BlueAnt M1 Portable Stereo Speakers

(2.5 out of 5)

MSRP: $199

We like the built-in subwoofer and long-lasting battery on these Bluetooth speakers, but audiophiles may want to pass.

BlueAnt’s M1 Bluetooth speakers boast up to 10 hours of listening time, 28 watts of power, and a bass-boosting feature. Add a sleek design, and suddenly everyone’s checking out your speakers. Unfortunately, the M1 doesn’t sound quite as good as it looks. Design Make no mistake, the 2.5-pound M1 is a looker. A black metal grille wraps around the front and top of the unit. A big brushed metal–looking volume knob sits off to the right, surrounded by playback control buttons encircled by a thin, brushed metal ring and blinking Bluetooth LED. It was tricky to hit the Play/Pause button at the 12 o’clock position on the playback controls without grazing the volume knob. The M1 comes with a neoprene carrying case with holes in the back for the subwoofer, line-in cord and power adapter. Unlike many other Bluetooth speakers, the M1 does not have speakerphone capabilities.
