Boat Rugged Bluetooth Speaker

After the successful launch of Boat Pint and Pitcher portable speaker, Boat is back with new RUGGED bluetooth speaker. As the name suggests, RUGGED is a fashionable, stylish and trend setting portable Bluetooth speaker which is splash proof, has silicon casing all around for accidental drop protection and also packs an in-built powerbank to juice up your devices.

Rather than being funky or having a unique design, the speaker comes in simple rectangular shape.

The buttons for Bluetooth, volume and track change are at the top.

On the back are the charging port, the aux-out, on/off toggle and a USB port.

Performance

To review the Boat Rugged we fed the speaker with various genres of music. The speaker is equipped with twin drivers to and from a sound standpoint, the speaker plays pretty loud and sounds pretty decent for its size. You can also pair upto 2 devices together to stream music using same speaker turn by turn.

On tracks with bass content it does not sounded too thin and delivered decent amount of bass, although you'll want to stick to more moderate volumes to prevent distortion (mostly all small Bluetooth speakers distort to some degree).

The in-built microphone lets you to use the speaker for hands free calling. The speaker has playback time of upto 12 hours and with 1800mAH battery can charge up your mobiles in a dead zone.

The speaker is available exclusively on Amazon.com in 6 colors to choose from.
