BlueAnt X5i Party Speaker With 120 Watts And Two Mics

Bringing the excitement straight from Australia, BlueAnt has introduced the X5i portable party speaker. With a powerful output of 120 watts, a built-in light display, and two wireless microphones included for karaoke fun, this speaker is priced at $270 and can last for up to 30 hours on a single charge. BlueAnt is confident that the mix of sound, lighting, and karaoke features will make the X5i a crowd-pleaser.

Designed for those who crave high volume without compromising on portability, the X5i weighs in at under 10 pounds. It features dual 2.3-inch tweeters and a 6.5-inch mid/bass driver, enhanced by BlueAnt’s “psycho-acoustic” bass technology. The brand claims this tech delivers an impactful and immersive audio experience. Additionally, there’s a bass boost button for those who want to amplify the low frequencies.

The X5i is not BlueAnt’s first entry into the portable speaker space—it serves as a more compact and affordable alternative to the more robust 160-watt BlueAnt X6, which retails for AUD 479 (approximately USD 303). While the X6 is aimed at those seeking higher wattage, the X5i targets a broader audience with its approachable price and lightweight design, as suggested by its promotional images.

Beyond its power, the X5i also boasts an impressive light show. Similar to competing models from brands like JBL and Soundcore, it features seven unique lighting modes that synchronize with your music, thanks to the LEDs that encircle the speaker. Whether you want a gentle ambiance or a full-blown rave vibe, the lighting effects can transform any space into a dance party.

Where BlueAnt might have an edge is in the inclusion of two wireless microphones, perfect for karaoke enthusiasts who appreciate not having to purchase extras. These mics charge directly from the speaker, eliminating the hassle of searching for batteries just when you’re ready for an encore. With a playtime of 50 hours, they are designed to have excellent range, allowing you to move freely while entertaining the crowd.

Despite its impressive capabilities, the X5i is designed for easy portability. A built-in phone and tablet holder ensures that DJ controls are conveniently at your fingertips. Additionally, with an IP54 splashproof rating, you won’t have to worry about minor rain or drink spills. Plus, the built-in power bank lets you keep your devices charged while enjoying music from your favorite streaming services.

The compact design of the X5i does not compromise on connectivity options. With Bluetooth 5.4, USB, and an AUX input available, you can easily enjoy your music regardless of your preferred method. Additionally, you can link two X5i speakers for a stereo setup, and for those willing to invest a bit more, it’s possible to connect multiple units for a more powerful sound experience at larger gatherings.

The BlueAnt X5i party speaker is currently available on Amazon for $270.
