Verdict

The Huawei AI Cube is a 2-in-1 cylindrical smart speaker and stationary 4G LTE router that measures 218mm by 116mm, weighs 900g, and requires continuous mains power rather than operating on a portable battery. Its audio performance is anchored by a 15W mono driver, a 400ml sound cavity, an aluminum diaphragm, and passive radiators powered by proprietary Histen sound-tuning technology. The device's primary pros include dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi capable of supporting up to 64 connected devices, a built-in Cat. 6 LTE modem providing cellular download speeds up to 300Mbps, four far-field microphones for seamless Amazon Alexa integration, and a dedicated physical mic-mute button. However, its core cons include its dependency on an electrical outlet which prevents true mobile portability, subpar sound quality when compared to premium dedicated speakers, a single Ethernet port, and a complete lack of external antenna ports or standard 3.5mm AUX inputs.

What customers like about Huawei AI Cube?

  • Unique hybrid design combining a 4G LTE router and a smart speaker into one device
  • Very straightforward and fast setup process by simply inserting a SIM card
  • Decent maximum volume capacity capable of filling small to medium rooms
  • Provides an excellent alternative internet solution for rural or cable-free locations
  • Integrated Amazon Alexa works reliably for voice commands and smart home control
  • Dual-band Wi-Fi provides good coverage and supports connecting multiple devices simultaneously

What customers dislike about Huawei AI Cube?

  • Requires constant mains power and lacks a built-in rechargeable battery for true portability
  • Sound quality lacks depth, punchy bass, and dynamic range compared to dedicated premium speakers
  • Limited hardware connectivity with only a single Ethernet port and no external antenna ports
  • Finding an optimal placement can be difficult since router signal needs clash with central speaker placement
  • Relatively high price point considering its average audio performance
  • Some smart home automation features are restricted compared to a standard Amazon Echo device
