 Hey guys, I'm Olivia and I'm Kyle and we're driving in Vibein and you're watching Road Gear Reviews. Today we're going to talk about some powerful outdoor audio equipment so stay tuned. What's up everyone? This is the Braven BVRX and it is the powerful piece of audio equipment we're going to be talking about today. It's a super rugged outdoor speaker and out of the box it comes with this strap to help secure it down to your bike, kayak or whatever else to keep it in place for your outdoor adventure. It also comes with an auxiliary cord and an AC power plug with some adapters. And those adapters are good for countries around the world to plug it into whatever outlet you're in so you can always have power no matter where you're at. It's a pretty great size. It's big enough to have a great sound but also compact enough to take with you in your backpack or wherever. It's nine inches and about one and a half pounds. So it is like Olivia said capable of putting out that good sound and fits no matter where you're going. One of the best parts about this speaker is that it's super rugged. It's got this rubber exterior that makes it shock absorbent but best of all you can drop it in water because it's IPX7 waterproof certified. It's also got 12 hours of playtime so whatever you're doing whether you're on a long bike ride, camping, a full day of kayaking you will have music to guide your way. And with those 12 hours you have five lights here on the back that light up and give you a really good idea about how much battery you got left. And not to mention you can even plug in whatever you're streaming music from into the speaker to give that power too. Yeah so it has some different USB ports on the back. It also has this auxiliary port to plug in whatever device you have. And like he said there's the little lights on the back to tell you how much battery you have left. And that auxiliary port can hook up to whatever device you got that doesn't have Bluetooth capabilities and let you still listen to music directly with that cord. One of our favorite features of the speaker is the indoor and outdoor mode. Inside it has a nice bass tone to it and outside it will project a little bit more to get a louder sound. But if you want even more sound you can get two Bravins and pair them together and get that really good sound that can cut through large spaces outside or provide a lot of bass if you're inside. It also has a built in microphone and speaker phone capabilities so if you get a phone call while you're listening to music on your phone you can just click accept and talk to whoever on the other end. Yeah but just make sure it's a conversation you want heard because it's going to be pretty loud on this thing. The speaker has a 33 foot range so you can leave your laptop or your iPhone inside and bring the speaker outside. We do this often and bring it out by the campfire or wherever. Maybe you don't want your phone in the sand or in the sun and so it's really awesome to be able to get that distance and be able to play so remotely the Bluetooth is really strong in this thing. So those are the specs of the Braven BVRX. Now we're going to talk about how we actually use it in our day to day life and this truly is one of the things we use every single day from the moment we wake up to when we go to sleep. And we'll first start talking about how we use it in our camper. So we like to start our day off really mellow and put on some tunes right as we wake up and make our coffee and make breakfast. And at night we like to watch a movie and connect to the speaker and get a really full surround sound type feel. Yeah because of its size we have a perfect place for it up in the corner of the camper so it projects the sound throughout really easily. And it's worked great for that so far. We also love to use this thing outside of our camper. So during the day we like to take the speaker outside to hang out with friends or sit around and just hang out. It's nice to have some good background music. We can also take in our backpack on a hike or on a picnic and have music available in those situations. But we've just found out our favorite outdoor function of this thing and it is during outdoor movie night. We have a projector that we like to project movies on our camper sometimes with our friends. And the Braven speaker has been really awesome to get a big enough sound for everyone to hear and everyone understand what's going on. So those are the ways we use the Braven speaker. We really do love it. It's been great as far as sound is concerned and as far as durability. We've taken this thing all the way from the shores of lakes and glacier out here to the desert and it has performed well throughout. The Braven speaker hasn't disappointed us yet and we've really enjoyed it. But if you've used it we'd love to hear your experience and also if there are any other products you'd like us to review please leave those in the comments below. And don't forget guys Road Gear Reviews has new videos coming out every Wednesday so keep an eye out for that.
