Yango unveils a pair of AI assistant-powered smart speakers
Bilingual human-like Yasmina is all-knowing
Yango Group, a prominent tech innovator known for integrating global technologies into local services, has launched its latest cutting-edge devices: the Yasmina Midi and Yasmina Mini smart speakers, now available online and in retail stores across the UAE.
The Yasmina smart speakers are distinguished by their unique integration of Yasmina, an advanced AI assistant explicitly designed for the Middle Eastern market.
Yasmina is a bilingual AI capable of conversing fluently in Khaleeji Arabic and English. It provides users with an experience that mimics engaging, human-like interactions. This innovation marks a significant leap in making technology feel more personable and culturally attuned.
Advanced features
The Yasmina Midi and Yasmina Mini smart speakers are engineered with advanced features that cater to various user needs.
Yasmina can recognise up to four family members by voice, personalise music recommendations, and adjust content based on individual preferences.

The assistant also provides age-appropriate interactions for children and can display essential information such as the time, weather, and Hijri calendar dates on its LED screen.
Additionally, Yasmina offers dynamic lighting to complement the mood of the music or conversations and can recite surahs from the Holy Quran, play adhans, and provide prayer times globally.
Yasmina Midi
The Yasmina Midi model is designed for larger spaces. It features a subwoofer and two tweeters to deliver robust sound quality suitable for areas up to 300 square feet. The Yasmina Midi is priced at AED449.
Yasmina Mini
The Yasmina Mini, a more compact version, is perfect for smaller environments of up to 200 square feet while still providing clear and balanced audio. It is available for AED279.
Both smart speakers have a mute button for enhanced privacy, ensuring users can disconnect the microphones when needed. Yasmina Midi comes with Zigbee and Wi-Fi capabilities, making it an effective smart home hub, while Yasmina Mini supports smart home integration via Wi-Fi.
Both smart speakers are available through home electronics retailers across the UAE, including Virgin Megastore, Jumbo Electronics, Sharaf DG, and online at noon.com.
