i-box Twist Bluetooth Speaker | £69.90 | www.iboxstyle.com
with so many Bluetooth speakers in the market (and more being announced every other day), it has triggered a ‘numbing’ effect to consumers and needless to say, that’s a bad news for makers cos’ any thing that has less than impressive specs or aesthetic will more likely to drown in that Bluetooth tidal wave. to that note, we think newcomer i-box Twist might just be spared from that fate, thanks to an attention-grabbing twist – literally. sporting an unconventional twisted form and a sleek, tactile mat black finish, it offers Bluetooth connectivity for wireless audio streaming from your Bluetooth-enabled smartphone, tablet or any other BT-equipped devices and pumps them out through its dual 38mm (1.5-inch) full-range drivers and a passive bass radiator. like any dutiful Bluetooth speakers today, a built-in noise-canceling microphone allows the Twist to doubles as a handsfree speakerphone while a 3.5mm audio let you hook this baby up to other non-BT sources. wrapping up the package is a rechargeable battery that gives you up to five hours of usage in between charges. the i-box Twist Bluetooth Speaker is slated to be available on the December 12, 2012, coinciding with the Brit firm’s official website launch on the same day and carries an affordable price tag of £69.90 (about US$110) each.
