What customers like about Sound2Go Briq Studio

  • Good overall sound clarity and a distinct stereo effect for its small size
  • Highly portable, compact, and lightweight design
  • Versatile connectivity options, including Bluetooth, NFC fast pairing, AUX input, and a MicroSD card slot
  • Robust, sturdy build quality featuring a protective silicone rubber band
  • IPX4 splash protection making it suitable for outdoor use, poolside, or in the bathroom

What customers don't like about Sound2Go Briq Studio

  • Weak or slightly lacking deep bass performance due to the compact speaker dimensions
  • Noticeable background static hiss or noise when playing audio over a Bluetooth connection

Verdict

The Sound2Go Briq Studio is a portable 2 x 3 Watt RMS stereo Bluetooth 3.0 speaker measuring 164 x 74 x 50 mm and weighing 415 grams, featuring a robust, rubberized silicone-wrapped housing with an IPX4 splash-proof rating. Main pros include versatile connectivity options like automatic NFC pairing, a micro-SD card slot for standalone playback, an AUX-in port, an integrated hands-free microphone, a frequency response of 80Hz–18kHz, a high signal-to-noise ratio of ≥95dB, and a 1200 mAh lithium-polymer battery providing up to 10 hours of runtime. However, prominent cons include its older Bluetooth 3.0 standard, a lack of an integrated battery level indicator, and a relatively heavy build for its compact size.
