Despite minor mistakes, the company's developments and technologies have entered almost all areas of human activity. This includes technology, taxis, food delivery and many other structures.
Trying to penetrate into various spheres of life, Yandex specialists have created a whole network of interconnected services and production of various products.

What is Yandex. The station and its capabilities
Relatively recently, a version of a “smart” speaker from a Russian company was presented. Outwardly, it really resembles a standard small-sized speaker, similar to a small metal can. But the internal component amazes with its capabilities.
REFERENCE! The so-called Yandex smart speakers are equipped with special voice guidance, just like foreign versions of similar devices.
Among the characteristics and advantages of the model, the following indicators can be highlighted:
- simple design without unnecessary details;
- reasonable price - and taking into account bonuses in the form of free subscriptions to applications, this makes the purchase of the speaker even more profitable;
- good Russian version of voice accompaniment - Alisa;
- high-quality sound;
- Convenient controls on the top panel of the device.
Unfortunately, the company previously had unsuccessful attempts to create its own version by copying ideas from other manufacturers. This time too there were some drawbacks. The disadvantages include:
- A protective case around the perimeter of the speaker degrades the sound quality. It is very thick and the speaker is located at the bottom of the device. Experts say that without it the station sounds better, but in this case its appearance deteriorates.
- The rear panel of the speaker heats up significantly during operation and in standby mode.
- The voice assistant is not fully adapted to the work of the search engine. But this is most likely a matter of time.
Overall a pretty good option for a great price. It will especially appeal to those who are against purchasing equipment from foreign brands. The Russian version of the “smart” speaker copes with the functions quite well and over time its characteristics will become much better.
How to use Yandex Station as a column
As for using the speaker, there shouldn't be any problems. Manufacturers took care to make the station as easy to use as possible. You need to read the instructions and perform simple manipulations:
- Connect the device to the network.
- Connect the station using a cable with an HDMI connector to the TV - an image will be displayed on the screen.
- Use voice guidance to issue commands and launch applications. The main ones are: IVI, Youtube. They plan to add others.
- Using the buttons on the top panel, adjust the volume and microphone operation.
Yandex technology is at an early stage of development, but it already has good opportunities to become a leading brand in the world of high technology.
