A few days ago, Xiaomi 9 press conference has been held. At the press conference, Xiaomi launched three new machines, namely Xiaomi 9, Xiaomi 9 transparent exclusive edition and Xiaomi se. The three new products immediately attracted the attention of many consumers. After the release of Xiaomi 9, the most expected Xiaomi product is Xiaoai touch screen sound. What are the highlights of Xiaoai touch screen sound? This article introduces the highlights of Xiaoai touch screen sound for the fight.
Based on the trust in Xiaomi's ecological chain, rather than an upgraded speaker of Xiaoai, I prefer to see it as a new "test" of Xiaomi in the aiot market. Smart speaker products with screen have been tried by Amazon and apple abroad, Baidu, tmall and even Lenovo in China, but this market has not been activated.
Why?
First, consumers have a vague perception of the application scene of the voice controlled smart speaker with a screen (and a small screen). Second, the price is not close to the people, which directly stifles consumers' desire to try new products.
Previously, Xiaomi intelligent hardware executives said that 'Xiaomi will not make a screen speaker with fuzzy use scenes', and finally he did it. It can be speculated that they should have a clear positioning for this device - smart home control center.
Although it has not been actually sold, it is not difficult to infer its core positioning from the function of Xiaoai touch screen speaker officially announced.
1. It can control Xiaomi intelligent devices
Thanks to Xiaomi's perfect smart home category, Xiaoai touch screen speakers have usage scenarios beyond the application scope of other similar products. For example, control the air conditioner, air purifier, camera and the visual doorbell scene displayed in the press conference.
Having a screen (even if it is very small) can fill the limitations of Xiaoai AI speaker in controlling home devices, so that it can fully bear the C-bit of smart home control!
2. One too many devices, many ways to play
What is the equivalent of a touch-screen version of Xiaoai speaker?
Smart speaker + smart alarm clock + tablet.
It has almost all the functions of Xiaoai speaker. After having the screen, it can also customize the alarm clock function, which can completely replace Xiaomi alarm clock. Its four inch display can not only view news, but also watch massive videos. It can do all the common functions of tablet.
Such an all-round and multi-dimensional play is still attractive.
Therefore, the superiority of Xiaomi ecological chain in the layout of smart home is more obvious. Xiaomi can do what other similar products can do, but what Xiaomi can do is far less than that of other brands.
Of course, at this stage, the touch-screen version of Xiaoai speaker can only be regarded as an attempt. There are surprises, but the limitations are also obvious. The screen is still a little too small. If you really want to take a 4-inch screen to see the video, there are still some limitations. After all, it has no advantages compared with the mobile phone.
At present, the price of Xiaoai touch-screen speaker has not been announced. It will open the public beta on February 28, which is estimated to be some time away from the official sale. If you are interested in this kind of product, you can pay attention to it in the near future. Of course, you can also choose similar products of other brands.
