Till now the impression and expectation from a portable speaker is that you go for hiking, you setup basecamp and then you bring out the gadgets from the rucksack. But Philips plan to change it all, they want you to listen to your favorite songs while you are at climbing that cliff face , just like Tom cruise in MI. The rugged Philips Shoqbox ($180) is a roughly tube-shaped speaker and features two 4-watt neodymium speaker drivers, dual bass radiators, an eight-hour rechargeable lithium battery, Bluetooth for wireless audio streaming, a water resistant cover to protect the USB charging port and 3.5mm aux jack, a shock- and splash-proof design, and a built-in metal loop for clipping it to your bag or belt using a carabiner.
