Konklusion
Der er ingen tvivl om, at Asus har lavet et produkt her, der henvender sig til dem, der ønsker at kunne udnytte deres musikstreamingstjeneste som Spotify eller lign. på anlægget derhjemme, men uden at skulle ud og udskifte hele systemet, hvis ikke det understøtter trådløs streaming. Så længe der er en stereo indgang i anlægget til 3,5mm eller S/PDIF, kan man med Clique nyde godt af trådløs streaming derhjemme. Hvor god min oplevelse af Clique R100 har været, har i høj grad været afhængig af, hvilken app jeg brugte fra min mobiltelefon. Med standard Jukebox appen fra Qualcomm var det en rodet og til tider frustrerende oplevelse at høre musik. Med et skift til Spotify var det dog en helt anden, og straks mere fornøjelig og velfungerende oplevelse.
Innovation / teknologi - 3
Asus Clique R100 sprænger ikke rammerne for trådløs streamning i hjemmet, men formår at levere et lille og kompakt produkt med gode specifikationer, der sammen med den rette app leverer et godt alternativ til større systemer som Sonos og lign.
Tilbehør - 2
Intet ud over hvad der skal bruges for at komme i gang, så ingen ekstra point for lir her.
Design - 4
Jeg synes personligt godt som designet på den lille enhed, der let og diskret kan parkeres de fleste steder i hjemmet uden at vække opsigt.
Ydelse - 3
Her er den lidt delt, da ydelsen med Jukebox appen til afspilning af lokale filer var en frustrerende oplevelse at bruge med udfald og forbindelsesproblemer. Ved brug sammen med Spotify var der dog slet ikke de samme problemer at spore, og brugen var en fornøjelse. Det må dog trække ned i den samlede karakter, at ydelsen haltede så meget med lokale filer.
Pris - 2
Jeg har ikke kunne finde en pris eller forhandler i DK, men har ved at snuse rundt på nettet set den nævnt i Sverige til omkring 1000 SEK, hvilket giver en DK pris på omkring 800 kr. Hvis det er tilfældet, så synes jeg den ligger i den høje ende, hvis man indregner at skulle indkøbe højttalere, før den kan bruges. Til sammenligning kan et 3rd generation AppleTV købes til omkring 500 kr. og der er ud over musikken også mulighed for at streame video og lign.
UK summary
There's no doubt that Asus has made a product here aimed at the people who want to take advantage of their streaming service at home but doesn't want to upgrade their entire Hi-Fi setup in case it doesn't support streaming. As long as you have a 3.5mm or S/PDIF input in your setup you can enjoy wireless streaming with the Clique R100. My experience with the Clique R100 was to a high degree dependent on what app I was using from my phone. With the standard Jukebox app from Qualcomm it was a messy and at times frustrating experience to listen to music. With the shift to Spotify however it was an entirely different, pleasurable and functioning experience.
Innovation / technology - 3
The Asus Clique R100 is not breaking new ground for music streamning but manages to deliver a small and compact product with great specs that together with the right app offers a good alternative to the bigger systems like Sonos.
Bundle/Accessories - 2
Nothing but the things you need to get started so no bonus points for bling.
Design - 4
Personally I like the design of the little unit that easily and discreetly can be parked most places in your home without catching much attention.
Performance - 3
Here it's pretty split as my experience using the Clique with the Jukebox app for playing local files was a frustration experience with dropouts and lost connections. Using Spotify however there was no problems of the same nature and the Clique was a pleasure to use and listen to. The overall grade however suffers from the poor performance with playing local files.
Price - 2
I have not been able to find a price or a retailer in Denmark. Sniffing around online however I was able to find it mentioned in Sweden at around 1000 SEK with gives us a DK price of around 800 DKK. If this holds true it's in the high end for such a little unit if you take in to account that you need to get speakers as well before you can listen to anything. To compare a 3rd generation Apple TV can be bought at around 500 DKK and offers the possibility to stream video as well as music.
