Sound Quality Performance: Boat Stone 170 Portable Bluetooth Speaker Review

Vocals are good for watching a movie on mobile or laptop, but there is some distortion when the volume is raised above eighty percent. It is better if the volume is maintained below eighty. But while playing the music, it performs well even with a high volume.

Voice is clear without the noise muffled or too strained. So, it is painless to hear the words accurately. It is loud for a small and normal-sized room. But you will need another speaker for a bigger hall.

Bass is average. There is no vibration on the surface when the sound is on. So, the music is only heard, not felt. This may not be for people who have hearing loss if they want to feel the vibration.

Phone Calls can be answered even when it is plugged into the speaker. Since it has a microphone, it is easy to attend calls while it is connected.

Connectivity in boAt 170 Bluetooth Speaker:

• It comes with a 4.2 Bluetooth version with a connectivity range of up to 15 meters which is average and practical for normal use.
• It supports a micro-SD card and 3.5mm jack Aux cable which is convenient if you don’t want to go wireless sometimes.
