Review: BRAVEN 705 – Listen, Splash, Charge, Call

We’ve seen a lot of the great speaker products coming from Braven in recent years, and the new 705 which will hit Aussie stores in October is a cracking little product which will suit either your kitchen, office or outdoor entertaining.

The Braven 705 is small, but powerful.  The sound is strong and the battery will last you 12 hours of playtime.

Being IPX5 water-resistant you’ll be able to have the Braven 705 poolside, bathside or just outdoors for your BBQ with no reason to worry.

With a built-in microphone you can also use it for hands-free calling from your mobile.

To top it all off, the 705 is also a power pack for your smartphone, so you can plug in your USB from the smartphone to the Braven 705 and add some juice to a drained phone.

It’s a good look, available in a range of colours, and offers a decent sound.

Clearly you can get a stronger sound or deeper bass from other larger speakers, but pound for pound, cm for cm the 705 from Braven bats well into the top of the averages.
