In a world where audio moves with you—from your home to the backyard, from your desk to your bag—it’s more important than ever to choose a speaker that not only sounds great, but also moves with you in style. At UB+, we believe your speaker should be both a powerful audio centerpiece and a design statement. That’s why we created the S1 Circle a true round bluetooth speaker that blends immersive sound, premium build, smart connectivity and portability.
Why This Design Matters
When you see the “round bluetooth speaker” concept, you might imagine novelty-shaped audio gear. But with the UB+ S1 Circle, the shape is far more than a visual statement—it is an acoustic choice.
- The sphere/ball form factor supports 360° sound dispersion, meaning the audio doesn’t just project forward, but radiates evenly through the room. This is backed by the use of precisely placed drivers and passive radiators.
- The rubber base ring not only provides a stable footing (so the sphere does not roll around), but also helps damp vibrations and improves acoustic stability.
- It also fits beautifully into modern interiors—whether on a coffee table, shelf, or desk. With a choice of colours including Mars Rustic Orange, Neptune Midnight, Sunburst Yellow, Pluto Obsidian, Blue Terra, Mercury Silver.
Outstanding Sound for a Compact Form
The S1 Circle’s performance is what really sets it apart in the “round bluetooth speaker” market.
Driver & Output Specs
- Dual 2.5″ woofers plus dual 1″ tweeters, accompanied by two passive radiators.
- Output: 20 W + 20 W (i.e., twin channels) with a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) of 93 dB.
- Frequency response runs from ~45 Hz up to ~17 kHz—meaning you’re getting deep bass, well‑present mids and crisp highs.
- The “360° sound” design means regardless of where you place the speaker, you’ll still get uniform audio rather than the narrow “sweet spot” of a typical front‑facing speaker.
What It Means for You
That combination means you’ll hear songs, movies, podcasts and gaming audio with richness and clarity that belie the speaker’s compact size. The deeper bass (down to 45 Hz) ensures you don’t lose the impact of the music’s low end. The high SPL means it can fill a medium room and still retain clarity. The 360° design makes it great for gatherings—no one ends up behind the speaker with flatter sound.
Smart Connectivity & Feature Set
The S1 Circle is more than “just” good hardware—it’s built for modern usage patterns.
- Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity provides a stable, low‑latency link to your device.
- TWS (True Wireless Stereo) mode: You can pair two S1 Circles for left/right stereo separation—and in some versions, use “Matrix” mode to link even more units for a larger soundscape.
- Built‑in microphone for hands‑free calls—noise cancellation means you can take calls through the speaker with clarity.
- Customizable audio via the UB+ Seek app (iOS & Android)—including equalizer, device naming, firmware update, battery status.
- Input versatility: Even though wireless is the main path, you’ll find USB‑C charging and 3.5 mm input jack support for wired use.
Build Quality, Portability & Outdoor Readiness
- Size & Weight: Diameter approx. 138 mm; weight around 1 kg—compact yet solid.
- IPX5 water resistance – meaning it can handle splashes, light rain, or poolside use. Not fully waterproof for submersion, but well suited for outdoor life.
- The package includes a cowhide leather strap so you can carry it or hang it if desired.
- Charging via USB‑C, with efficient power handling (5‑12 V / 2A) and solid battery capacity (3 × 2,500 mAh packs) for extended playtime.
Battery & Usage Time
According to official specs:
- Charging time: approx. 5–8 hours depending on power source.
- Playback time: Up to 16 hours (some third‑party reviews mention up to ~20 hours under moderate volume) on a single charge.
- With that kind of runtime, you can trust the S1 Circle for day trips, outdoor use, or simply all‑evening indoor use without worrying about the battery dying midway.
Colour Options & Style Variants
As noted, one of the strengths of the round bluetooth speaker format is that it can be a fashion piece as much as an audio tool. The S1 Circle offers vibrant finishes:
- Mars Rustic Orange
- Neptune Midnight
- Sunburst Yellow
- Pluto Obsidian
- Blue Terra
- Mercury Silver
This allows the speaker to stand out or blend in, depending on your personal style or room décor.
Use Cases: Where the S1 Circle Shines
- Home living room: Use it as a stylish centre piece that gives you cinematic sound for movies and music without needing bulky speaker systems.
- Desktop / Work‑from‑home: Compact size means it fits on a desk, and the 360° sound means you don’t need to aim it at you—it fills the room.
- Outdoor gatherings / travel: With the strap, IPX5 rating, long battery life and wireless connectivity, it’s ready for the yard, pool deck, picnic or even camping.
- Parties / multiple rooms: Use two units in TWS mode for stereo, or link more via the app to fill larger areas.
- Calls & remote work: With microphone and noise‑cancellation, you can use it for hands‑free calls or conference calls without needing a separate speakerphone.
