5W Immersive Boat Sound Experience: Stone 180 Review

The 5W Immersive sound gives good amplification but has been reviewed by many users as “not a very loud speaker” and is considered okay for a small room. The sound of the speaker is well and good when it is set at 70% to 80% of its volume level but the clarity simply fails to be good enough when the volume is set to a hundred and listeners can hear the distortion in the sound from the speaker. Also, the bass is not good enough.

Battery Capacity of 800mAh:

The company declares that the speaker has a battery capacity of 800 mAh which runs up to 10 hours but when used in real, it showed a battery backup of only up to 6 to 7 hours when the speaker is played on 80 % of its volume capacity. However, the battery backup strength significantly further deteriorates when played at the full volume capacity. It takes not less than up to 1.5 to 2 hours to charge up to full battery capacity with a 5 W charger only. The 5 W chargers are strictly recommended as any higher watt of the charger can affect the speaker’s durability and users cannot claim the warranty on this ground later.

The IPX7 rating:

The IPX7 rating gives this speaker an edge as it’s dust, water, and splash resistant as users can easily carry the speaker in rain and shower. But, listeners can easily differentiate in the sound quality when the speaker is covered with a layer of water; the sound is not similar enough.

The inbuilt mic is another added feature in this speaker which makes it easy for calling services and is quite clear enough. Therefore, you need not panic while you receive a call on your mobile phone and simultaneously talk through the mic of the speaker.

Button control:

The speaker has four buttons in total which are volume up button, volume low button, power button and a multipurpose button which is used to recieve and reject calls. . It has quite good built quality with an exterior body which is stylish and the buttons and LED light are towards one side which cannot be felt enough as they are completely embedded to the surface and are not rose.
