MagBeat is a mini Bluetooth speaker and wireless charger

The MagBeat is a small Bluetooth speaker that attaches to compatible phones via MagSafe but puts out excellent audio comparable to larger speakers. It also doubles as a wireless charger.

I’ve always said, as long as they don’t cram too much in there — meaning, too much it’s ridiculous — it’s always good to see multi-functional products. That’s precisely how I feel about MagBeat, a rather ingenious mini Bluetooth speaker for your phone that doubles as a wireless charger. Moreover, because of how it attaches to the back of your phone, it can also be used as a pseudo stand — like those ring holders.

Audio-wise, it’s a small CNC aluminum-machined device that delivers true stereo sound. An X Bass radiator provides punchy bass. You can pair two of the MagBeat mini speakers together through TWS stereo, creating an instantly more dynamic, on-the-go audio setup with an LED equalizer. It uses Bluetooth 5.5, which offers a range of up to 33 feet and enhanced connectivity through the latest standard. Even better, the long-lasting battery delivers 10 hours of use on a single charge, and it’s IPX7 water-resistant. The latter allows you to use it safely outdoors.head banging

But basically, you can toss this little guy in your pocket or bag and take it with you everywhere. When you’re ready to jam out, or charge, just whip it out, snap it to your phone, and boom, boom, let the headbanging begin.

What makes the MagBeat mini speaker so interesting?

It’s compact, ultra-portable, and sexy. The CNC machined body comes in three colors, a solid black, gunmetal, and silver. Around the top, or outer edge, is a bright LED. That illuminates to give a cool, neon glow.

It mounts to the rear of your phone, as long as it’s compatible, via MagSafe. And works with Samsung, Google Pixel, and iPhone devices — as long as they’re MagSafe-ready.

But here’s the best part, I think. It’s accessible. A single speaker is $65 at full price, but I’ve seen them on sale often. You could grab two at a low price to use the surround-style functionality. Even if you don’t want to, one of these sounds great thanks to spatial audio technologies. It’s not difficult to imagine keeping one on hand with you. Take it on vacation, back and forth between work and home, to friends and family, to the park, in your yard, you name it.
