Facebook officially launched its own smart speaker product, hit the face and Xiaodu at home!

The news that Facebook is going to be a smart speaker seems to be an open secret in the technology circle. The social giants have taken a look at the trend of smart speakers, which also means to cater to the trend of technology. But under the long-term fermentation of the "leak door", Facebook's smart speaker product obviously came at a rather late time. After all, how many users would choose to pay for the smart speaker product of a company with security risks?

On one side is the raging smart speaker market, and on the other side is the "bounce" crisis of its own products. It is obvious that some of them will die before they are successful. However, now there is news that Facebook smart speakers have finally officially met with consumers, focusing on video calls. Two models are available, namely Portal and Portal+, priced at US$199 and US$349, respectively. The former is equipped with a 10.1-inch screen. , The latter is equipped with a 15.6-inch screen.

Facebook officially launched its own smart speaker product, hit the face and Xiaodu at home!

According to relevant media reports, yesterday, Facebook officially launched its own smart speaker product. Its biggest highlight is: adding a screen and a wide-angle camera to the smart speaker, trying to provide users with richer functions by configuring the display. Such as watching videos and video calls. It can be seen that even if Facebook, which is the main social network, enters the field of smart speakers, it has no hope of its own advantages. Of course, this is OK.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to the advantages of the screen, Portal also runs an open source version of the Android operating system, and integrates Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant. At the same time, Portal’s wide-angle lens uses artificial intelligence technology that can recognize the body. The shape, so as to achieve auto focus, always keep the user in the picture without adjusting the angle of the device.

It is understood that Portal has been on sale on Amazon, BestBuy and Facebook websites, and will be the first to ship to US users early next month. However, what is interesting is that in terms of the appearance and function of Portal, this product is very similar to the smart speaker "Xiaodu at Home" launched by Baidu before. It is also equipped with a screen, and it is also a boxy appearance. In this regard, some netizens said that in the process of entering smart speakers, Facebook seems to have become Baidu's "foreign apprentice".

What does anyone say? Originally under the pressure of the leak door, under pressure to release a new smart speaker, but accidentally bumped into Baidu's "Xiaodu at home", what is this? As to whether Portal can successfully dispel consumers' concerns about privacy and security, let us wait and see!
