About Wave Bluetooth-Lautsprecher

Wave ass e portabele Bluetooth-Lautsprecher mat enger fléissender, wellenähnlecher Form. D'Form erënnert un Schallwellen, déi sech duerch d'Loft bewegen. En zweesäitegt gewéiwent Stoff bedeckt de Kierper an reflektéiert Liicht a Schiet op wiesselnd Aart a Weis. E Full-Range-Loudspeaker mat engem Seltenerd-Neodym-Magnéitandrive, engem ultradënnen anodiséierten Aluminiumskonus an engem 58 mm passiven Radiator erzeugt den Sound. D'Kontrollknäpp sinn uewen ugebruecht, an zwee Geräter kënnen dobäi drahtlos gepaart ginn. Eng elastesch Schlauslinn befestegt de Lautsprecher un engem Vëlo oder engem Rucksak. Déi gewellten, rutschfest Uewerfläch mécht de Lautsprecher einfach ze halen.

Unique Properties: Wave Bluetooth Speaker features a flowing shape, outstanding sound quality and excellent sustainability. It is designed to simulate the sound wave in the air in the form of the fabric and ultimately return to the essence of sound. The double-sided woven surface of the fabric reflects different lights and shadow changes to increase the sense of movement. The high-performance full-range loudspeaker with strong magnetic drive made of NdFeB ensures immersive audio effects. The elastic lanyard attaches it easily to bicycles, backpacks, etc. Thanks to the corrugated shape and non-slip fabric surface, the product can be held comfortably in the hand.
Dimensions & Packaging: 110*110*50mm
Production Technology: 2-inch ring rare-earth NdFeB high-intensity magnetically driven full-frequency speaker, ultra-thin anodized aluminum vibration cone, and 58mm circular passive radiator. The sound pressure is up to 90dB, and the low frequency goes down to 65Hz.
Design Challenge: The challenge in the design process is how to combine organic form with a reasonable layout of electronic components.
Research: After 11 months of working with several designers, NIO Life's team of designers came up with more than 10 different designs, turning them over and over again in order to better present the design of Wave's sound waves. After the design is confirmed, the appearance and the shape have been adjusted for many times, while the angle of the surface wave and the process of the buttons were constantly optimized.
Inspiration: The designer explored many possibilities in the early design and finally decided to seek inspiration from the nature of sound. The result is a visually dynamic, regularly repeating waveform that subtly combines the form and function of sound transmission.
Project Duration: Opening of the project in 1.2020, first sale in 8.2021.
Operation Flow: Control buttons are on the top of the product and users can connect to audio devices through Bluetooth. TWS pairing speaker is also available, providing rich soundscapes.
