Say hello to the Sony PumpX, a portable speaker system which connects to your devices wirelessly for streaming music whilst on the go. The device has been brought over to India carrying a price tag of Rs 7990 and it has a lot to offer for the said amount.
The Sony PumpX is also known as the SRS-X2 and has been on the market for almost a year now. Its late arrival in India is no surprise, but it’s does look to be quite overpriced. The company’s global website has it listed at $69.99 which amounts to just Rs 4355. That’s an extra Rs 3635 you’ll be paying for the speaker system in the country.
The Sony device has a pretty alluring design and it comes in multiple colors of black, red and white. The system packs a total of 20W of power through dual speakers and a 45mm driver. Like most wireless speakers, this one also connects to your smartphones and tablets via Bluetooth. It supports version 3.0 standard, making it compatible even with older gadgets.
