Review on Smart speaker Yandex Station Mini with clock with Alice, black onyx, 10W by Janis Cerins ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Total disappointment, the product is terrible.

If the backlight was not just coming from above but also from the side when referring to Alice, that would be fantastic. In this scenario, Alice is standing above her eyes, making it difficult to notice the glow. 1) Marriage has come. Within the first hour of our getting to know each other, I became aware of a rattling sound. As a consequence of this, they came to an agreement on a replacement, but when the station was offered at a lower price, they declined it. He "fixed" the speaker by himself by playing music at the highest level possible for a period of four hours. 2) Alice will not send a push notification to the recipient's phone. She claims that she sent, but there has been no response. 3) Alice cautioned that there would only be one album released every month, but according to my subscriptions, new albums are being released at a rate of 15–30 each week. "What's New" doesn't work. 4) Alice has inquired about gaining access to her mail and calendar, but she is unable to perform any actions with either of these features. Simply gathering some information. 5) If you build a script in which Alice needs to send a command to the skill with the phrases "turn on the video" or "night watch" or any of a wide variety of other alternatives, then she will not execute the script, but instead will say "impossible to play the video."

Pros
  • The style is great, and the materials are of high quality. Extremely sensitive microphone that, when used on the phone, listens remarkably well and even better than Google or Alice. It is possible to be perplexed while using Alice as a component of a smart home. It was with the assistance of the Brownie Kuzya skill and the Laitis application that he was able to configure Alice to operate the computer.
Cons
  • Support for technology is awful. Since I've had Alice, today marks the 34th day since I received her, and I'm sad to report that not a single issue has been resolved. I will elaborate on these further in the following remarks. Because I only received one letter (Step 1 of 3, Getting to know Alice), and the remaining letters did not arrive, I do not know what capabilities Alice possesses. Obviously, I was able to locate communities and wikis, but even on those platforms, not everything was explained. I don't remember why I did it, but I randomly substituted music for my alarm clock, and then I struggled for three days to get the default sound back. Regarding this topic, there is no information available. Push does not send. When you pronounce commands, it will sometimes opt to act independently, in which case it will refuse to work and waste time. Despite that, it can be quite comical at times. Since we were unable to fix the push notifications, 69 days have gone. I believe that this is excessive, especially given the lack of help from them. And despite the fact that I enjoy the column, I gave it only one star because it ignored me. There has been no progress made in the last 110 days, and receiving technical support does not resolve the issue. 143 days have gone, and the technical support team continues to post updates regarding the ongoing issues without providing any solutions. Push is not working, "What's new?" is not working, and there are various bugs in the scripts.
