    The LG XBoom can be put inside the trunk of a car and carried to a hill resort for a party but you would need a wall socket to power it. It is not a battery-powered speaker.
    GET IT FOR: Rs 12,990
    HIGHLIGHT: High on bass, karaoke mode, ample connectivity options
    The LG XBoom is a typical party speaker that delivers high audio levels with thumping bass. This speaker supports mics as well. You can connect external mics to sing your hearts out while the music is playing in the background. The LG XBoom offers an easy-to-use karaoke function that allows you to tune echo levels too.

    This speaker is an all-rounder for the price, which is well-suited in the Indian context. High volume levels, great bass along with in-built karaoke function makes it ideal for house and dorm-room parties. You can connect any device via Bluetooth or can even plug your phone or iPod via the AUX cable. LG is also offering the option to plug USB drives for music playback and there¡¦s a DVD drive as well. It also comes with its own FM radio, making it an all-in-one sound system.

    You can pair up to three Bluetooth devices and also connect it to the TV. As far as the mic functionality is concerned, you can connect two mics together. The speaker comes with its own remote controller.

    Talking about the audio quality, this speaker doesn¡¦t cater to the needs of audiophiles. So, do not expect much of acoustics or music quality if you are listening to classics. But if you are someone who just cares about the base boom and high volume for party songs then you will start loving this speaker, thanks to the large woofer. It is tuned for electronic and Bollywood music and has everything most buyers in India want.

    The LG XBoom can be put inside the trunk of a car and carried to a hill resort for a party but you would need a wall socket to power it. It is not a battery-powered speaker.

    The built quality is sturdy and it can be placed onto any surface.

    The LG XBoom is not a typical Bluetooth speaker and it is not advisable to use it as a replacement for a soundbar for your TV. This speaker is meant for people who just care about the bass as long as their favourite song is playing. Also, if you ever want to host a karaoke night at your place, this is the ultimate pocket-friendly option you can go for, provided you already own the mics.ƒÞ
