Yandex introduced the first portable speaker with Alice — Station Street
Sales of a new smart speaker from Yandex Street Station have started today. This is the first portable speaker with Alice's voice assistant, which can fully work not only at home, but also outside.
IT-World has already familiarized itself with the new product and is ready to share its impressions in the test review. According to the developers, it is convenient to take the Street station with you wherever you go — for a picnic, a walk, a workout or a trip. It is protected from dust and moisture according to the IP67 standard, which allows it to be used even outdoors in any weather. The speaker can run on battery power for up to 12 hours without recharging.Image: Yandex Press Service
If you connect the speaker to Wi-Fi via a mobile hotspot, it can not only play music, but also answer questions, set timers, and execute other commands. Even without the Internet, the Station continues to work: you can start music via Bluetooth, and control it by voice. She understands commands like "louder", "further" or "stop" offline as well — this is a unique feature for portable speakers from Yandex.Image: Yandex Press Service
The speaker is equipped with two speakers and two passive radiators with a total power of 30 watts. The sound adjusts to the surrounding space — the speaker determines where it is located: indoors or outdoors, and selects the appropriate sound mode. The settings can also be changed manually via the Home with Alice app.
The station supports the "Play everywhere" mode, which allows you to synchronize music playback on multiple speakers on the same Wi-Fi network. This is convenient if you are in a large company, but do not want to lose the musical accompaniment.
The case of the device is durable, with a convenient removable strap — the speaker can be hung on a backpack or placed next to you. At the same time, Alice can warn you if water gets into the connector and remind you to dry the device.Image: Yandex Press Service
The Street Station is already available for purchase in Alice's official store, and will be available in major retail chains across the country within a week.
