Devialet Chat

It’s a new portable loudspeaker called Devialet Mania.

can it be used as a stand alone multiroom speaker using ac power and connect in phrase with phantom using devialet app?

Looks like an Alibaba product. Over the years I have convinced many people that Devialet isn't just a luxury lifestyle brand but actually really disruptive HiFi thanks to incredible engineering. The convincing is getting harder and harder.

For me it looks great , so it's like always a question of taste.

The question is if it is designed to be outdoor friendly or not. In my opinion, for in-house usage Phantoms are already cool. If Devialet say portable I expect it to compete with the others that have IPXX water protection but from the look I have a feeling that it has fabric coating. For me, only reason to buy a battery driven speaker is to use it outdoor but seems like this won't fit to my taste. Let's wait for the website to be back and we can see the details.

Ha! £690 for a phone speaker.

I'm sure it will sound great. Imo, pricing seems fine assuming it will deliver and you're OK with the appearance. What's wrong with a "phone speaker"? Want to bring your turntable to BBQ on the lake?

I would expect not only Bluetooth 5.0 but Airplay 2 as well. A high protection class, at least IPx4, against dust and water would make sense.

You called it well.

- Bluetooth 5.0 (A2DP, AVRCP)
- Airplay 2
- Spotify Connect 
- Ipx4

Looks very nice to me.
A bit pricey but i don´t know how it sounds, yet.
