What customers like about Hama Powerbrick 2 0

  • Lightweight and highly portable design at 330 grams
  • Solid 10 to 12 hours of battery life on a single charge
  • IPX4 splash protection makes it safe against sudden rain or poolside splashes
  • Modern USB-C charging interface allows for a quick 3-hour charge time
  • True Wireless Stereo functionality lets users pair two units for stereo sound
  • Simple, intuitive top control panel with clear pictograms
  • Includes a handy removable carabiner/snap hook for easy backpack attachment
  • Maintains a stable, delay-free wireless connection using Bluetooth 5.0

What customers don't like about Hama Powerbrick 2 0

  • Lacks deep bass performance due to the absence of a dedicated subwoofer or passive radiator
  • Relatively low maximum audio output power at only 8 Watts (2 x 4W)
  • Limited water resistance rating (IPX4), meaning it cannot be fully submerged compared to IPX7 competitors
  • Bluetooth wireless connectivity range is restricted to standard 10 metres
  • Lacks advanced smartphone remote app control or a touch screen interface
  • No integrated power bank feature to charge external mobile devices

Verdict

The Hama PowerBrick 2.0 is a rectangular, portable stereo Bluetooth 5.1 speaker delivering 8W RMS rated power and weighing 330 grams. It is equipped with a 2500mAh lithium-ion battery providing up to 10 hours of playback time on a 3-hour USB-C charge, alongside a 10-meter wireless range and an integrated hands-free microphone. Key advantages include True Wireless Stereo pairing to link two units, a physical 3.5mm AUX input for wired audio connections, an included snap hook for travel, and an IPX4 splash-proof rating that protects against sudden light drizzle. However, it lacks a built-in FM radio, is limited only to splash-proof protection rather than full submersion, and takes a relatively long 3 hours to reach full charge relative to its total battery life.
