The build quality I would call good. The case is up to the front area (metal mesh) fully equipped with a rubber coating. Therefore I can not give information on the material used there.
At the top of the status LEDs, pressure switch for volume +/-, track up / down, and play / pause and microphone on / off are housed. The range for the support of NFC is viewed from the front on the right.
Rear mounted eg an MP3 player as Zuspeisungsvariante and the on / off switch ports for charging (Micro USB) and wired connection (AUX, 3.5 mm jack). The ON / OFF switch also serves to put the speakers in the connection status of Bluetooth (support up to version 3.0).
Start and Operation
is simple. Only load the battery included. Speaker switch. The Bluetooth connection LED starts flashing and an activation tone can be heard. The Bluetooth output device (eg smartphone) Activating and setting a connection via the existing output device in the connection option. In the case of Sony Xperia Tablet S and HTC One of my Mini 2 (androids), Nokia Lumie 630 (Windows Phone 8.1) was that even without a password by simply tapping the option. Both recognized the speaker and the microphone immediately.
Basically unnecessary due to the simplicity that even a connection via NFC. But only works by tapping the other Bluetooth device on the right side of the speaker the course.
The speaker reported a successful or unsuccessful connection with an English acoustic output.
The function included for SIRI control of Apple devices Unfortunately I could not test for lack of compatible Apple systems.
The output quality
is just great (with a correspondingly high-quality source player). The highs are crystal clear, centers available and the bass really strong, although sometimes a little dull to some salient passages of music (drums, bass drum or bass drum). In principle, similar to the Bolse C5, only much better sound (not appearance). It's amazing how much sound from the 2 small 40 mm speakers comes out.
When using this speaker, I had not even fiddle with the equalizer settings of the source player. He has from the beginning a very good and powerful sound for the size.
A small downer: The speaker can be turned up brutally in the volume and a whole 30sqm room or the whole outdoor terrace consistently sound practically too loud. But on the top volume range it then but the buzz. But who needs to as a mini speakers such volume? Then you take more;))
