Creative MUVO 10 Portable Wireless Speaker Portable speakers are usually small in size with Bluetooth and 3.5mm audio port connectivity. They give you a decent audio to enjoy your favorite music and videos. Things are limited on a small size. And when it comes to good audio with big size, then we have to go with quality. So here we are going to check out the MUVO series by Creative that consist of three speaker models. The first one is MUVO Mini, which is a portable water resistance speaker with upto 10 hours of battery life. The second one is MUVO 10 which we are going to review today. It is a big size speaker that offers you high volume audio output with upto 8hrs of battery. And the last one is MUVO 20, which is almost identical to MUVO 10, but is bigger in size. Creative MUVO series is designed to give you maximum comfort and good audio. Only MUVO Mini in this series is water resistant. Others are not. All this three models are unique and loaded with smart audio technology. Like the BasXPort. It helps you to get a decent party type sound performance. MUVO 10 is a decent size speaker whose dimension is 105.0 x 320.0 x 113.0 mm. It is enough to cover a major part of your computer desk. The weight is around 925g. It is a big size speaker with full range drivers and further supported by BasXPort technology deliver. This enhances the sound and can let you enjoy your music and videos with your phone. The design also makes it easy to move. Creative added a handle type layout on the speaker that does not need any separate bag to carry. Design is not very catchy, but looks like durable. Most of the portable speakers come with flat horizontal placement. It has Bluetooth and NFC connectivity. And there is a 3.5mm audio jack also. Connectivity is not a big issue here. It was launched for Rs.8000, but you can find that on Snapdeal for Rs.4000 approx. The cost changes depending on the online seller. It is a bit costly product under a portable speaker category. I first thought the entire MUVO series is water resistant. This can help you to carry the speaker near pool. Only MUVO Mini brings you water resistant design. The speaker comes with 8 hours of battery backup, which is enough for an entire day usage. We will checkout MUVO in more details, but first let's have a look on the features and specification.

NFC, Bluetooth and 3.5mm audio jack are the most common connectivity options you have. You can connect the speaker to various devices and enjoy a smooth and quality audio streaming. The speaker works well up to 8 hours once charged and if not playing the audio at a high volume. The sound gets a bit messed up at max volume. This can be due to the driver limitation. But if you are having some good quality beats in the songs, the audio output remains perfect. Sound effects also work well on this if you are playing your songs through a PC. Equalizer settings can help you to get clear sound with less dispersion. I will recommend you to play sound at a decent level if you really want to enjoy the bass output. Even after having BasXPort technology the audio gets bad at maximum volume and the entire bass is a mess. I found the speaker amazing for portable devices. Overall being a branded product, you have to worry less about the quality. But if this can be a waterproof design like MUVO Mini, then it can help us to use it in different conditions. Conclusion: Creative MUVO 10 Portable Wireless Speaker is an amazing loud speaker for outdoors. It can be your entertainment solution for picnics, pool party, outing, etc. A big size speaker also needs space to keep it well before carrying. The design is not so strong to handle shock or water. Those things you have to check. It has an easy handle in the body that can let you to carry it easily and play music at the same time. The range is quite well here. The cost of this speaker lies around Rs.4000 approx. I did not find the speaker costly in terms of price.
