It features Bluetooth 4.0 streaming and has a built-in 2200 mAh battery which delivers a good 12 hours of continuous music playtime. You can also adjust the volume via touch controls by rotating clockwise the bright circle at the top (touch sensitive) of the speaker which is pretty cool.
The Cons. The DOSS Touch is slightly bulky for a portable Bluetooth speaker and does not come with handles for mounting or carrying. It is also not speaker for the outdoors.
Sound Performance
The strength of the DOSS Soundbox is its ability to deliver exceptionally good sound performance with its 12W speaker drivers and deeper bass response. The speakers are specifically designed with enhanced sound clarity and fidelity, and have less than 1% total harmonic distortion even at maximum volume. We found that this little speaker pumps out big sound considering its size and driver constraints which can easily fill up a large room. The sound is crisp, clear and detailed, and music performances sounded smooth and natural. We found that the midrange and highs are crisp and clear and the bass does not muddy into the mids – the crisp mids that stay in the forefront of the soundstage. This portable bluetooth speaker also sounded very rich and detailed outdoors where the clarity and loud maximum volume of the speaker cut through the open air.
Design
The DOSS Touch also shines in terms of convenience and portability. The touch controls are especially intuitive and easy to use, and have a very attractive LED design which makes the speaker visually stunning. You can also adjust the volume on this speaker by sliding on the top ring of the speaker which is pretty neat – a clockwise or counter-clockwise rotation will increase or decrease the volume respectively. The speaker has a very clean design and is solidly built; it’s designed specifically to be ultra-compact which means that you can easily slip it into your backpack or carry it around with any hassle. The speaker also has an in-built mic which allows you to hands free calls on the go.
Battery Life
The great thing about the DOSS Touch is that it comes with a built-in 2200 mAh rechargeable battery which provides a whopping 12 hours of playtime. The speaker is recharged by the included micro USB cable after 3 to 4 hours of charging. The Bluetooth 4.0 technology allows you to connect to virtually any Bluetooth enabled device up to 33 feet away – you can also use a micro SD card to play music or via the included audio cable. In terms of versatility, the DOSS Touch really shines in getting all the functionality included in such a small and compact speaker.
The Verdict?
The DOSS Touch is a really solid Bluetooth speaker that delivers a great combination of sound performance, wireless streaming and battery life. We particularly liked the fact that the speaker could produce crisp highs and mids, with decent bass response and can get very loud without any distortion in the sound. It is a really good feat for a budget Bluetooth speaker. The touch sensitive controls were simple and intuitive to use, and compact design also makes this speaker extremely portable and easy to carry around. The circular LED volume design at the top of the speaker works like a charm. The 12 hour battery life is also an added touch, which means that you can use this speaker for an extended period of time without having to worry about charging it. It is an all-rounded speaker with nice touch controls and great sound performance, and one of the best Bluetooth speakers that is definitely worth considering.
