If you love music on the go then the new Mini Boombox from Logitech is bound to hit a homerun in your books. Small, portable and loud, no music junkie could ask for more really.
The Mini Boombox took its inspiration from the original boombox which was essentially a portable cassette or CD player also known as a ghetto blaster, jambox or radio-cassette. It is a device capable of receiving radio stations and playing recorded music at a relatively high volume. The boombox was very popular among African American and Hispanic youth back in early 80s who would carry them on top of their shoulders while walking down the street, playing their music loud for everyone to hear.
30 years later and we have evolved version of the Boombox, downsized yet big on performance. The Logitech Mini Boombox is a compact sound system for music, movies, games and calls that pairs easily with your smartphones, tablets and other Bluetooth enabled devices.
According to Mr. Prasenjit Sarkar, Logitech Regional Director of South Asia, now that mobile devices also act as movie theaters, concert stages, game consoles and conference centers, people want sound quality to match and the Logitech Mini Boombox delivers.

OUR THOUGHTS
Indeed, the Logitech Mini Boombox is a nifty little device, the size of our palm so it will definitely fit into most handbags. It’s easy to use and takes a mere two minutes or less to pair up your phone to the Mini Boombox. It’s great if you want to share your audio to a crowd of up to 5 people in a standard sized room but definitely not at a loud party. We foresee this being very handy at places where you’re trying to watch a video clip on YouTube at a cafe or trying to pick up a call while driving. Did we mention that it’s also very affordable?
The Logitech Mini Boombox retails in Malaysia for RM299. For more details, please log on to www.logitech.com.my or www.facebook.com/LogitechMalaysia.
