While your smartphone or tablet might have a built-in speaker, these should really only be reserved for the occasional YouTube video or hands-free call. You don't want to listen to music through them if you want to do your tunes justice. Bluetooth speakers are a much better alternative, and the great news is there are plenty of options to suit different budgets or needs. What is Bluetooth? Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows communication over short distances. You might remember it from slightly unreliable handsfree headsets from years gone. Nowadays, Bluetooth technology has gone through a number of revisions and is more reliable than ever and is capable of carrying enough data for high-quality music.
As such, Bluetooth speakers have risen in popularity. Every smartphone and tablet will have support for Bluetooth, as will most laptops. Otherwise, an inexpensive USB Bluetooth dongle can add support.
These will let you connect your music source of choice to your Bluetooth speaker. Whether it's a CD in your laptop's drive, to a locally stored MP3 file or streamed music from the internet - such as BBC Radio via iPlayer or the latest songs on Spotify. When it comes to different kinds of Bluetooth and codecs, it's worth keeping an eye out for Bluetooth aptX support. The aptX codec is usually only supported on more expensive Bluetooth speakers due to the licensing cost, but it allows for a higher quality transmission, resulting in CD quality songs to be played without any loss of detail.
Pairing a Bluetooth device is straightforward. You'll just need to put the speaker into pairing mode (the method will differ based on manufacturer, but it's usually obvious how) and then search for the speaker on your device. Otherwise, NFC (near field communication) can let you pair your device to an NFC-compatible speaker simply by touching the two together, automating the entire process.

Any Bluetooth speaker worth its salt will usually last upwards of at least 8 hours and some will go into double figures.
Most speakers will charge over a Micro USB cable, which is handy as you can often get by only carrying one charger for your smartphone, tablet and Bluetooth speaker (unless you're an 'iDevice' owner). Some Bluetooth speakers aren't designed for moving around, so don't have a battery and will instead need to be plugged into your mains. What these lack in portability they should make up with fuller and richer sound. Ruggedised and waterproof Bluetooth speakers make great holiday or outdoor companions, too.
You can find waterproof and ruggedised models that are ideal to take beside the pool, or on outdoor adventures, without worrying about them getting damaged. The ruggedised models will have shock-proofing, so they can handle occasionally being thrown around or dropped.
