BERLIN, Aug. 31, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Today at IFA 2018, Anker Innovations, a global leader in charging technology and smart, connected consumer devices, announced a suite of new devices that work with or feature Alexa built-in.
Led by its key brands - EUFY, SOUNDCORE and ROAV - Anker Innovations will showcase a host of exciting new consumer electronic products including premium speakers; a smart Robovac; and smart car experience, all powered by Alexa.
"At Anker Innovations we are committed to bringing smart, connected services to everyone," said Steven Yang, CEO of Anker Innovations. "We are thrilled to continue working with Amazon to integrate voice-forward Alexa experiences across our brands."
CLEAN YOUR FLOOR WITH A SIMPLE VOICE COMMAND
Eufy introduces its new robotic vacuum cleaner, the RoboVac 30C, which is the thinnest and most powerful RoboVac in the market, and works with Amazon Alexa and other voice services.
At only 2.85 in (7.25 cm) tall, the RoboVac 30c is thin enough to clean under most furniture without getting stuck. It also includes a magnetic strip which can be placed on a wall, under a carpet, or on furniture in order to stop the RoboVac from leaving a room or going over a certain place. And with a whopping 1500 Pa of suction power, the RoboVac 30C will have a hard time missing any dust or pet hair.
The Eufy RoboVac 30C will be available in September on Amazon.com for $299.99. Additional information about the RoboVac series or other Eufy smart home products can be found at www.eufylife.com.
SOUNDCORE LIGHTS UP ALEXA
Following the success of Soundcore Flare and the recently released Flare+, the new Soundcore Flare S+ introduces Amazon's Alexa to the ambient light-enhanced Bluetooth speaker series.
As one of the first devices built upon the Alexa Mobile Accessory Kit, Flare S+ connects directly to the Alexa App to provide customers with a streamlined experience to take advantage of the great features available with Alexa. The Flare S+ provides customers with a hands-free voice experience and access to the full suite of tens of thousands of Alexa skills, including: streaming media, smart home control, calendar management, news and weather updates. Flare S+'s light ring glows in Alexa's signature blue and cyan accents to let you know when the device is streaming audio to the cloud.
Beneath Flare S+'s compact and premium cloth covered shell is 360° sound powered by back-to-back full range drivers, dual tweeters, thumping bass radiators, and Soundcore's bespoke BassUp™ technology that intensifies lows for a full distortion-free music experience.
Soundcore Flare S+ will be available this October on Amazon.com for $129.88. Additional information on Soundcore Flare Series can be found at www.soundcore.com.
NEVER HIT THE ROAD ALONE
Following the successful release of the Alexa-enabled Roav VIVA at CES 2018, Roav continues to update the smart driving experience with VIVA Pro.
In addition to supporting tens of thousands of Alexa skills, the new VIVA Pro also adds AUX-Out and FM transmission, allowing the device to connect to virtually any car. VIVA Pro will also deliver calling and messaging (coming soon), music streaming, voice-initiated navigation, and two fast-charging ports to keep mobile devices charged while on the road.
VIVA Pro is currently available on Amazon for $72.99.
