Honeywell Trueno U300 speaker review: Experience sonic pleasure at a reasonable price

livemint.com:

₹5,999 but can be purchased for a little over ₹2,500 on most retail platforms.Before receiving the product, I was convinced that it looked like a Bose SoundLink Flex rip off. But when I received the Honeywell Trueno U300, I was pleasantly surprised by its design and build quality. Let's be clear, there's nothing radical happening here; this speaker is conventionally functional.There are buttons on the top for added controls, and twin bass radiators at the back, along with a Type-C charging port, AUX input, micro SD card support, and USB playback.

The design is straightforward and plays safe, which is not a bad thing in this case. While the Blue colour wouldn't be my first choice if I were buying it, it is still a conventionally good-looking speaker. Even then, it feels a little rubbery to hold, which makes me worry about its long-term storage, as such material tends to become sticky after some time.At the same time, this plastic-rubbery construction provides durability and resistance against accidental drops or bumps.

Would I call this speaker compact? Not really, but it's still easy to carry around, if you have a bag, that is!However, there is a design flaw in this product. It keeps falling face front and does not sit comfortably in the first attempt. You need to make extra effort to stably put it down on a flat surface, which just feels like a design oversight.
