USB-C charging

Reviewers appreciate that the StormBox Mini+ uses modern USB-C for charging, viewing it as a convenient upgrade over older micro USB ports and an easy way to keep the speaker topped up.

Recent reviews praise the long overdue move to a rear USB C charging port with a snug rubber door that keeps water sand and dust out, noting that ditching the old MicroUSB makes it easier to share modern chargers and is compelling enough for some Wonderboom 3 owners to upgrade even though the bundled cable still uses USB A on the charger side.

Beyond its wireless charging base, the Move 2 can be powered directly through its USB-C port, giving owners extra flexibility to charge the speaker with common USB-C chargers when the dock is not available.

Owners like the convenience of USB C charging on the SoundLink Max and appreciate that the same port can also provide power out to other devices, reducing the number of chargers needed when travelling.

A USB-C port handles charging for the Charge 6 and can also be used for reverse charging other devices, giving the speaker simple, modern connectivity without relying on older power standards.

Owners appreciate that the Flex 2 charges over USB C as expected, but the port is limited to power input only and cannot be used for wired audio or device charging.
