Birds and robots. MP3 players / souvenirs

    In the wake of the popularity of smartphones in general and various colorful games, in particular, the production of various related products based on these games began to develop more actively. And if you don’t surprise anyone with the merchandise for a popular computer game or a new film, then the characters of popular smartphone games have come into our life relatively recently. And, of course, our Chinese brothers are actively involved in the production of such products.

    Today I will tell you about the device that came to me for a test from the Celestial Empire, but it is officially delivered, which means there is a guarantee for this device.
    I'm talking about android, the symbol of the same name operating system for smartphones.
    Some time ago, photos of a toy of this kind had already come across, but there was only a toy there, and here - something more. Let's get a look.

    Unpacking

    So, before us is the box in which the device itself is located, a cord for connecting to a computer and a stand. Instructions for use are pasted on the box itself, inside there is a supplier’s brochure.

    What can this wonderful android do?

    Firstly, it is an FM radio and mp3 player. The device supports memory cards, songs must be uploaded directly to the root of the card. I could not play the tracks recorded in the folder. Volume, track switching and radio station search are controlled by turning the head of the robot, play / stop - by clicking on the head.

    The built-in speaker is responsible for playing music, it is located at the bottom of the device, a stand is needed in order to raise the device above the table and not muffle the sound.

    The remaining controls and interfaces are located on the back of the robot: MiniUsb port, power on, microSD card slot.

    MP3 playback works without problems, as I wrote above, tracks must be put in the root directory. I was not able to achieve the intelligible operation of the radio, but testing was carried out on the second floor of a 9-storey building, because I do not like synthetic tests in greenhouse conditions.

    Secondly, you can use the device as an audiobook or to broadcast podcasts, similarly uploading files to the card.

    Thirdly, when connected to a computer, the android acts as an external speaker, so it can be a cool office accessory. One has only to make sure that your musical taste matches the taste of colleagues, as the speaker volume is enough to listen to music for the whole office.

    The robot's hands move, but this does not carry any functional load, except for aesthetic. :)

    And he also glows cool.

    Of course, both the robot and the birds can be used as a portable speaker for portable devices, for example, for a PocketBook reader, to listen to music on vacation.

    In addition, there are still similar devices in the form of Angry Birds. There are a number of significant differences from the player in the form of a robot from the birds: in particular, the birds have a 3.5 jack jack instead of miniUSB, the column is located at the top and is hidden behind plastic. Accordingly, the wire comes with a slightly different configuration, it has two 3.5 jack and 1 USB plugs for connecting to a computer.

    I will say a few words about what I did not like.

    Basically, this is a complaint about the appearance of the devices, since it is not worth a priori to expect Hi-End sound from a portable office speaker. Android is made with high quality and close to the original, but the colors cause some bewilderment. “Native” light green color - super, but the dark blue robot is not so pleasing to the eye.

    As for the birds, the manufacturer did not show much attention to detail, all color variations of the birds are identical in shape and completely copied from the original red bird from the first level of the game. Something tells me that if they were even a little more diverse, they could have been more successful.

    As a summary: A nice and inexpensive gift for a teenage child, geek or spending a lot of time at the computer.
