  • Long-lasting battery backup offering up to 15 hours of playtime
  • Good, crisp sound clarity suitable for a compact speaker
  • Solid build quality and an attractive, portable mesh design

  • Overall maximum volume output might feel a bit low for larger spaces
  • Lacks a built-in FM radio feature compared to the original version
  • Button commands on the control panel can be difficult or stiff to operate

Verdict

The Noise Vibe 2 is a compact, 320-gram portable wireless speaker featuring a 52mm audio driver with a 5W power output and proprietary Tru Bass technology.
