutes when the volume is about 80% without interruption. Similar to the theoretical value, it is enough to carry it outside.

summary

After several days of trial, Xiaoji's hidden design makes me feel very good. There are no redundant buttons. I have to admire the imagination of the designer for hiding all the buttons in Xiaoji's body parts. At the same time, the speaker effect is also very good, even when the voice is turned on to the maximum, there is no broken sound. In terms of battery life, it would be better if it could be longer. At present, the battery life of some mainstream Bluetooth speakers in the market is generally controlled at about 10 hours.

In general, this Fantasy Xiaoji Bluetooth speaker is worth getting. The price of 189 yuan for the Bluetooth version is very competitive in the market of the same level. At the same time, Miracle also provides a non Bluetooth version of 129 yuan, which is very practical for home use.

The Mirage Xiaoji Bluetooth speaker will become a necessary cute pet for me in 2017 New Year, and it will add a new life to my desk. It is also a good choice to give it to your loved ones as a New Year gift.
