Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Libratone Too

  • Sleek, minimalist Scandinavian design with eye-catching colour options
  • Compact and lightweight bottle-shaped chassis that easily fits into backpack pockets
  • Effective 360-degree 'FullRoom' audio projection for an immersive soundstage
  • Good high-frequency clarity and crisp vocals for its small footprint
  • IPX4 splash-resistant build makes it highly suitable for outdoor use and travel
  • Solid 12+ hour battery life on a single charge
  • User-friendly companion app featuring nine custom EQ presets and internet radio streaming

What customers don't like about Libratone Too

  • Lacks substantial sub-bass power and can sound thin on bass-heavy tracks
  • Digital Signal Processing (DSP) aggressively sculpts audio and dampens dynamics at maximum volumes
  • Touch control panel can be fiddly, overly sensitive, or prone to accidental activation
  • No track navigation (skip/previous song) controls directly on the speaker's interface
  • Light on accessories, as it does not include a carrying pouch or a 3.5mm auxiliary cable
  • Relatively expensive compared to rivals that offer better audio expansion and full waterproofing

Verdict

The Libratone Too is an ultra-portable, water-bottle-shaped Bluetooth 4.1 speaker weighing 580 grams and measuring 207 x 61.5 x 59 mm. It features a 30W maximum power output driven by two 1.5-inch full-range drivers, a 4-inch Neodymium woofer, a passive driver, and a 360-degree sound reflector. Main characteristics include an IPX4 splash-proof rating, up to 12 hours of battery life from a 2600 mAh battery, a touch-sensitive interface, speakerphone functionality, and a 3.5mm auxiliary input. Its primary pros are its impressive loudness for its size, crisp audio clarity with rich bass response, convenient carrying loop, and the ability to link two units via the companion app. However, its main cons include a lack of on-board track navigation controls, digital signal processing that limits dynamics at maximum volumes, a micro-USB charging port instead of USB-C, and a tendency to roll or deliver suboptimal bass due to physical positioning limitations.
