Divoom Voombox Outdoor

If you're familiar with the Braven brand, there's a good chance Divoom's Voombox ($100) will look like something you've seen before. Although it's not a ...

Portable Bluetooth speakers have really taken off in the past few years. They make playing and sharing your music with friends extremely easy. They are small enough to throw in a backpack or laptop bag and can be used with any device that has Bluetooth support. It seems more and more Bluetooth speakers are being taken with us, on camping trips, to the beach, etc. With that a more rugged Bluetooth speaker is needed. Divoom thinks they have that Bluetooth Speaker in their Voombox Outdoor. It is a portable Bluetooth speaker with a more rugged design and a water-resistant case that protects its components from splashing water and dust. Read on as we see what this Bluetooth speaker is all about...

We are going to take a look at the new Divoom Voombox-Outdoor Water-Resistant wireless speaker. Can it compete with other rugged wireless speakers?

We've got another Divoom Bluetooth speaker for you to check out here, this time a little bigger and more powerful. The Voombox-Outdoor Bluetooth speaker brings the quality sound and volume you'd expect from other Divoom speakers, but even better as this is their best available Bluetooth speaker.BUILDBuilt with a rubber and plastic exterior as well as metal speaker grills, the Voombox-Outdoor is weather resistant and can withstand rain, mud and whatever else you throw at it. I gave this speaker the same treatment as its little brother, Voombox-Ongo, with pouring a pitcher of water on it while playing music. With no surprise, this speaker completely ignored the shower it was given. As well as being sturdy and strong, the Outdoor speaker is simple and easy to use, with only four buttons on top (power, pause/play, volume-down/previous, volume-up/next). Simply turn on the speaker with the press of a button, and if your smartphone has Bluetooth on, it will automatically detect the speaker and connect. You also have four options of colors: Smart Black, Indigo Blue, Vermillion Red, and Army Green.SOUNDI was impressed with the sound on the smaller Voombox-Ongo as it delivered quality sound and vocals with a relatively high volume for the size. I'm even more impressed with the boosted quality of the Voombox-Outdoor, as bass is even deeper, and mids sound incredible. The speaker delivers 15W of sound, and has 5 sound drivers built into it for clean highs, a good midranged punch and deep bass. The only notable flaw when playing music on highest volume was the suffering of the highs, as they were dialed down a little bit when there was bass. But this is to be expected with any Bluetooth speaker of this size.BATTERYDivoom claims the battery on the Voombox-Outdoor lasts around 12 hours on a charge. I'm happy to report that I literally has this speaker playing music all day long from 10:30 a.m. till 10 p.m. with a mixture of Kid Cudi Pandora radio and my Awolnation radio. I was very impressed with the 11 1/2 hours of playback.CONCLUSIONThe Voombox-Outdoor places itself in the high-quality range of Bluetooth speakers. With the combination of a weather resistant build, high quality audio and a punchy bass, Divoom is a serious contender for your business. I like a Bluetooth speaker that's easy to use and connect with anything, and found no confusion using the Voombox speakers. The Outdoor speaker typically retails on Amazon for $99.99 on Amazon, but you can grab one for $79.99 before January 5th here.

While it falls short of greatness, the sub-$100 Voombox Outdoor is water-resistant and puts out a lot of sound for its small size.

Sound (music in particular) is part and parcel of our lives. We feel its effects everywhere around us, it calms us down, inspires us and sometimes, even causes us discomfort. The matter of effectiv…

Divoom's Voombox-Outdoor rugged Bluetooth speaker is one of many of these types of speakers on the market right now. What sets it apart from the rest of the pack, however, is its great build quality and Blueooth 4.0 connectivity for increased battery life. Going into the speaker design itself, the V

The Divoom Voombox Outdoor delivers solid audio at moderate volume levels and can also get quite loud for its size, but the power can bring distortion.

Not the best sounding Bluetooth speaker we’ve tested, but it's loud and rugged

Smartphone speakers are rubbish when it comes to playing music. There are some exceptions, like HTC's One M flagships, but, generally speaking, the sound quality just isn't there. There is only so much you can ask for from a tiny little speaker, trapped inside a small shell. So, if you want more oomph, you will have to hook up your smartphone to an external speaker.
