For me, having music playing while I work is an absolute necessity because it keeps me energized and helps time move a little quicker. Typically I’ll throw in my Skullcandy<\/a> earbuds, block out all the distractions, and get to work on my projects. While this is perfectly acceptable when I’m working alone at my home, it creates a myriad of potential safety concerns on professional jobsites. The DeWalt Wearable Bluetooth Speaker looks to alleviate some of these concerns while still allowing you to enjoy your favorite tunes throughout your workday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    DeWalt Wearable Bluetooth Speaker: What We Say<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \"DeWalt<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Over the past few years, I’ve had my hands on a few different Bluetooth speakers, however, none quite this compact! The setup only took about a minute and I was ready to listen and make phone calls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    So far, I’m pretty impressed with the sound quality for being such a small speaker. You certainly won’t get concert-quality sound but even at high volume, the music came through clear and free of distortion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    As for the call quality, it was hit or miss. When the speaker was clipped to my shirt pocket, I could hear, and be heard very clearly during a call. However, when I clipped it to my belt the microphone had a very difficult time picking up my voice. This isn’t a deal breaker for me. But if you do intend to make frequent calls using this device, make sure it’s located relatively close to your mouth for optimal call quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    DeWalt Wearable Bluetooth Speaker Price<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    This wearable speaker retails for $64.99 and comes with a limited lifetime warranty<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The DeWalt Wearable Bluetooth Speaker is a rugged little device that’s great for all-day personal use on the job or wherever life takes you. It did struggle a little bit as a speakerphone, but as a compact speaker, it’s a welcomed addition to my tool bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
