A New Era of High Refresh Rate for AI Bestie Machine with Smoother and Lower Latency
"My team and I have been closely observing the emerging trends in home entertainment and living," said Jin Xian, the Product Director of Tmall Genie. "We believe that the single-device-centered experience will rapidly evolve into a human-centered, multi-scenario-driven, and freely diverse experience." In recent years, the Bestie machine, which supports multiple scenarios and free movement, has become the new favorite of the mass consumers. According to the data from Lotu Tech, as of August 2024, the number of available brands of mobile smart screens in the Chinese online market has reached 58, which is nearly twice the number compared to the same period last year.
As one of the key products of this launch event, the Wow Bestie Smart Enjoy Edition stands out for its smooth high refresh rate screen, excellent audio-visual and AI experience, making it the top choice for the quality and price ratio of the Bestie machine. The refresh rate refers to the number of times the screen refreshes the image per second. The higher the refresh rate, the more transitional images are available, and the smoother and more fluid the image effect is. "The value that the high refresh rate brings to users is, first, the ultimate smooth display experience, and second, the low-latency control feedback," Jin Xian said. Compared to the mainstream 60Hz refresh rate of the current Bestie machines, the Wow Bestie Smart Enjoy Edition screen adopts a 100Hz high refresh rate, driving the Bestie machine market into a new era of high refresh rate display.

In terms of image presentation, the Wow Bestie Smart Enjoy Edition is equipped with the self-developed Frameboost technology, which supports intelligent dynamic switching of the screen refresh rate. The high-definition eye-protection large screen, combined with AI HDR enhancement technology and DCI-P3 cinematic-level wide color gamut, enables the smooth image quality to present thousands of colors truly. The professional PQ color tuning restores the real colors and light and shadow details of the lush forests, distant mountains, and other scenes. "The colorful and stunning details are not only pleasing to the eye but also eye-protective," Jin Xian said. The Wow Bestie Smart Enjoy Edition has multiple eye-protection guarantees such as software and hardware blue light protection technology, intelligent light-sensing eye protection, and Rhein Eye Protection Certification, ensuring a comfortable and non-tiring viewing experience even for long periods.

In terms of sound quality performance, the three effects of three-frequency division, sky sound, and Chinese panoramic sound tuning are mutually enhanced, creating an excellent sound quality experience. The three-frequency division midrange independent mid-tone unit improves the clarity and transparency of the film's human voice, and the bottom subwoofer ensures a deep and full low-frequency effect. According to the Product Manager of Tmall Genie, Chui Xi, after the three-frequency division is wirelessly connected to the Tmall Genie X6, it can quickly form a 5.1-channel system. It is a true restoration of the home theater, and through a more immersive 360° surround sound effect, it allows the audience to experience an immersive viewing experience.
