Third-party reviews

What we like about Mivi Fort S24

  • Loud and clear audio quality for casual listening and small rooms
  • Sleek and premium design featuring a cloth fabric finish to prevent dust entry
  • Highly affordable pricing, often considered a top choice under ₹2000
  • Versatile connectivity options including Bluetooth 5.1, AUX, USB, and Micro SD
  • Compact and lightweight build, making it highly portable
  • Decent battery life of up to 6 hours on a single charge

What we don't like about Mivi Fort S24

  • Audio distortion occurs when volume levels exceed 70-75%
  • Bass may feel inadequate for complex music genres like classical or heavy rock
  • Lacks advanced audio features like HDMI ARC or eARC for TV connections
  • Interference/disturbance issues reported when using AUX and USB simultaneously
  • Build is primarily plastic, which some users may find less durable than metal alternatives

Verdict

The Mivi Fort S24 is a compact, portable 2.0 channel soundbar delivering 24W RMS output via dual full-range drivers and two passive radiators for enhanced bass, paired with a 2500mAh battery providing up to 6 hours of playtime. Key features include Bluetooth 5.1, versatile input options (AUX, USB, Micro SD), a stylish fabric-wrapped design, and voice assistant support. While highly affordable for its power class, the soundbar exhibits significant audio distortion above 70-80% volume, lacks a dedicated remote control, and features no IP water-resistance rating.
