Creative Muvo Mini: the waterproof mini Bluetooth speaker

This week we have been able to test a new bluetooth speaker from the Creative brand, if recently we were able to test the Creative Muvo 20 and we were delighted with its power, today we are talking about a little brother, the Move Mini, designed for the kitchen, the bath and swimming pool.

And is that the latest from Creative is a speaker water and dust resistant, with a level of protection IP66, that assures us to endure almost everything we can do to it except the immersion. We have given it quite a bit and we are going to tell you our impressions.

It is necessary to start from the base that I have a Jawbone Jambox at home, the (supposed) leading speaker in this range that encompasses small size bluetooth speakers. Many of you will ask, can you compare a speaker of 150-200 euros (Jawbone) with a speaker of less than 60 euros (Creative)? It's fair? Well, maybe it shouldn't be, but in this case, with a similar size the "cheap" speaker wins by a landslide in every way.

Creative Muvo Mini it's a speaker more powerful, lighter (285 grams), cheaper and that also incorporates technology NFC (I'm looking forward to the iPhone at once having NFC to connect it with a tap instead of going to settings) and it is Waterproof. It connects using the Bluetooth 4.0 so it will hardly waste our iPhone's battery.

I can tell you everything you can see on Creative's official website: size, weight, 10 battery hours (which is charged by microUSB included), the type of speakers that uses or cHow you improve the bass with your passive radiator. But what really matters is how it behaves in real situations that we can all have in our daily lives.

The speaker is designed for the bathroom and pool, indoors there is plenty of power, and outdoors it is more than enough to liven up a party where there is noise. Despite its small size it behaves well and has good bass, it does not distort at all when we turn the volume up to the maximum.

With regard to water resistance you can see in the video how we wet it intensely, far beyond simple splashes, and it still works the same, without affecting the sound. It must also be said that we have gone further in search of the limits of the apparatus and, without actually submerging it (which in theory it would not hold), we have put the front part into the water; there if we have appreciated that the sound has been reduced since the water remains between the speaker's own drawing of course. As soon as the speaker dries Back to normal. This is a situation that should not occur in everyday life, but hey, you can drop it on a wet surface and it doesn't hurt to know that you should leave it drying for a few hours so that it returns to 100% performance.

In short, a speaker little, ideal for home and yard, with power and more than enough battery and for a price which makes it unrivaled in this range, $59,99. Available in white, black, red or blue.
