Imagine this scenario: you head out to a picnic or pool party with a Bluetooth speaker and also have a pair of TWS earbuds for your commute. This means you have quite a load to carry, in addition to your other EDC. But that won’t be the case if you have the REMAX RB-M17.
The world of “you didn’t expect that to be TWS earbuds’ charging case” has just welcomed a new unexpected use of a charging case and that’s a Bluetooth speaker. There have been TWS earbuds in a phone, TWS earbuds in a smartwatch, and now, believe it or not, there are now TWS earbuds in a speaker.
The REMAX RB-M17 Tuner Series Bluetooth Speaker is a 2-in-1 featuring a pair of TWS earbuds that has a charging case that doubles as a Bluetooth speaker.
As a portable Bluetooth speaker, it is super compact, measuring 115 by 48 x 88 mm (4.5 x 1.9 x 3.5 inches), and tips the scales at 350g (about 0.8 lbs or 12.3 oz). But as a pair of true wireless sound earbuds, it is possibly the biggest and heaviest charging case you will ever encounter.
The speaker is outfitted with a 52 mm driver, rated at 5 W, and has a wraparound speaker grille that promises to deliver powerful 360° audio.
And it has not one but two Bluetooth 5.3, one for each wireless audio device. Accordingly to the product page, the two Bluetooth connectivity will not interfere with each other and it further claims to offer CD-level sound quality and stable connection.
The REMAX RB-M17 is outfitted with a 1,200 mAh battery good for up to 4.5 hours of playback. In addition to Bluetooth connectivity, the speaker also supports playback from a flash drive, TF card, as well as auxiliary input through the 3.5 mm audio jack.
Finally, two RB-M17s can be connected to enable true wireless stereo.
