Just as viewed from the outside, the rectangular speaker of FrieQ can not win a design award. It is completely made of black plastic and its corners and edges are rounded. Real keys with perceptible pressure points, he did not. At its top are lit during operation, touch-sensitive points for each function. At a size of approximately 18 x 8 x 5.5 cm and weighs 424 grams and is also responsible for the way no load. Under the floor there are 4 round rubber tiles as non-slip feet for smooth surfaces.
Although his entire body around has the perforated speaker grills, the sound comes out just ahead. On the flip side, the on-off switch, the sockets for charging the battery of the 3.5 mm jack connector and the Buddy connection. Through this buddy connection, any number of speakers unite to this jack with 3.5mm jack cable, or a headset can be connected.
The delivery includes a black velvet pouch, the speaker, a jack cable and a micro-USB charging cable. The manual is very extensively and in addition to many other languages also available in German. Anyone slightly familiar with Bluetooth connections, although not required. It explains everything by itself.
Now for the sound and is quite ok for this small, lightweight plastic bomber. What I miss is a bass. Even with bass-heavy music device to favor the highs and mids in the background. However, what is emphasized is a technical equipment. There is nothing that this little guy has not. Especially pleasant I find its NFC feature, unless you have an NFC-enabled player, that's the most comfortable connection over Bluetooth. Once you turn on him, he is looking for a connection. It is enough a brief contact with the smartphone at the point marked with an 'N' place at the top and have the device connect. The sound is loud enough for this small part! However, it overrides at full volume to smartphone and speakers and the sound is very tinny.
The built-on top buttons (accept on / off, volume up / down, forward / backward, key lock / unlock, call / hang up) must be only lightly touched, is sensitive enough to the box. The telephone function through the speaker I have ever tried and it works well, you can hear the other party and also listen to a via the built microphones without discomfort. There is also the function: reject call and redial the last number dialed. However, I usually use the speaker not to make phone calls.
The Bluetooth connection is within a room via 5 meter still smoothly, once a wall is, however, it starts to stutter and then it's over.
The battery is permanently installed and can not be exchanged. Burdened he plays good 6-hour lying beside him mobile. If the battery is weak, he begins to stutter and has dropouts, provided with charging cable, but he plays straight on again.
Positive + Small and lightweight design + NFC + Battery-saving Bluetooth 4.0 + Keylock + Buddy Jack socket for additional speakers or boxes + Jack + Lit touch field
Neutral +/- Entirely of plastic
Negative -klarer sound, but with little bass -übersteuert at full volume from player and speakers and sounds tinny
Conclusion: Small, technically very well equipped speakers for indoors and outdoors. The processing is robust, only his tone I would have liked more saturated.
