Motorola is on the rise at CES. In addition to unveiling the new Razr Fold and Motorola Signature, the company also unveiled a new range of accessories at the show, including the Moto Tag 2, Moto Watch and Moto Pen Ultra stylus.
Motorola also announced a new portable speaker called Moto Sound Flow that delivers premium audio performance in a stylish design. The cylindrical speaker features a twill-textured fabric surface in two Pantone-selected colors: Carbon and Warm Taupe.
While the Moto Sound Flow is kept to a minimum on the outside, it features an impressive array of audio hardware on the inside, including a dedicated woofer, a tweeter and two passive radiators. Tuned with Sound by Bose technology, the speaker delivers up to 30W output power.
The speaker offers Wi-Fi support, allowing users to easily stream high-quality music from connected devices with a single touch, and features Bluetooth 5 for wireless pairing. Like Motorola’s new tracker, the Moto Sound Flow also has UWB support and can detect how close the user’s phone is to seamlessly route ongoing calls or music.
Moto Sound Flow’s UWB-powered features set it apart
UWB also enables a dynamic stereo function that can automatically detect the left and right channels based on the position of the phone when using two speakers. In multi-room setups, the speaker’s RoomShift feature uses UWB to locate the connected phone and automatically switch the sound to the nearest speaker.
The Moto Sound Flow is equipped with a beefy 6,000mAh battery and has an IP67 rating against dust and water, making it a great option for outdoor use too. Priced at 199 euros, it will be available in select European markets, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and Asia Pacific in the coming weeks. Motorola has not yet announced any plans to launch the speaker in North America.
