You probably won’t find amazing audio quality in the 2-watt speaker, but it does have an array of six microphones, allowing for a five-meter activation distance. It also uses echo cancellation and beamforming technology. It features a Cortex-A53 quad-core CPU, 256 MB of RAM and 256 MB of internal memory. In comparison, the Invoke uses seven microphones, utilizing echo cancellation and noise reduction for clear voice input. It features three woofers and three dome tweeters but comes in at $100+.
A Low-cost Alternative
The Yeelight clearly targets the lower end, which is what Xiaomi does best, and it uses a tried and tested design to do so. The speaker is almost a clone of the Echo Dot, with similar dimensions, looks, and specs. The only real difference is its white color.
