Audio Pro P5 Portable Bluetooth Speaker (Black)

Product Information

There’s support for MP3, AAC, WMA, Apple Lossless and FLAC audio files via the aux input, and that is your lot on the features side. A short story indeed. Sound Quality

Played at half volume, the P5’s battery life stretches to 14 hours – easily enough for a day’s entertainment – indoors or out. The sound quality isn’t perfect, audiophiles might notice a bit of distortion here and there, but for most people, it’s perfectly fine and it’s pretty loud. You’ll also get manual control over the bass in the smartphone app, or choose between three different preset sound modes.One of the most distinctive features is the multicoloured light ring around the top - it definitely jazzes up the design a little because the light dances to music. In the day it’s a bit underwhelming but at night it looks pretty cool.So you may well be thinking the Audio Pro BT5 could fill a gap and look rather nice on a shelf somewhere. It’s simple, stylish and effective – maybe there was room for one more Bluetooth speaker after all. To hear your music as the artist intended, add another P5 for TWS (True Wireless Stereo) sound. Stereo sound recreates the stage effect, letting you easily distinguish between all the different instruments and vocals. Having two speakers also increases the volume and bass impact, making the music even more immersive. Out of all of the speakers on this list, the Huawei Sound Joy offers the most in the way of battery life. You can listen to music non-stop for 26 hours straight - that makes this one of the best options to take away with you on a camping trip or weekend away. When it does finally run out of juice, you can plug it in for 10 minutes to get an extra hour of music. That’s very handy if you forget to charge it before you hit the road. Connection is via Bluetooth 5.0 and two P5’s can be paired to play in stereo. Battery life is quoted as 4 hours at full volume, however running at half volume will extend that to 14 hours. The Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 3 is undoubtedly the best cheap Bluetooth speaker on this list, combining good sound with an ultraportable design and effective 360-degree audio. It's just a straight-up Bluetooth speaker but you can pair two of them together either in stereo or dual mono.Clearly meant to be taken to wherever the party is, it's also fully waterproof – in fact, it even floats. Being IP57 rated, it's also well protected against grit, saltwater, dust and beach-side sand, so long as you keep the USB charger cover in place.

It feels robust, like a speaker that could survive some drops and remain unperturbed by scratches and scuff marks. At 729g the P5 is not insubstantial in terms of weight – Audio Pro says you could put this in your travel luggage for holidays and at 22 x 9.7 x 5.3cm (HWD) that is true, but it’s not any smaller than the competition. The Marshall Emberton II, for example, is more compact. In our testing, we were impressed by the sound quality but we really enjoyed the Outdoor Boost because it makes the audio a bit less bassy and a little more shrill. It doesn't sound better than the normal mode, clearly, but it 'cuts through' better and is a handy addition. In an emergency, you can also still charge your phone from the Wonderboom 2, as long as you have the right Micro-USB cable which I doubt many people will. Rated to IPX4 level, the P5 is tough enough to take rain and water splashes in its stride. This makes it ideal for use by the pool, kitchen, bathroom or just outside during a typical British summer downpour! Durable construction and rounded edges make it bag-friendly on the move, too.Audio Pro is known for making speakers with a simple, modern design and fantastic sound. Their smallest is the Audio Pro P5, it doesn’t have tonnes of features but it does deliver music in the way that it was meant to be heard.Small enough to fit in your bag, it’s the perfect music-listening companion for those who care more about quality than anything else. With award-winning speakers across their range, Audio Pro are one of the most highly respected brands in the business. The Scandinavian company puts strong emphasis on sound quality, with their advanced speaker tech producing detailed and vibrant sound. Equally strong on style, their timeless speakers never fail to hit the mark. With the P5, you get all the usual Audio Pro qualities, plus weatherproof portability.

The Audio Pro imports some good levels of detail in retrieving the crashing cymbals in Avail’s The Bad Plus, but it can’t quite make up for the P5’s more muddied midrange. Instruments blend into one another rather than being distinctly identifiable, and again, the Charge 5 tonally strikes a more natural manner in presenting instruments, as well as better separation and organising the soundstage in a neater, clearer way. So is it a bad thing that Audio Pro has kept everything else simple here? I don’t think so, the focus is well and truly on the sound quality and that’s quite refreshing. What makes it even better is that it's not that expensive either. It would be hard not to recommend this speaker! Audio Pro P5 review: also consider Warm and rich are two words to describe the direction Audio Pro has taken with the P5. At its best, the P5 offers a fun, lively sound that puts you in the mood for heading outdoors, or indeed, enjoying its sound when you’re outside.With Bluetooth 5.0, the P5 delivers quality, wireless music streaming. Compatible with a wide range of Bluetooth devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops and PCs, the P5 is the ideal way to free your stored music. It's also the perfect way to listen to streaming music services like Spotify, Deezer and Apple Music, using your existing smartphone or tablet as the source. For other, wired sources, the P5 has a 3.5mm, AUX input. Weighing in at just over half a kilo, there’s little chance of it taking your suitcase over the weight limit at the airport when you’re ready to fly again. There’s no support for the Audio Pro app, but the P5 does support stereo pairing with another P5 speaker with its TWS (True Wireless Stereo) feature. A Bluetooth 5.0 wireless connection is provided (no mention of codecs) and while the connection has been consistent, you won’t want to travel too far (say more than 10m) as the connection doesn’t extend as far as the Charge 5. The P5 as you might expect really sounds very good, the bass and treble sound fantastic, the bass adds detail and does not get overridden considering the size of the speaker. When listening to something like Kate Nash Foundations the vocals sound beautifully pure without any harshness you might see from other speakers. The recommended volume is 50% volume but the higher you go past 50% volume it does impact the battery life this is mainly due to the high fidelity of the speaker. Featuring a powerful, 35 watt amp and two-way speaker system, the P5 delivers the rich, full-bodied sound quality you’d expect from the brand. Whether used indoors or out, the sound is powerful enough to cut through the surroundings, reproducing your music with clarity and precision.

Pairing the device is very normal to any other device I have paired via my phone and was very easy and not problematic at all. Even when pairing to a second device just press and hold the pairing buttons of both speakers and they will pair. Unfortunately, I was only given one speaker to review so could not test the stereo mode.

The features are, as you’re about to find out, a short story.

On a tight budget? The Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 2 is the portable speaker you should buy in that case. It’s tiny, waterproof and has surprisingly good sound - it’s not perfect though, you won’t get anywhere near the same level of audio quality as you get here. It is much cheaper though so you win some, you lose some. If you want a speaker with energetic, accurate and punchy sound then the Audio Pro P5 does not disappoint. You can hear every detail across the lows, mids and highs, something that portable speakers aren’t always able to get across, especially with the amount of volume you get here. It goes really loud! That’s all thanks to a 1-inch tweeter, 3.2-inch long-throw woofer and 35W amplifier.
