As one of the most popular series under the Xiaomi smart home ecological chain, the sales volume of Xiaoai speakers has always been among the best in the smart speaker market.
On the morning of August 3, the Play Enhanced Edition of Xiaoai Speaker was officially launched. As another masterpiece of the small love speaker at the price of 100 yuan, its actual performance value is not worth this price? Let's take a look.
Classic appearance, time screen display is a bit interesting
Although from the perspective of the product line, the Play Enhanced Edition of the Xiaoai Speaker is a new work of the Play series, but it is actually an update of the Xiaoai Speaker Universal Remote Control Edition.
The pure black color scheme design and the pure white design of the Little Love Speaker Play are less elegant than those, but also a little more low-key. Although it is fixed to a corner most of the time, the small body of the rounded rectangular cylinder is also quite handy to pick up.
The top of the speaker is a volume up/down button, a microphone enable/disable button, and a play/pause button, plus four highly sensitive microphones that pick up voice commands from all around at any time.
Under the fuselage is a dense speaker opening, 2-inch full-range speaker with the layout of the 360° guide cone, so that the sound quality of the Little Love Speaker Play Enhanced Edition is improved compared to the universal remote control version, and the bass part is more stable.
However, the strength of the little love speaker has always been in voice control and IoT interconnection, the overall sound quality performance does not require too much, listen to a ring and it will be finished.
The front of the speaker also bears a familiar "xiaomi" logo. The logo logo of the Little Love Speaker Play Enhanced Edition and the button logo on the top are both printed in gold, and the black and gold contrast each other, looking simple but vibrant.
After powering up, the front of the Play Enhanced Version of the Little Love Speaker will light up with a welcome "HELLO". In daily use, the screen display part of the Little Love Speaker Play Enhanced Edition is to display real-time time,
You can also set the "Night Mode" on the mobile app to make the screen display automatically turn off at a certain time. After turning on the "Night Light" function, the Xiaoai Speaker Play Enhanced Edition will automatically reduce the brightness of the screen when it detects that the environment is dark, and it will not look particularly dazzling at night.
It is worth mentioning that when the user is calling for "little love classmates", there will also be a cute cartoon pattern, and the old husband's girlish heart will overflow.
Infrared remote control, smart & traditional appliances all need
As a member of the XiaoAi Speaker family, the deployment convenience and IoT remote control capability of Xiao Ai Speaker Play Enhanced Edition are naturally top-notch.
When connecting for the first time, just open the "Little Love Speaker" APP, enter the Wi-Fi password to connect to the network according to the prompts, and you can complete the basic configuration in a few simple steps.
Because of the Bluetooth Mesh gateway function, Xiaoai Speaker Play Enhanced Edition can not only control various smart homes through voice, but also provide Bluetooth Mesh networking support for smart door locks, smart bulbs, smart switches and other devices in the room, eliminating the need to purchase a mijia smart gateway separately.
In addition, Xiaoai Speaker Play Enhanced Edition also provides Xiaomi "Invigorating Connection" service, which can realize one-click network distribution when connecting new devices, and can also be automatically synchronized when changing passwords, eliminating the trouble of changing devices one by one.
Although Xiaoai speakers can easily control many Mijia smart devices, in the face of traditional furniture or non-Mijia ecological chain products, ordinary Xiaoai speakers are still powerless.
Xiaoai Speaker Play Enhanced Edition has a built-in 4+1 infrared emission array, which can control traditional TVs, set-top boxes, fans, air conditioners and other home appliances through infrared remote control.
According to the official data, Xiaoai Speaker Play Enhanced Edition can voice remote control about 6000 brand products, basically you have it at home, it can be done.
In terms of audio content, Xiaoai Speaker Play Enhanced Edition has built-in QQ music, children' and audio and other sections, from children's books to rich music libraries.
However, here is a little spit that the play/pause button and the play/pause voice command at the top of the Play Enhanced Edition of the Little Love Speaker can only be used on the audio content in the "Little Love Speaker" APP.
If you are using other software to play music and deliver to the speaker, you can not control the playback/pause in the speaker itself, you can only go back to the phone to operate, more or less inconvenient.
Summary: The most fragrant little love speaker in the 100-yuan price point
In the Xiaomi mall to search for "small love speaker", and then check the products below 150 yuan, the small love speaker Play enhanced version is probably the most fragrant product at this price.
The classic rounded column design, coupled with the calm and low-key black, no matter where it is placed in the home, it will not look obtrusive, and the addition of the screen display also allows the Small Love Speaker Play Enhanced Edition to be used as a clock.
In addition, Bluetooth Mesh, voice control, infrared remote control, a series of intelligent control functions make the Xiaoai Speaker Play Enhanced Edition equipped with the current Xiaoai Speaker more complete IoT remote control function.
Of course, the relatively general sound quality is also a weakness of the Play Enhanced Version of the Xiaoai Speaker, coupled with the fact that the Xiaoai Speaker series cannot operate the "traditional arts" of third-party applications with voice commands, making it somewhat awkward to use.
If you have just started deploying smart homes and plan to start with a meter-based smart speaker to experience, Xiaoai Speaker Play Enhanced Edition is a very good choice.
