Review on Smart speaker Yandex Station 2 with Alice, black anthracite, 30W by Micha Korkosz ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

If you need a smart assistant, then I advise you to take the Mini Station with a clock, if you need a "smart home" on an open standard, then it makes sense to think about buying Station 2. Bottom line: The team has trained a very cool neuron, but there is still room for improvement in terms of devices. If you like Alice and don’t really care about the cons of a smart home, then feel free to take it, I haven’t found any problems with pairing smart devices with a column. If you want to build a fail-safe smart home, then it is better to wait for the next product or consider solutions from other companies.

Pros
  • - Ability to build a "smart home" based on the ZigBee standard. - Good sound (not a music lover, please do not throw stones).
Cons
  • - Lack of HDMI connector - The microphone picks up commands worse than Station Mini with a clock. - No display - The smart home is implemented at the level of a toy for geeks, since there are 3 points of failure at once: 1. Wi-Fi (if the Internet is gone, then the column from "smart" turns into "stupid"). 2. Dependent on power (no power, no notification). 3. Until now, the system of push notifications has not been implemented on any of the mobile systems (I do not take into account the e-mail carrier, since this is an obvious crutch that will not work without Telegrama). If you need a good security system, I recommend adding 10 to the price tag and buy a full-fledged system that will have an independent power source and a backup communication channel through the operator's SIM card.
