A splash and dust-resistant speaker designed for maximum portability that provides a solid physical platform for a sound performance that goes well beyond its size.

The jury says
The tech industry believes in sound, whether it is about podcasts or voice control, and the time has long passed when portable speakers were the reserve of skater boys. The light 600-gram Bluetooth speaker makes it easier than ever to share good music, whether while cooking, during playtime in the garden or on the road. An aesthetic experience with an impressive sound quality that exemplifies functional design at its best.
