The eMeet OfficeCore M2 is a smart speaker phone coming with AI (artificial intelligence) that we’ve previously covered here at GizChina.
Among its features, what really makes it differ from other options, is the smart LED notifications functionality.
When the feature is activated you can indeed:
- Use the LED to indicate the direction from where the person is talking, so you can figure out whether your sound is picked up or not.
- When you want to check battery levels, short press the power button and the LED will turn green to display how much battery you have left.
- When you mute microphone array, LED turns red immediately to show the status of the microphone.
- When you increase or decrease the volume, the LEDs will display the amount of volume currently set on the device.
- There’s an “humanized interactive experience LED feature”, which makes the product feel somewhat emotional.
Compared to the previous generation eMeet OfficeCore M1, the M2 comes with various new features:
- AUX IN: 3.5mm aux audio in, can connect smartphone’s earphone jack; can link traditional telephone to make telephone be a smartphone conference speaker.
- AUX OUT: 3.5mm aux audio out, can link high-power loudspeaker box to make more powerful sound
- Touch button: Good design, business style
Meanwhile other improvements include:
- Powerful sound output increased by 300%
- Microphone pick-up distance increased by 150%
- AI algorithm for noise suppression and echo cancellation increased by 200%
- Full duplex calling effect increased by 180%, which is the first Full Duplex speakerphone, for something like online phone calls
- Touch buttons experience increase 150%
The OfficeCore M2 is also expected to feature a multi-party conference mode, but it’ll only be available later on.
