Don’t let its size fool you. This pint-sized fellow is packed with more technology than meets the eye. This true 360° speaker was engineered to spread deep, jaw-dropping sound in every direction. That means, when everyone stands around it, everyone gets the same experience. If you set it near a wall, the sound will radiate and reflect around the room, immersing you in that same feeling you felt watching a Dua Lipa concert.

The Revolve360Link offers you myriad ways to connect. You get the standard Bluetooth range of up to 10 meters but you also get a 3.5mm aux input. The units employ a short-range wireless technology called Near Field Communication (NFC) to allow buttonless pairing and unpairing of your playback device with the speaker. Just place your NFC-enabled device, such as a smartphone, near the speaker, and the NFC will pair the two without so much as the wave of a magic wand. You can also operate the speaker by inserting the TF (TransFlash) card also known as a Micro SD card and it will automatically play its audio contents. You can use the speaker to take calls by answering with a simple tap on the PLAY button on top. When a call comes in, playback will pause and you will hear the ringer through the speaker; simply press the PLAY button to answer and conduct your call as with any hands-free phone system. To end the call, just tap the PLAY button again. The Revolve360Link speakers support TWS device pairing technology so can use two units apart but are connected wirelessly.

It takes about 4 hours to fully charge it with a maximum of 5 hours of continuous playing time. It is powered by a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery 3.7V 2000mAh.
