There is no doubt that the mobile market is beginning to become the focus of hardware manufacturers. In many ways this market is eclipsing what we are seeing for more mainstream computer systems. One of the biggest reasons for this is that while most people will own a phone or portable media player only a fraction of that group will own a desktop computer. Because of this the demand for high-quality components and accessories has been growing at an exponential rate. Even companies that were once dedicated to the more traditional “PC” are starting to build devices for the mobile market. A couple of areas that are growing very quickly are power and audio. Here you have two very vital functions that anyone with a mobile device needs to think about. You have to have power to keep things going and most (if not all) will want a way to listen to their media on more than just the bundled set of headphones. Today we are taking a look at a product from LUXA2 that addresses both of these areas with style. So let us introduce the LUXA2 GroovyW Bluetooth speaker set and wireless charging unit.

Value -
Value is another very subjective topic. What is expensive to some might be a deal to others. You can look at this topic in multiple ways. One is raw price and the other is what you get for the money. Each is accurate and both are correct ways to look at price/value. We tend to look at features, performance and real-property when we discuss value. However, we also take into account the raw cash cost of the item.  We found the GroovyW for sale online at around $110. This is a pretty nice price to pay for a wireless speaker let alone a wireless speaker AND wireless charging pad. Most of the speakers in this quality / feature range were right at $100 and did not include many of the things you get with the GroovyW (not to mention the charging pad). So for $10 extra you get a ton more, I would call that a pretty good value.

Conclusion -
I am not sure what else we can say about the GroovyW. It is not the best speaker on the planet, but it certainly does an outstanding job at reproducing audio from your mobile (and not so mobile devices). It has solid battery life and a feature set that is rather impressive. LUXA2 has given the GroovyW a great price point that is sure to have an impact on the big guys in the market. With its combination of performance, features and price the choice to give the GroovyW an editor’s choice award was a no brainer.
