Buying Guide for Bluetooth Speakers
-
Battery Life: This indicates how long your speaker can go after just a single charge. Higher battery life is an important criterion, especially for frequent travellers.
-
Bluetooth Version: Make sure you catch hold of the speaker with the latest Bluetooth connectivity version. Higher the connectivity, the higher the range of working.
-
Portability: While all the wireless speakers are fairly portable, some come fitted with carabiners, handles, and hangers for added convenience.
-
Water Resistance: This is indicated by the ingress protection (IPX) rating. While a standard IPX rating of 4 and above protects against just a few splashes, IPX ratings of 7 and above will save your speaker from accidental submersions too.
-
Drivers: Most Bluetooth speakers typically have a 35mm or 40mm driver.
-
Call Support: Many advanced speakers also allow taking up calls, naturally notching up the price.
