Review on Facebook Portal Plus - 15.6” Smart Video Calling Display with Alexa - Black by Marco Wilson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Video calling works great, everything else is mediocre or immature.

Just received the device. Made a few calls, call quality is excellent! Camera tracking is okay, but not very good (tracking not fast enough or gets pixelated for a few seconds). Worst of all is anything else which is a bummer as the unit is very expensive so I planned on using it as a replacement for my Revain Echo. Main problems: * The sound quality is not so good at high frequencies, and the partial range is much better and stronger, so it appears uneven. * AI super week. If it's the superframe algorithm (screensaver) for selecting my facebook pictures or as an assistant, then even lower than the standard Alexa. I hope that this will all improve over time. * Missing applications. Apart from Spotify and the Facebook clock, there is nothing special there. I would end up buying a smaller device and just using the device for making phone calls.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
