Bluetooth speakers are one of those things that pretty much everyone should own at least one of at this point. Some times and places call for music and its absence can completely change the mood. I had gone to a friend’s apartment this weekend for a pre-game before heading out to a Halloween party a local bar had been putting on. She had drinks, she had snacks, but no music. And friends, let me tell you. Standing around drinking in costume doesn’t hit the same in silence. Luckily, someone who came had integrated a Bluetooth speaker into their costume and saved the vibe. Point is, always have a Bluetooth speaker available in case you need it and be the one in your friend group prepared with one when its needed most.
If you’re looking for what to choose as Bluetooth speakers are one of the most crowded markets in consumer tech, consider this one. The CMF by Nothing Speaker S. I appreciate when a portable speaker has its own unique look and style too it. This one looks like a milk carton to me but I mean that as a compliment. It’s also on sale at the moment for 17% off. The Speaker S typically sells for $59, but the Amazon deal ends up taking it down by $10. You’ll be able to get it now for just $49 for a limited time.
Little Body, Big Sound
The CMF by Nothing Speaker S portable Bluetooth speaker is able to produce a punchy bass with a lot of depth. It’s equipped with a 45mm full-range driver as well as two passive radiators with up to 10W RMS output. Settings can be adjusted to customize the sound with Ultra Bass for that extra low-end punch or Wide Sound stage that expands the listening experience across a wider area whether you are inside or outside.
The speaker is made for portability. It has an integrated attachment point that easily have a strap, rope or carabiner attached to it for easy carrying. And you can truly take it anywhere as it has an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance. It can handle sand at the beach, water at the pool—even getting rained on or splashed up against. Heck, it can even be submerged fully into water as deep as 1.5 meters for up to a half hour.
Battery life is reliable. You can expect this speaker to keep at it for as long as 18 hours so long as the volume is kept at around or under 50%. Bring it out for picnics, hikes, beach days, or camping trips. If you find the battery is running low, a quick charge of just 10 minutes can provide it with up to one extra hour of playback time.
