~~Authentic Samsung Level Box~~

Level Box

is a premium and compact Bluetooth speaker that features a solid metal design complete with a full metal grille. With a large (56mm) stereo speaker and a passive radiator, the system is optimized to deliver high quality sound that is powerful, crisp and balanced. The dedicated hardware design provides noise reduction and echo cancellation, and built-in microphone deliver clear voice, making it ideal for phone calls and conference calls.

 

Users can simply place a Near-Field Communications (NFC) enabled smartphone near the Level Box to quickly and easily make a connection. Devices without NFC capabilities can still be effortlessly connected through the speaker’s one touch Bluetooth pairing system. Controlling the speaker is also easy with its built-in buttons that allow you to play or stop a song, adjust the volume, and even accept or reject calls. Users can enjoy up to 15 hours of continuous playback through the Level Box’s rechargeable battery. 

Performance

Connecting to the Level Box with a Samsung device (or other Android equipped with NFC) was easy enough, thanks to the NFC panel on the side. It was only slightly less convenient to pair with my iPhone 5s, however. The connection is solid and doesn’t waver at all in my testing, too.

On the speaker, the buttons let you control volume and also answer and end calls, as well as play or pause tracks. These also worked well, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that notifications from your phone interrupt the audio even when you’re using it hardwired via the 3.5mm line in jack on the back.

As a speakerphone, it performs well, too, delivering audio that was easy for those I called to understand. But for music, the sound quality wasn’t all that great. It’s lacking compared to the top performers in its price range, like the Jambox, as it’s a bit tinny at times. But it’s still a very capable speaker, so long as you’re not heavily into base, and that makes sense for a small device like this.

Battery life performed as advertised, and I was able to use the speaker for at least 15 hours without recharging, with a mix of wireless and wired usage.

Design

The Samsung Level Box is a well-designed piece of hardware. It features an all-metal enclosure with a metal grille to protect the speaker components too.
