Aquio dives into the hydration market with its line of premium double-wall stainless-steel hydration bottles that come in four trendy colors and feature an integrated, modular waterproof Bluetooth speaker powered by iHome. Designed in the USA, Aquio is manufactured with high-quality stainless steel that is BPA-free. Aquio’s removable speaker is IP67-rated waterproof, sand-proof, and features a sophisticated weather-resistant acoustic fabric.
Modular Design: Bottle + Speaker
“We designed Aquio to make a fashion statement, represent best-in-class hydration technology and have the added cool factor of a detachable iHome Bluetooth speaker,” said Nisan Davydov, Aquio and iHome Marketing. “From the materials used, to how it feels in your hand, even its stylish look and impressive sound quality, everything about our Aquio hydration bottles exudes premium quality. Customers will love the modular design of the product, as it gives them the option to use the bottle and speaker separately or together in addition to changing the colors up.”
Double Wall Insulated Bottle
Water Bottle
The Aquio does it’s job when if comes to keeping the temperature of liquids, it will keep drinks ice cold for up to 24 hours or steaming hot for up to 14 hours. The mouth on the water bottle is just the right size to allow for ice cube filling, albeit only one at a time. The downside of the water bottle is that it is only 16 ounces, which isn’t enough for long hikes or an entire day at the beach.
Use them together or apart! Waterproof Rechargeable iHome speaker unscrews from bottle for separate use.
Speaker
The Aquio modular 5-watt (RMS) speaker is powered by iHome, who is well knowing for their quality audio offerings. And the speaker delivers for it size, offering up a good range of radial tones that don’t drop out when the volume gets pushed towards it’s limits. On the note of volume, the speaker is lacking any physical volume controls, which means that any changes will need to come from the music playing device. The speaker is of course bluetooth, rechargeable, iP67 Certified waterproof and sandproof and offers up just about 6 hours of continuous playback. The Aquio also features a built in speakerphone with digital voice echo cancellation that works great for taking calls.
