·Preface:

Today, with the increasing popularity of the intelligent life era, intelligent digital products have evolved from the initial look and listen to to the smart and control. Many products have gradually changed from the original passive type to the active and interactive form, and PTZ intelligent camera was born with the trend. As the leading brand of smart home under Xiaomi, Mijia Xiaobai launched a smart camera this year. This smart camera has added some smart links and interactive links of Mijia Internet on the basis of ordinary smart cameras. Today, Dawn was lucky to get the real machine, so we can learn how smart Xiaobai is!

【1】 Product unpacking

The packaging of Mijia Xiaobai smart camera continues the mainstream product packaging style of Xiaomi generation. There is not much decoration on the pure white hard packaging, only a Xiaobai body product drawing, and there are some product logos and information on the back of the packaging. Open the package, and the internal products are safely fixed in the package by soft cotton. Pure white packaging, pure white machine, feel unique every minute.

Generally, there are few accessories for such products. Except for a 2m power cord and a DC plug, Mijia Xiaobai Smart Camera doesn't have many free gifts. In addition, there is a foldable manual, which describes some matters, including links and use.

【2】 Product details

The first impression of Mijia Xiaobai intelligent camera on Dawn is that it is more powerful than similar products. The appearance of Mengmeng adopts some anthropomorphic designs. The whole fuselage is made of SABIC substrate, which feels a little smooth and reflective. In addition to the center of the camera and the surrounding infrared probe, Xiaobai is white all over the body, which is also the origin of Xiaobai's name.

Xiaobai's camera is a 4-megapixel F1.8 camera with a resolution of 1080p. It can be said that intelligent cameras have started the 1080P era. This black big eye conceals 10 940nm light pollution free infrared fill lights. The black material outside is a professional infrared mask. There is also a light sensor under the lens, which will enable night vision mode in case of insufficient light.

The side of Xiaobai's fuselage is a Φ 0.8mm CNC speaker, and some dot matrix loudspeaker holes are added to its appearance. In terms of sound production, Xiaobai's voice is relatively loud among similar products. Let's put it this way, under normal circumstances in a 100 square meter room, Xiaobai's voice can run through almost every corner.

Mijia Xiaobai intelligent camera is equipped with a solid button with a large pressing area on the front of the camera body. The button is slightly protruding, and Mijia LOGO is engraved inside. This button can wake up Xiaobai's interaction function at any time. Click the button to interact with Xiaobai, and long press to open the conversation function with the mobile phone APP.

At the bottom of the fuselage, you can see the small white expansion area, including the SD card slot (the maximum expansion supports 32G), the reset button, and the DC power interface. During the use, I found that Xiaobai's power interface was a little stiff, and it was hard to plug in and out. The design position of the expansion area of the whole machine is placed on the chassis to ensure the integration and beauty of the small white body.

Xiaobai's fuselage base adopts the gray paint that distinguishes itself from the fuselage. The entire base is inlaid with a slightly protruding anti-skid rubber pad. At dawn, experiments were conducted on both the wooden tea table and the glass table top, and the anti-skid effect is pretty good. There is a logo of Mijia in the bottom center, and next to it is the product delivery information and a QR code. It can be seen from this that Xiaobai is different from other products. From the beginning of design, Xiaobai wanted to make it a desktop product without some hanging or wall hanging reservations.

【3】 Intelligent linkage

As a smart home product, intelligent linkage is one of the necessary functions. Xiaobai's intelligent linkage is much simpler than other products! Because of the strong support of Mijia APP, it is very simple to link and use. The main interface includes three functions: recording, telephone, photographing and the following direction control buttons. In the bottom album, you can view the photos taken at any time and set the normal working hours of daily Xiaobai.

When you open the Mijia APP, you can directly see the linked Mijia Xiaobai. Click the icon to directly use it. It's convenient not to use it! As one of Xiaobai's main functions, the voice and video phone is also very convenient to use. As long as you click the phone function on the main interface after linkage, you can directly dial and call, and the other party can interact without any response.

In the setting center, we can see some switch settings, including indicator tone, indicator light and intelligent interaction, as well as infrared night vision function requirements. Because of Xiaobai's design orientation, Dawn has not found functions such as shooting image inversion in it Although Xiaobai is defined as a desktop product, Dawn personally feels that similar functions should appear in future updates.

【4】 Comparative evaluation

In addition to Xiaobai, we also invited a fellow disciple today! It is Xiaoyi's latest 1080P PTZ camera (commonly known here as Xiaohei). Xiaobai is slightly larger than Xiaohei in both volume and weight, and its materials and camera rotation methods are different.

In terms of steering angle, although both cameras can shoot 360 degrees without dead angle, they are unable to achieve full lateral rotation. In terms of vertical perspective, Xiaohei's 115 degrees is 30 degrees bigger than Xiaobai's 85 degrees. The reason for this is that Xiao'anxiaohei PTZ supports inverted and side hanging, while Xiaobai can only be used horizontally for the time being.

Picture quality comparison: First of all, let's make a statement at dawn. This is an unfair comparison because the parameters of the two devices are quite different. Although both cameras are 1080P HD, the small white camera is 4 million pixels, and the small black camera is 2 million pixels. On the focal length, the light white is 3.6mm, and the light black is 2.8mm. In terms of wide-angle, Xiaohei's 112 degrees is higher than Xiaobai's 100.2 degrees. It can be said that there are some differences. After all, the price difference is nearly 100RMB!

According to the demonstration of the samples in normal light, light and night vision mode, we can see that although they are both 1080P, the difference of 2 million pixels still extends the imaging effect. In terms of color restoration, white is more accurate, while black is too high in contrast. In terms of details, the detail sharpness of Xiaohei is higher than that of Xiaobai, and Xiaobai is too smeared in some cases. The two products have their own advantages in imaging, but due to different parameters, they cannot be compared and are only for reference.

【5】 Other functions

Many people have been asking, where is Xiaobai strong? In fact, in addition to being an intelligent PTZ camera, Xiaobai is also compatible with voice recognition interactive devices, which can interact with multiple devices together with Xiaomijia's smart home system! For example, if you want to use the air purifier at home at dawn, just say to Xiaobai: Xiaobai Xiaobai. Turn on Xiaomi air purifier. Xiaobai will open the air purifier and respond accordingly after a short time of recognition.

In addition to linkage equipment, Xiaobai also has its own voice interaction assistant. When you say to Xiaobai: Xiaobai looks over, Xiaobai will locate the sound direction through dual MIC and turn the camera to you. You can flirt with this little guy at any time, such as asking about the weather, the date, or let him tell you a story, or explain something. After testing, Xiaobai's speech recognition is quite high, but the recognition range is limited. If it is too far away, Xiaobai cannot hear it.

In addition to normal video calls and other functions, users with pets at home will have more fun! For example, when working or not at home, you can always see whether your Wang Xingren are naughty! Occasionally, you can use Xiaobai to flirt with your Wang Xingren When I saw Wang Xingren's expression, I felt helpless.

·Summary of evaluation:

As a product of Xiaomijia, Xiaobai is different from Xiaoyi, an intelligent PTZ with more accurate characterization, and prefers an intelligent module. In addition to the most basic PTZ camera functions, interaction and voice control are the places where individuals see Xiaobai at dawn. The ants are better at cost performance and professional monitoring. Personally, I think it would be better if Xiaobai could add some foundation to the flexibility of use on the premise of having interactive functions, such as hanging or side hanging. I always feel that the current Xiaobai has not played its real strength, and I hope that in the future, Mijia Xiaobai can develop more fun and interesting ways to play with other products of Mijia!
