Revainrating 5 out of 5

Side table - modernized!

This ZKI Smart End Table measures 19.68 x 19.68 x 18 inches and weighs 15 pounds. This ZKI Smart End Table can act as a traditional side table but offers smart features including 4 speakers (two 12W midrange drivers and two 8W tweeters) which can be accessed via Bluetooth 5.0 or via the 3 headphone jack 0.5mm can be accessed. built-in desktop power supply and protection class IP44 against dust and water. I've been using this desk for over a month and am impressed with both its form and functionality. When guests arrived, they were often amazed when they heard the surrounding noise. and not from speakers embedded in walls or ceilings. What impressed my guests even more was the table's ability to double as a charging station. What I liked most about this ZKI Smart End Table was: - Smart features. There are many technologies implemented in this side table, but after 6 weeks of use I liked the IP44 water resistance rating and the functionality of the charging station the most. Amazingly powerful speaker system. The speakers on this ZKI Smart End Table produce a warm sound with just enough volume to fill a small room. Aesthetics. I like the way this speaker looks. Although it's a bit small and low, it looks great with black or gray furniture. What I liked least about this ZKI Smart End Table is: - No smart home integration. I felt that ZKI missed an opportunity to make this smart side table more user-friendly by not making it compatible with Google Assistant, Alexa, or Apple Home products. I was able to work my way through some of the Alexa content through the Fire TV Cube, which comes with a 3.5mm output built into the back of the device. - No remote control. If ZKI wanted to skip the smart home integration, buyers would have to get a remote to access RGB lighting controls and a power button for charging. - No USB C or fast charging. This smart table from ZKI is charged via a micro USB port and charges external objects very slowly. While I couldn't find any specs for the wireless charging pad or the USB-A charging port on the side table, my guess is that the charging pad only has a 5W surface while the USB-A port appears to be of the 1A variety. They both charge slowly externally, so you'll definitely want to use this as an overnight charger. All in all, if you're in the desktop tabletop market and looking for something eye-catching and unique, this offering from ZKI is worth a good, long look. . This intelligent ZKI table offers an amazingly powerful speaker system, RGB lighting, a charging station and is dust and waterproof to IP44. Even if I hadn't taken advantage of this table's smart features, its water resistance would have been far more convenient than I care to admit. While I was very pleased with this ZKI side table, it wasn't flawless. The ZKI had to make this table compatible with intelligent assistants or at least provide a remote control. ZKI also had to add more efficient loading options than the slow loading ones. However, the aesthetics of this ZKI table combined with the wide range of features it offers makes it a very attractive proposition. 4.5 out of 5.0.
