Techie Boom Bluetooth Speaker

Product Information

In spite of its focus on portability, the Roam is very much part of the Sonos ecosystem, which means you can use it as part of a wider multi-room audio setup, or pair two speakers for stereo sound. Pairing the Sonos Roam with other Sonos speakers can be done by simply holding down the play/pause button.

All you need to do is hold down the play/pause button until you hear the third tone (one more than if you were pairing two speakers), while holding the Sonos Roam close to the other speaker. Your music should then begin playing from the second speaker – or if you’re casting to a Sonos system, the full speaker setup. At full charge, Techie Boom will play at full volume for around 8-10 hours. We recommend that to get the best product longevity you should charge your speaker moderately frequently, rather than letting the battery die with every use. The Roam works with both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5, so you can use it in the home or on the move, and the new Automatic Switching feature makes this transition more seamless than ever, with the speaker automatically connecting to your Wi-Fi network when in range, and re-pairing with your phone when you’re out and about. You can only use the Sonos Roam's voice assistant while connected to a Wi-Fi network. (Image credit: TechRadar) Sonos Roam: battery life For a speaker to get loud in a wide open space with the sound of the ocean beside it – it really needs to pull something special out of the bag, and that’s exactly what Premio Boom did. This could get a beach party popping off all by itself. We were able to hear the music over 100 meters away!When King Harald Bluetooth, son of Gorm The Old, died in the year 986 he almost certainly didn’t imagine that more than a thousand years later hundreds of millions of household devices would bear his name: Bluetooth is so called because it ‘unites’ gadgets in the same way Harald united Denmark. But Harald could hardly fail to be impressed by the variety and quality of the best Bluetooth speakers now on offer. When your phone transmits audio to a speaker, it does so using compression technologies called codecs - there are several Bluetooth codecs including Apple’s AAC, Sony’s obscure LDAC and Qualcomm’s Apt-X, which is only available on Android devices. One function worth your attention is the ability to create a stereo pair. ‘Here, you buy two speakers of the same model and wirelessly link them, creating a stereo effect,’ Powell says. ‘Not all Bluetooth speakers offer this feature, but it can be a great way of creating a more hi-fi-like’ sound.’ Specifications For water- and dust-proofing, I noted which devices were certified to standard IP67, which means that devices are completely dust-resistant and will withstand being immersed in water for 30 minutes. Built with premium hardened polymers with fantastic sealing and with decent cushioning for the internal components, Walla Sound held up well in all conditions we tested it in – making it a great addition to any trip regardless of how tough it gets. Here’s what we found..

Techie Boom ended up being leagues ahead of all the speakers we tried. It passed all our tests with flying colors, including the most important ones – delivering on all fronts with incredible sound, power and battery life. The claimed battery life of the Sonos Roam is 10 hours, though we found that this came in at around nine hours while playing at a medium volume, and the company says the speaker can last for up to 10 days in sleep mode – it’ll automatically go into sleep mode when you stop playing music. You might be familiar with the name Loewe, a distinguished German brand mainly associated with large and expensive Teutonic televisions: but these days, Loewe also turn their hands to Bluetooth speakers. The rugged Bluetooth speaker comes with a IP67 water-and-dust-resistance rating.

The new R2 Music System is a typically splendid offering, with a retro-yet-modern look which will fit into most homes and even smarten them up somewhat. The Roam is the cheapest Sonos speaker to date. (Image credit: TechRadar) Sonos Roam: price and availability The LG XBoom 360 is one of the more mature and understated designs we’ve seen for a party speaker. While many other companies are leaning into the PA-system and boom box aesthetic, it’s nice to see LG come out with a speaker that looks great in the home. Don't buy it if... This is EXACTLY what I needed. You have no idea how many portable speakers have let me down before, either with weak battery or weak power. This is neither – it goes LOUD and the battery lasts the whole day! Can’t ask for more.”
