Adding to its range of wireless speakers, Braven has developed its 805 model. As is becoming increasingly popular with such devices, the Braven 805 can act as a Bluetooth speaker, speakerphone and a power bank for changing a variety of mobile devices...

Strong audio performance with crisp highs and rich lows. Gets quite loud for a speaker in this price range. Colorful design with built-in speakerphone functionality.

Bulky for a portable speaker. Bass can be deeper.

In the sub-$200 realm, few portable Bluetooth speakers get quite as loud as the 805 does. If you're after more bass response in the deep lows, you'll need to spend more money—the Jabra Solemate Max and the Soundcast Melody are solid wireless options....

Fat but balanced sound, some extra low end but not overpowering. Balanced mids and highs. Music is a joy to listen to and the speaker works great for a living room or kitchen. Pair two together and you get phenomenal sound to fill a very large room.

The only con here is the price point may not be to everyone's liking. But you get what you pay for sometimes and Braven does sound really good.

High price but really worth it as this speaker should be around your house for many years.
