Lapcare Gobeat 2 LBS-666 Review: Portable, Capable, Affordable

Consumer technology is a flourishing space right now and it seems to be unstoppable at the moment. This is especially true for the audio segment where the sky is the limit nowadays. Lapcare is one such brand that is extensively introducing products that are functional as well as affordable. The product we will be talking about here is the Lapcare Gobeat 2 LBS-666 portable speaker. In this review, I will be discussing the product in detail and figuring out whether it is worth your time and money.

What’s In The Box!

The packaging of the product is fairly decent. The box contains the speaker unit, an AUX cable, a USB-A cable, the user manual and, last but not least, documents of warranty.

First Impressions: Design and Build Quality

The Lapcare Gobeat 2 LBS-666 is a 14W Bluetooth speaker made of ABS which is a very sturdy and durable material.

One of the standout features of the Lapcare Gobeat 2 LBS-666 Speaker is its impressive sound quality. Despite its compact size, the speaker delivers rich and immersive audio with a good balance between highs, mids and lows. The sound is clear and crisp, allowing for an enjoyable audio experience, be it podcasts, movies or music. It can be classical music, rock, hip-hop or bass-heavy tracks, the speaker handles all of them well.

The design of the Lapcare Gobeat 2 LBS-666 Speaker is sleek and compact. The term that comes to mind is ‘portability‘. It has a compact form factor that makes it highly portable, allowing you to easily carry it in your bag or pocket. The speaker is well-built and feels durable, which is always a plus when it comes to portable devices. It also features a built-in rechargeable battery, providing hours of playback time, making it ideal for outdoor use or when you’re on the move.

Connectivity

Connectivity options are crucial. Today, it is all about connectivity and if a speaker fails in that aspect, it will probably fail for good. The Lapcare Gobeat 2 LBS-666, however, excels in this area. It supports multiple connectivity options, including Bluetooth, AUX input and a TF card slot. It’s not extravagant in any way but it does cover the basics.

Pairing

Bluetooth pairing is quick and hassle-free, thanks to Bluetooth v5.0. The speaker has a decent wireless range as well. The inclusion of an AUX input and TF card slot is a nice touch. Many new-age speakers are dropping these features but in India, they are still relevant.

Interface

The control interface on the Lapcare Gobeat 2 LBS-666 Speaker is quite intuitive and user-friendly. It features a few buttons for volume control, playback and mode selection, making it easy to navigate and adjust settings. Additionally, the speaker has a built-in microphone, enabling you to use it for hands-free calling or voice commands with your smartphone.

Battery

The runtime offered by the Lapcare Gobeat 2 LBS-666 is about 10 hours. The 1,200 mAH battery can get charged pretty quickly but drainage is an issue that Lapcare needs to take care of.

Verdict: Is It Worth It?

One aspect that could really use some work would be the speaker’s battery life. While the speaker offers a decent playback time and good audio quality, it would be great to have a longer run time and not look for the USB cable to charge it every few hours. This issue, however, is not a deal breaker as it can be resolved by carrying a portable power bank. Just a small tip.

My opinion on whether the Lapcare Gobeat 2 LBS-666 Speaker is worth it is simple and straightforward. This is a speaker made for the budget-sensitive consumer. Priced at INR 2,049 on e-commerce sites, this is truly a catch. Is it the best in class? Surely no. But it offers more than decent quality audio, handles highs and mids well, offers multiple connectivity options and very affordable. what else do you want at INR 2,049?

The Lapcare Gobeat 2 LBS-666 reliable and powerful audio companion for music enthusiasts. Its sound quality, portability and versatile connectivity options make it a great choice for those seeking a compact yet capable speaker while not breaking the bank.

Until next time.
