I tested these viral 'crush-proof' Bluetooth speakers, and they're not your average portables


If your other Bluetooth speakers can't keep up with your rugged lifestyle, Turtlebox has two durable speakers that dare you to do your worst.

It sports a boombox-style form factor, a handle for portability, 25 hours of playtime, an IP67 water and dustproof rating, and reverse USB-C charging capabilities. At $430, Turtlebox asks a steep price for a speaker that has the same features as its competitors from Bose, JBL, or Marshall, but its extremely tough design sets it apart. If you spend a lot of time outdoors and haven't found a Bluetooth speaker that can withstand the elements, the Turtlebox Gen 3 or Ranger are solid choices.
