Summary of the review

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Edifier Huazai New Cyber

  • Unique cyberpunk visual design that closely resembles a mini gaming PC rig
  • Rich 2.1-channel sound system combining a 4-inch subwoofer and dual mid-high drivers
  • Multifunctional 2.8-inch color screen capable of showing real-time PC metrics, synchronized song lyrics, or custom animations
  • Doubles as a practical desktop hub with built-in 35W USB-A and USB-C fast-charging ports
  • Versatile multi-source connectivity supporting Bluetooth, USB, and 3.5mm AUX inputs
  • Highly customizable RGB ambient lighting effects controlled easily via an app

What customers don't like about Edifier Huazai New Cyber

  • Polarizing visual aesthetic that does not fit minimalist or traditional office setups
  • Bulky form factor that takes up a considerable amount of desk real estate
  • Lacks real portability due to its desktop-centric size and lack of a built-in travel handle or case
  • Limited availability with sales primarily restricted to specific import or regional markets
  • The screen requires a direct USB connection to a PC to display advanced hardware statistics like CPU or GPU loads

Verdict

The Edifier Huazai New Cyber is a desktop Bluetooth speaker boasting a unique mini-gaming PC aesthetic with a transparent upper shell, a 2.8-inch color screen that displays custom animations or PC system metrics, and vibrant RGB lighting with 16.8 million colors. This 2.1-channel multimedia system is powered by dual Class-D amplifiers delivering 60W RMS (with a 120W peak) through a 4-inch subwoofer, two 52mm mid-high drivers, and three passive radiators. Key advantages include modern Bluetooth 6.0 connectivity, USB sound card mode, an AUX input, and dual charging ports (USB-A and USB-C) that push up to 35W fast-charging for external devices. However, downsides include its initial restriction as a China-only release with limited global availability, a soundstage that casual gamers and movie watchers may find narrow, and localized app limitations that restrict full mobile software customization outside of its domestic region.
