Review on πŸ”Š Android Speaker Dock with Bluetooth - Philips Fidelio AS851/37 by Tony Guernsey

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nothing like it, sounds great, expensive

My only complaint about it is the price, it works great and sounds great but $200 seems way too high. I think they can afford that luxury when there really isn't such a thing. Charging and dock work flawlessly, you can easily adjust the plug to be in the correct position for any phone with a micro USB connector, allowing the phone to connect to the dock with ease. The audio uses Bluetooth, so you need to make sure your phone supports Bluetooth audio. I had no problems with HTC Droid Incredible and Motorola Droid X. Just install the Philips Fidelio app, turn on the dock and your sound comes out of the speaker. Once you set up your phone with a speaker for the first time you no longer need the Fidelio app, I removed it and my phone still works with the dock. The sound quality is REALLY good. The bass is quite deep and can sound quite loud, easily enough to fill a large room. It also has an additional audio input for a second device and a second socket (micro-USB) for charging another phone. The remote control is a nice addition too, it's nice to be able to adjust the volume and turn it on or off remotely.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Crumpled
