Provides a realistic conversational experience through the exclusive service 'Talk to Minions'
Includes Minions eye/mouth shaped stickers to customize the speaker's exterior design.
LG Uplus is launching 'Friends Plus Minions' as a new speaker model in collaboration with Naver to support the AI smart home service 'U+ Our Home AI'.
This is a model of the 'Friends Plus' speaker, equipped with Naver's AI platform 'Clova,' featuring a new design of the popular 'Minions' characters.
The feature of Friends Plus Minions is the 'Talk to Minions' function. This service is a new feature provided by the Naver Clova platform. By saying “Clova, call Minion,” users can continue a continuous conversation with the speaker without a separate wake word, asking questions such as “What is your name?” or “Do you like bananas?”, giving customers the feeling of having a real conversation with the Minions characters.

In addition, Friends Plus Minions includes 9 types of Minions character eye/mouth stickers, allowing customers to customize the speaker's appearance according to their preferences.
In addition, it is worth noting that alarm sounds for power on/off, WiFi network settings, and errors are recorded in the voice of the Minions character 'Kevin,' highlighting the unique character of the Minions.
Along with these differentiated features, users can access core U+ Home AI services, such as U+tv VOD keyword search and voice-controlled Home IoT, just like with previously released Friends Plus speakers. Recently, 'YBM English Fairy Tales,' an English education service for children, and 'Bugs Music,' a music service, have also become available.
Meanwhile, customers who wish to purchase Friends Plus Minions can receive it for free at no extra cost through the Customer Appreciation Grand Festival, which offers a U+ Our Home AI Speaker.
Lee Hae-seong, Head of AI Services at LG Uplus, said, “Through our collaboration with Naver, we are introducing a speaker featuring the Minions design and characters, which are popular with people of all ages, following Line Friends,” adding, “We will continue to strive to provide attractive devices to our customers.”
