The boAt Stone 620 is a portable wireless speaker delivering 12W RMS stereo sound through dual 52mm dynamic drivers and passive bass radiators, featuring a frequency response of 120Hz-20KHz. Its ergonomic cylindrical design offers 360-degree audio impact, while its IPX4-rated splash and water resistance ensures durability during travel.
