Connected and smart homes are the order of the day. In the case of smart speakers, the first move was made by Amazon with its Amazon Echo and the virtual assistant Alexa. However, its expansion outside of the United States is being delayed more than usual and now it will have a difficult time to compete with other manufacturers. The last to join was Panasonic with its SC-GA10 model.
This straight-shaped speaker is smart. It is one more model that has been presented during the IFA and that adds to Sony's bet. Now, as we told you, the shapes of this speaker are more conservative. Although it is not less attractive for that, on the contrary.
It has a Bluetooth connection as well as a Jack 3,5 mm inlet. That is, you can connect any sound source that comes to mind. Meanwhile, to control it we will have two options: use the touch controls on the top or use the application that Panasonic will distribute when it is launched on the market. Panasonic SC-GA10.
Likewise, this application will not only help us to increase / decrease volume or configure it, but also this Panasonic SC-GA10 can work with multiple units. So the sound can be distributed from one room to another by simply pressing on the mobile screen or tablets.
As for the more technical sound part, this smart speaker with Google Assistant has two 20-millimeter tweeters and an 8-millimeter woofer. In addition, the manufacturer refers to that they will cover the needs of the public since it can offer 180-degree surround sound. As if all this were not enough, the Panasonic SC-GA10 is compatible with services streaming like Spotify among others, in addition to being able to work in parallel with a Google Chromecast.
The speaker will arrive at the beginning of next year 2018. You can get it in two shades: white or black. However, for the moment its sale price has not transcended.
