The good: The BluBridge mobile speaker offers a compact design, A2DP Bluetooth 2.0 audio streaming, battery-powered portability, aux input, AVRCP playback controls, and the capability to take calls from your mobile phone.
The bad: The sound quality of the BluBridge lacks any kind of low end and call quality was mediocre.
The bottom line: The BluBridge speaker design is easy on the eyes, but sound quality is lacking.
Editors' note: Due to a decrease in the suggested retail price of this product (now $99, down from $129), we have adjusted our rating to reflect the improved value.
A portable Bluetooth speaker can be a magical thing. These wireless, battery-powered boom boxes can stream music from your computer or mobile phone, and many of them will even act as speakerphones for taking calls. The BluBridge mobile speaker ($99) from Miccus can perform all of these feats of wireless audio magic (and more) in a space no larger than a paperback book.
Measuring 8 inches wide by 3.5 inches

A portable Bluetooth speaker can be a magical thing. These wireless, battery-powered boom boxes can stream music from your computer or mobile phone, and many of them will even act as speakerphones for taking calls. The BluBridge mobile speaker ($99) from Miccus can perform all of these feats of wireless audio magic (and more) in a space no larger than a paperback book.
Measuring 8 inches wide by 3.5 inches tall and a little over an inch thick, the BluBridge mobile speaker uses a blade-like, tapered design that is small enough to throw in a shoulder bag, but not so small to fit in your pocket. The front includes two 1.25-inch speakers covered with a durable metal grille, along with a useful arrangement of plastic controls for power, volume, mute, and song playback (play/pause, skip, reverse).
