The top has three illuminated buttons - one for power, the second for Bluetooth pairing, and the third is a multi-function button for playback and track skipping. ![]() While some people might find the lack of buttons and functions disappointing, we were impressed by the simplicity of the speaker in some ways.

There are three colour options available in India: black, blue and red, with the blue and red colours looking best in our opinion. The fabric wrap protects the drivers from water and also looks great in our opinion, especially because it changes colour a bit under different levels of light. Interestingly, the speaker is also shock resistant, rated to survive drops from up to five feet. This means that you can immerse the speaker in up to 1m of water for 30 minutes without fearing any damage, assuming you've properly sealed off the Micro-USB port at the bottom with its water-tight flap.
