Xiaomi Populele APP cu LED-uri USB Bluetooth inteligent ukulele 1pc

Considered “the world’s first smart ukulele.” the Populele was not something i knew about “smart ukulele”.

Once the box arrived, I was impressed with the presentation. It comes with a nice sturdy box which held the ukulele and all accessories : canvas case, extra strings, picks, capo, and a USB cable.

Note that after a successful run on Indiegogo earlier, PopuBand Music's smart ukulele is now on general sale. Combining app-based smarts with follow-me LED lighting, the company is promising students of the uke that they'll be strumming their first song within 15 minutes.

The ukulele felt solid and well put together. The Populele is a concert size ukulele and really feels great. Note that the fretboard is made of black plastic, as it is what makes this a smart ukulele since the fretboard lights up the LEDs.

What makes the Populele a smart ukulele is the USB Bluetooth device located on the side of the instrument. The USB is used to charge the ukulele and the Bluetooth is used to connect with the Populele App, from an Android or iOS device.

Populele easily pairs with any smartphone via its Android or iOS app, then it will go through a simple tuning process.

The gamified experience really makes sure you can progress little by little and can play your first notes within 15 minutes.

It works !

Die Lieferung nach Deutschland hat knapp 3Wochen gedauert. Tracking dabei war sehr genau.

Die Ukulele selber macht einen wertigen Eindruck und die bedienelemente ebenso. Der klang hört sich auch gut an. Desweiteren ist eine Tasche(eher ein Sack) mit dabei. Kleinigkeiten wie, Kapodaster, Ersatzsaiten, und zwei Plektrums auch enthalten. Gurtinpins sind auch schon dran.

Geladen wird mit Mikro USB. Dabei ist mir aufgefallen, bei fast leeren Akku bricht die Bluetooth Verbindung ab. Hat bei mir etwas gedauert, bis ich gemerkt habe das der Akku leer ist. (eine einzelne LED blinkt)

Die Software dabei ist komplett auf Englisch und bietet genug zum lernen der Ukulele. Zu Beginn gibt es eine Einführung und anschließend eine kurze Erklärung zur Haltung und zum stimmen. Das ganze wird mit einem kleinne Quiz abgerundet.
Danach kann man die Spiele beginnen, wir man ganz langsam ans spielen rangetastet wird. Zusätzlich gibt es noch eine Bibliothek mit Musik Titel.

Also im ganzen bin ich sehr zufriden und hab viel Spaß mit der Gurtinpins Xiaomi Populele.

Lo strumento e' ben costruito, i materiali sono discreti e assemblati con cura. La spedizione e' normalmente lunga, una quindicina di giorni. Non e' amplificabile se non con l'aggiunta di un pickup esterno. Suona anche non collegato, il bluetooth serve solo a connetterlo con la app, che e' divertente sia per un neofita che per un esperto. Il cavo usb e' per caricarlo, nient'altro. Nella confezione ci sono l'ukulele, una sacca carina, le corde di ricambio, due plettri, il manuale in cinese (la app in inglese va scaricata dal play store se android), il cavo usb, ma manca (e questa cosa mi ha fatto inc...re non poco) il capotasto mobile, che non conosco la lingua ma ho capito che ne hanno cancellato col bianchetto la menzione nel contenuto della confezione riportato sulla scatola. Ad ogni modo ne vale la spesa. Suona bene e anche le meccaniche sono solide e l'accordatura regge. Diamogli una possibilita' dunque.

Populele U1 combines ukulele and tutorial for her. In Play Market there is an app Populele, for learning to play the instrument. Delivery took a little less than a month. For a person who has not played a musical instrument earlier fits perfectly. I liked the tutorial, after 3-5 days you will be able to play a simple melody yourself.

Now the bad news. On the way someone tried to open the package, cut the box with a knife, scratched the guitar neck, almost cut one string. This slightly spoiled the impression of the purchase. In addition, there were no mediators included. I appealed to the support of the store, I was offered to return the guitar to send a new one. But I began to learn to play, and I didn't want to wait another month. Therefore I asked for a partial refund. Support agreed to my proposal.
