I wanted to buy a bluetooth speaker for my smartphone and tablet PC, but I had certain ideas. I did not want a single device (with 1 Speaker), a long battery life, a decent sound, you should not hear a rattle at full volume The construction was not a criterion for the possible purchase. (Why should I buy a futuristic speaker, which is great for the eyes, but for hearing unreasonable). And - all I wanted for little money.
I compared several speakers and was not necessarily satisfied with what I had tried or read.
The following Bluetooth speaker I had tried.
- Rokono (B10) BASS + Mini Bluetooth Speaker (25)
- AmazonBasics Portable Bluetooth Speaker (about 42)
- Raikko POCKET Beat 2.0 Bluetooth stereo mobile mini active speakers (about 25) and the
- August SE30 - Portable Bluetooth Speaker (about 25)
The Ronko has only one speaker is directed upwards (towards the ceiling) and the support with Bass. The sound was ok, but I prefer a speaker of the forward (radiates).
The Basic Amazon could be visually pleasing, but had problems with the sound. The speakers sounded tinny and at higher volume tends to the Amazon Basic to boom.
The Raikko could not convince me. The Raikko has 4 buttons at the top, which are doubly occupied and function poorly. Also, the USB connector is slightly "fitted".
With August SE30 I was very pleased. He cut me out of all the Best. With its 2 speakers each 3W, he has an unusually good sound. (In this price range based). The volume ranged from completely and the distortion did not matter.
What I should mention is that there are the speakers in different colors. I took him in white (front. U. Back) and black (side panels). The "Black" is not a color, as one might think; but a kind of foam rubber. This prevents the speaker begins to wander, especially at higher volume levels.
One can also buy a rubber case separately of that speaker. Whether you "need", everyone must decide for themselves.
