5 reasons why music fans will love the Nokia Play 360°

Unlike forward-facing speakers that only send sound in one direction, the Nokia Play 360° speaker produces an omnidirectional soundstage that fills your surroundings in every direction evenly and completely. What’s more, the sweet spot, the perfect place for listening, is substantially increased. This makes the audio clear and undistorted no matter where you are in the room.

Go into any music lover’s house and the one thing you’re almost certain to see is a bundle of wires. Thankfully, the Nokia Play 360 is triple wireless. So what does that mean in practice? Firstly, your music is streamed wirelessly from your Bluetooth device. Secondly, thanks to the 21-hour battery life at 60 % volume, there is no need for a power cable. Thirdly, if you buy two Nokia Play 360°s, no wires are needed to link them, allowing the left and right channels to play while volume control is synchronized between the speakers.

Unlike most traditional speakers, the Nokia Play 360° works with any device with Bluetooth or a 3.5 mm headphone jack. That means you’ll now be able to truly enjoy those thousands of tunes you’ve stored on your laptop, your tablet and your mobile phone. What’s more, if you’re hanging out in the park or partying with friends, it will work with their devices too.

Stereo buttons can sometimes look like the cockpit of an airliner. The Nokia Play 360° goes for a far more minimalist approach. In fact, it has just three buttons. But even better than that, it makes use of NFC technology, so that if you have an NFC phone, all you do is tap the speaker and the tunes blast out.

It goes without saying that a Nokia speaker is going to be great for listening to music on the go. Still, it’s worth highlighting that with its snazzy bag, the Nokia Play 360° is really easy to carry around, making it perfect for a party anytime, anywhere. And if you or your friends have a Nokia Play 360°, it’s incredibly simply to hook them together and double the music pleasure.

Pretty satisfying 21 Nov 2011
By Richard Hammond VINE™ VOICE
Colour Name:Black|Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
Straight out of the impressive packaging and the superb build-quality is immediately apparent. The ethos here is consistent with Nokia's very attractive newer phones such as the N8 and Lumina 800 - simple industrial design, few buttons and highly tactile materials. I like the look and feel of it a lot - this speaker is the opposite of plastic and bling: it's metal, cloth and quiet elegance.

Sound is great. It's never going to clear a room of tutting pensioners but it's more than loud enough for the usual portable uses (which in our case is to have music in the bathroom without the risk of mains electricity). There's a good degree of control too at the loudest settings - absolutely no distortion or case rattles. The overall sound is a little warm but good sources will still ting some pleasing treble over the pacey, engaging, mid-range and clean bass. This is a clear, controlled and full sound which we like very much. Fed TuneIN radio from a smartphone, the sound was always satisfying even when dropping to lower quality streams to maintain reception. Music straight off the phone through DoubleTwist Player sounds especially good.

Pairing with a selection of phones has been less satisfying - the process works fine and features a handy etching of the main instructions on the base of the speaker, but none of our phones automatically reconnect when in range. It feels like they should so rooting around phone settings to select the speaker and re-pair with it a little annoying.

But, again, here Nokia offer an elegant near-future solution in the form of NFC functionality. If you have an NFC phone then simply tapping that phone on the top of the speaker will set-up a connection. I like that idea a lot and look forward to trying it with a future handset.

At just a shade over a hundred quid and with such impressive build-quality and sound, the Nokia is pretty good value when ranged against competing models from Bose and Sony.

Colour Name:Black
I bought two of these to create a stereo speaker configuration - they were really easy to pair with each other (once paired, you can forget about them). Pairing to both my Nokia Lumia 800 and my notebook PC through Bluetooth was also straightforward, and it's easy to switch between the two.

Sound quality is fantastic - these are amongst the best desktop speakers that I've heard in this price range. The fact that they can be used completely wirelessly is a massive benefit. The speakers are also still small enough to be used in travel situations - I bring these with me for parties and weekend trips now. There's no distortion at the highest volume - and the volume coming out of these small cubes is inpressively high when you set it at full blast. Bass is fairly strong (there's some clever design in these cubes), and the treble never becomes uncomfortable.

Battery life is brilliant - unexpectedly so. Certainly, they last for a full weekend with fairly prolonged periods of music and podcasts. They intelligently turn off when there's no activity too, preserving battery life.

I cannot recommend highly enough, especially in the stereo combination. Brilliant!

A little fiddly? 26 Nov 2011
By Mad Saint Uden VINE™ VOICE
Colour Name:Black|Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
As others have said this has lovely packaging although included is a sleeve/belt carrier which is unusual for something of this size and has no holes in it to enable powerlead or jack while in use so i fully expect to loose this sleeve quite quickly.

Maybe it's me but the power button on the back of the unit is small, close to the edge of the casing and the USB socket so I am finding it's a little effort to power it on or off.

This is being used in my little girls room for her night time music so it's on approximatly 7.30-6.30 I do get two nights out of it before having to plug it in to recharge. It is replacing a set of pc speakers which were being used plugged into her mp3 player. For this it is excellent. It has less wires and a better quality of sound to me as a layman in these things. It is compact but feels sturdy and well built.

I am considering getting a bluetooth transmitter to connect to my internet radio system so that I can share the music around the house.

It's a really nice item, but for me could have been a little bit better. I would have preferred 4.5 stars just to be difficult.
