You can connect a Bluetooth speaker simply to your phone, tablet, or even a TV without worrying about the hassles caused due to cables. These speakers offer a flexible and convenient way to relax and listen to music wherever you want to.

Bluetooth speakers are generally small and compact so that you can use it anywhere. Some speakers can even be used as a speakerphone.

You should check for the following factors before buying a Bluetooth speaker for your home.

Bluetooth Version:

Checking the Bluetooth version helps you in determining the quality of the audio transmission. It helps you figure out the distance that you can maintain between the phone and the speaker. Buying Bluetooth 4 or advanced versions is better. However, you can go with a minimum 2.1 version too.

Frequency Response:

The frequency response is generally described as a range between 50 Hz – 20,000 HZ. The wider the range is the better sound quality you will get.

Audio Output:

Check for a speaker with an output of around 10-20 watts so that you can get 80 dB sound levels. This volume is sufficient enough to be used outdoors too.

Battery Life:

It is an important factor too, especially if you like camping out in places where there is no electricity to charge the speaker.

Some models can run continuously for around 9-10 hours with a single charge. A minimum of 6 hours of playback is also good enough.
