AI artificial intelligence that understands users best Skyworth 50Q5A TV review

IT168 Review If the most popular technology in the television field is now, it has to be "artificial intelligence"! At the just-concluded AWE, we saw that many domestic and foreign color TV manufacturers are vigorously promoting the development of artificial intelligence TV, and many new products have been launched. Now, Skyworth, a leading domestic home appliance company, has given its own "answer": the new artificial intelligence TV Q5A. It uses the Hummingbird AI chip exclusively developed by Skyworth, which can independently perform deep learning based on a giant database. It is the first to realize AI picture quality, AI voice and AI ecosystem, bringing high-quality human-computer interaction services, realizing remote voice interaction and intelligent devices at home. control as you wish.

Today, the 50-inch TV in the Skyworth Q5A series for mainstream consumers: 50Q5A was the first to come to our IT168 evaluation room. It is more targeted at young people in terms of design, audio and video configuration, and content. It is built based on the usage habits and is more likely to inspire young people's enthusiasm. I believe that everyone, like the author, can’t wait to know its actual performance. The following is a detailed evaluation part for you.

Detailed explanation of appearance design and product technology

TV is the center of entertainment in the family living room. In this era of "appearance", good design is an extremely important consideration, and Skyworth 50Q5A It is a very representative product. It adopts the popular minimalist style, and its biggest feature is that it is equipped with a "full screen". From the front, the existence of the frame is almost imperceptible, which can greatly expand the viewer's field of vision and bring a more immersive experience.

The back of the fuselage adopts a pure white color scheme that is rare on TVs at present. The integrated simple design is very simple and clean. At the same time, the base and bracket adopt the same silver color to ensure the aesthetics of the whole design and can be well integrated with the modern home environment.

Let’s take a look at the details of the appearance. First of all, the frame part has been introduced before. The outer part is formed by bending the metal backplate at one time, and the inner part is The integrated screen has a slight bezel that can only be seen when it is turned on. At the same time, the seams of the whole machine are relatively tight, and the workmanship is worthy of recognition.

Powerful artificial intelligence system voice control experience

When it comes to intelligence before, many other brands of TVs have also launched it, but it is only limited to application installation and interconnection with mobile phones. Although they all support voice input, the user experience is very poor. The voice recognition rate is low, only fixed grammar can be input, there are few applicable scenarios, and remote control is required for close operation. I believe that most people have used it. Once you use it you won't use it again. The latest Skyworth 50Q5A is equipped with the newly developed Hummingbird AI chip, which can be said to have achieved breakthroughs in three aspects: image quality, voice and ecology.

First of all, let’s talk about the voice and ecological experience (image quality is introduced separately on the next page). The artificial intelligence voice system of Skyworth 50Q5A allows users to say goodbye to complicated operation steps. According to what you convey commands, accurately identify and respond quickly. As long as you say the name of the movie or TV series, you can watch it in one second, which is a super convenient experience. The 50Q5A can respond quickly and implement basic functions such as changing channels, finding movies, playing, fast forwarding, etc.

▲Skyworth 50Q5A’s artificial intelligence voice experience

In terms of intelligence level, Skyworth 50Q5A can handle long sentences and fuzzy words through artificial intelligence algorithms, powerful computing power and big data. Intelligent recognition of sentences, such as "I want to watch the TV series starring Yang Mi", "Hunan Satellite TV's programs", "Oscar-winning movies", "Today's stock market", etc., can be accurately recognized and displayed correctly.

Search for "science fiction film"

Q5A also adds a step-by-step filtering function. In the interface displayed by the search, you can search again to narrow down the selection. range to find the videos you want to watch more accurately.

For example, search for "science fiction film" and continue to say "starring Jackie Chan" in the pop-up interface to display all science fiction films starring Jackie Chan; or search for "How is the weather in Harbin?" and when the weather forecast box pops up, If you search for "What clothes should I wear?", reasonable suggestions will be given, which can be said to be very practical.

▲You can filter again in the search results

▲Accurate identification and accurate reply

What’s even more awesome is that Skyworth Q5A also has built-in artificial intelligence voice recognition function. Currently, special functions such as video recognition and video encyclopedia are supported. For example, when watching any video content, when a person appears on the screen, the user can press and hold the voice control key to ask "Who is this?" and the screen will be given in the form of a card. Actor basic information, if multiple characters appear on the screen, switching display is also supported.

▲Voice button to ask "Who is this?"

Some brands have built this function before, but it only supports a few "developed" videos, which is particularly useless. However, Skyworth Q5A's artificial intelligence voice recognition is truly accurate and practical. In any video resource, it can automatically identify relevant celebrity actors based on their facial features, even those who are less popular, have less clear picture quality, or are foreign actors. They can also be accurately identified, which makes me impressed again by Skyworth TV’s AI.

▲The picture is not very clear, and it can be accurately identified even in relatively dark conditions

Through cooperation with Baidu, Skyworth 50Q5A also It can transform into an "encyclopedia" at home. Through the built-in semantic recognition function, it can give more intelligent search feedback. As long as it is a question you can think of, no matter how unpopular it is, there will be corresponding feedback. In addition, it is still being continuously learned and enriched, and its backend semantic library is also being continuously expanded and improved.

▲More intelligent search feedback

There is another function that needs recognition, that is, Skyworth 50Q5A also achieves cross-software and cross-platform intelligent voice search functions, such as "Hunan Satellite TV", it will intelligently jump to play directly. In the same way, the copyrights of many TV programs are scattered on different video platforms. Now, through smart voice, you can automatically install the relevant APP programs for you and automatically request the content you want to watch. It can be said that it is much more convenient than before! This is something that many other brands of TVs have not yet achieved.

▲Smart voice can also search across software and platforms

Smart interconnection is also the future development direction. Imagine returning home from a busy day and remotely controlling the appliances in your home through voice How comfortable it will be, this Skyworth 50Q5A achieves this. It has a built-in intelligent control center that can control washing machines, refrigerators, air conditioners, water purifiers and other home appliances. And according to reports, more smart home appliances will be added in the future to form a complete ecosystem and become the center of the entire smart home.

In addition to the remote smart voice and smart home appliance control mentioned above, Skyworth 50Q5A also has " With the "Screen Casting" function, you can download the "TV Pie" APP software through your smartphone. As long as you log in to your account and connect to your smart TV (network set-top box), you can realize functions such as mobile phone remote control, installation of software on the TV, mobile phone projection of pictures, and video on demand. For This is great news for people with severe "mobile phone dependence".

▲Mobile phone screen projection function

Summary: Currently the most natural, accurate and efficient artificial intelligence system in the TV industry, it can also control other smart appliances in the home, bringing Better user experience. Therefore, we can draw this conclusion: "With an AI chip, it is a true AI TV!"
