Review: Fugoo Style XL Portable Bluetooth Speaker<img src="
" />
Fugoo's oversized Style XL ($280) is one of the follow-ups to last year's smaller Fugoo speakers. We say "one of the follow-ups" because Fugoo does things a bit differently — though the company's website lists six different speakers, these actually represent different functional cases ("Jackets") that fit over two different sizes of "Core" speakers (last year's Core and the new Core XL). Each Core speaker can be purchased with either a Style Jacket (plastic and fabric construction, available in colors), Sport Jacket (like the Style, but with shock-absorbing rubber edges), or Tough Jacket (aluminum construction, thick rubber edges). Each Jacket is attractive and functional, and allows the user to change the body of the speaker to fit its intended use. The Style XL weighs in at 3.8 pounds; we assume the tougher bodies will make it even heavier. Interestingly, the price also differs by jacket. Style XL is the least expensive; Sport XL ($300) adds glow in the dark control buttons; and the rugged Tough XL ($330) has aluminum plating and stainless steel grills. Other available accessories include a variety of mounts to suit almost any activity.{/exp:char_limit}
