#2 Best Sound Quality: XBOOM Mini Bluetooth Speaker

The XBOOM Mini is an exceptional mini bluetooth speaker and one of our personal favorites. The speaker has virtually all the functions you need in a quality speaker of this size – it has enhanced bass and expansion system to enable full-bodied, 360 degree sound with a 40mm driver 3-Watt output. It has an ultra-portable compact size with long-lasting embedded battery which provides a whopping 12 hours of continuous battery life from a single charge. It features a modular “buddy-plug” design, with an integrated stowaway 3.5mm stereo jack and socket for you to connect multiple capsule speakers together for maximum sound.

At the time of writing, this sweet mini bluetooth speaker is now selling at a very good price and is definitely worth checking out.

Our overall impression is that the XBOOM is a great speaker for mobile phones, PCs, laptops, tablets and video players. You can quality sound out of this speaker, and the ability to connect a few at the same time really adds to the punch. The speaker uses a bass expansion system with a sound resonator that enhanced the quality of the sound and bass response, although the bass output correlates with the size and drivers of the speaker and you should adjust your expectations accordingly.

After listening for an extended period of time playing everything from rock to jazz to classical and audiophile recordings, we felt that this speaker actually performs above its price tag. The volume you can achieve is significant though not earth shaking, but the quality of the audio is just about the best we have heard from any speaker in this price range and category of mini bluetooth speakers.

A key feature of the XBOOM is that it closes for portability and locks into a small package. You can open up the resonance chamber when you want to play music and get better bass response. The speaker is very lightweight at 2 7/8 ounces and is very portable. You can take it virtually anywhere that you need to listen to music, audiobooks, movies or podcasts. When opened, the upward firing speaker reproduces audio without muffling the sound quality.

The unit features a very good lithium battery that is rechargeable and takes only 2 hours to charge, while producing 12 hours of playback time on a single charge. On the bottom of the speaker you will find a 3.5mm audio plug cable that you can link speakers together or plug the speaker into your audio source.

The charging cable is 8 ½ inches long and the audio cable is 26 ½ inches long. When the speaker is charging the LED on the bottom is red and turns blue when fully charged.

The Verdict? It’s quite rare to get as much value with the XBOOM Mini Bluetooth Speaker. It produces outstanding audio with its small but powerful 40mm, 3 Watt driver and expandable chamber to produce better bass resonance like a mini subwoofer. With a frequency response of 280Hz to 16 Khz it would be unreasonable to expect much lower end bass from this speaker – however you get some very decent audio production at pretty loud volumes. We really liked the fact that you can link up multiple XBOOM Minis together and the small audio cable is nested neatly at the bottom of the speaker for storage. Overall, the XBOOM is a really good mini Bluetooth speaker that delivers great sound performance and we highly recommend them.

#3 Best Design: Sony SRSX11 Mini Bluetooth Speaker

We really liked the design of the Sony SRSX11. This speaker is exactly the right size – small and compact – the whole speaker itself is covered in soft quality rubber. All three speaker grills are metal; the speaker looks like it can take a tonne of abuse and looks super nice on the outside. You can tell that Sony spent some time thinking about the acoustic design and not just the packaging. There are two passive bass radiators on two sides. The speaker is a closed design and has very little air inside. It will fit easily into your briefcase or pocket.

The sound quality is pretty good for a mini bluetooth speaker. The midrange and highs are really clear and easy to listen to without distortion at high volumes. We would describe the sound as loud, crisp and clean. We liked the ability to split the speakers for spatial separation – you can link a second unit to take advantage of the stereo linking to produce much fuller sound. The bass feels a little closed up in part due to its design, but limited bass reproduction is to be expected from mini bluetooth speakers. In sum, this little Sony speaker has much bigger sound in the same size package with an enhanced battery life.

The bluetooth connection is clean and simple. All we needed to do was turn the power on, go to your device and pair with the speaker. The speaker has volume control and there is a phone button to answer calls and the power button.

The Anker Ultra also comes with a 2.3 ft Micro USB charging cable, 2.3ft AUX to Micro USB audio cable, and an 18 month warranty.

The speaker produces very good sounds and good volume for its size. It utilizes a 3 watt audio speaker that performs above par. The sound is the reason this little speaker excels so much – it can get incredibly loud for its tiny size and we never heard any distortion or bad sound.

Pairing the speaker is fast and easy and quick. That said, the speaker does not include a microphone so you have to make your phone calls using your phone. Based on the sound performance alone, we would say that this is a powerful mini bluetooth speaker with lots of guts.

The Anker itself is really lightweight – it even has a bit of rubber on the bottom surface so it does not slide around easily with the minor thumping from the bass. When you do need to charge this speaker, you can use the included Micro-USB cable and nearly any USB wall charger, since it only requires a 0.5 input in order to charge. One nice added features is the auto-off, which occurs a few minutes after the speaker being on but not connected to any device.

The Verdict? It’s ridiculous how the manufactures can fit a driver this good with a battery that lasts so long in such a tiny package. The Anker Ultra truly impressed in almost every aspect; the only aspect which we found lacking was that it does not have a microphone so you cannot use this to make calls. This is no biggie to us though, considering how good the sound performance and bluetooth connectivity was. Considering that this speaker is a really good mini speaker you can find on a budget, we would highly recommend the Anker Ultra.

The sound is simply outstanding – we were quite surprised you can get so much sound from such a small and compact mini bluetooth speaker. The speaker does get very loud and produces crystal clear music even at near maximum volumes without distortion. We could not find any faults with the music performance; we would describe it as outstanding in every way. With a dedicated 5W driver, the manufacturers really managed to create such a good sound speaker from such a small package. We also found that the lows, mids and highs were not bad and it also has some bass to it as well. This is taking into consideration that it is pretty sealed up for water resistance and still produces crystal clear sound.

The speaker itself is well thought out – it comes with a micro USB charging cable and user manual. It also includes a carbine for the loop up top, which is very convenient to attach to your backpack or bicycle while on the go.

It even comes with a suction cup which is great for windows and car windows. In short, this is probably among the most heavy duty and portable mini bluetooth speakers you can get.

Apart from being water resistant, dust and shock proof, the speaker itself is designed to be extremely sturdy and portable and is easy to carry around. The rubbery exterior and high quality materials make this speaker feel high quality – you can feel how sturdy it is simply by holding it in your hand. We were also surprised that the audio performance could be this good even though the speaker itself is thoroughly sealed and compact. At the time of writing, the VicTsing is selling at a very good price and is undoubtedly one of the best mini bluetooth speakers on this list.
