It's got to be difficult to stand out in the competitive world of iPod and iPhone speakers, but Logitech has a reputation for style and quality. Today, the company announced two new portable solutions. So how do they stand out?
The Logitech Rechargeable Speaker S315i (shown above) can play music for 20 hours (in power saving mode) when fully charged. It looks like a great solution for cookouts or camping, anytime you're outside and away from an outlet for a long time. Besides working with iPods and iPhones, you can connect any other music player through the 3.5mm audio jack. It's available for preorder for $129.99, and will ship this month.
The Logitech Portable Speaker S125i is a smaller model, but it still offers a big sound thanks to the one-button bass boost. It doesn't have an internal battery like the S315i, but requires four AA batteries (for 10 hours of playing time) or an AC outlet. It works with iPods, not iPhones, and offers a 3.5mm audio jack for connecting other types of music players. Preorder it for $69.99 and it will ship in September.
PCMag's own audiophile, lead analyst Tim Gideon, says he'll likely be reviewing both in the near future, so watch for that.
