Ultimate Ears, Logitech’s go-to brand for portable speakers, has recently expanded its lineup with both the mid-range EVERBOOM and the pint-sized MINIROLL. The MINIROLL marks the exciting return of a classic design, reminiscent of the much-loved ROLL and ROLL 2 speakers that were retired in 2019. Now, it’s back and better than ever, promising a powerful audio experience in an ultra-compact package.
Portability Meets Performance
At just $79.99, the MINIROLL is a budget-friendly option that doesn’t skimp on features. Its sleek design combines a durable hard plastic rear shell with a firm polyester mesh front, offering both style and protection. You’ll find the signature oversized volume buttons on the front, making it easy to adjust your sound even on the go.
One of the MINIROLL’s standout features is its versatile rubber-like strap, spanning the entire back of the speaker. This strap cleverly unhooks, allowing you to attach the speaker to virtually anything – backpack straps, belts, leashes, cooler handles, or even small rods like tent supports.
Measuring a little over 4 inches in diameter and weighing less than 10 ounces, the MINIROLL is truly pocket-sized. It’s also built to withstand the elements, boasting an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance and surviving drop tests from up to 1.2 meters. Whether you’re hiking, camping, or lounging by the pool, the MINIROLL is ready for adventure.
User-Friendly Controls and Long Battery Life
In addition to the prominent volume controls, the MINIROLL houses discreet power/pairing and play/pause buttons on its left side. These buttons offer intuitive controls, allowing you to power on/off, initiate Bluetooth pairing, play/pause, skip tracks, and even check the battery level with a simple press.
Charging the MINIROLL is a breeze thanks to its USB-C port, and a full charge provides an impressive 12 hours of playtime. While you’ll need to bring your own USB-C cable, the speaker recharges in under 3 hours, ensuring you’re never without your favorite tunes for long.
Small Size, Big Sound
Despite its compact size, the MINIROLL delivers surprisingly powerful audio. It features a 45.6 mm active driver and a passive radiator, producing directional sound with a peak volume of 85.5 dB. While it might not fill a large room, it’s more than capable of providing ample volume for personal listening or small gatherings.
Need even more sound? The MINIROLL supports PartyUp mode with Auracast technology, allowing you to sync an unlimited number of speakers for a truly immersive experience. Simply activate PartyUp on the primary speaker and let others join the party with a long press of their play/pause button.
Availability and Colors
The MINIROLL is available for purchase and it comes in four attractive colors: Gentle Black, Majestic Blue, Revive Grey, and Calming Pink. With its compact size, powerful sound, and versatile design, the MINIROLL is the perfect companion for music lovers on the move.
