The thing is when we compare “cool”, features is something we benchmark against. Having common features like IP67 and Bluetooth is nowadays the benchmark. A decent quality BT chip is only $4-5, let’s say $10. This Boomcase is $855.

Then when we look at 16 hours... I love that because most last only 5-6 hours but then have you seen the size of that thing!

Depending on where on earth you live, solar is “clean energy” or a “Chinese OEM thing”. How many bikes with a ski do you see? Maybe that’s not your “cool thing” but it’s not a mainstream thing, yet in this ‘crossover’ and xtreme sports are they are “cool”. Maybe I don’t like them but there’s trends/upcoming trends. Not every IoT device I approve is cool in my eyes but given current market it’s still not common (not in most households) more often than not.

Trying to give you some insight in “how a mod thinks when reviewing hunts”. I actually wrote a post about that. You may also want to check out my other posts about Steemhunt as I try sharing how we think.

The thing is... I want to like that case. Because 16 hours and 3-way speaker. Now you’ve made the water-proof element obvious in the description... combined with 3-way speaker set and 16 hours I can but approve it. Even if we still don’t have BT, the combination of those features is sufficient to make it stand out.

The hunt is on.
