OKAY, so we journalists usually get nifty giveaways, but this one — the X-mini Capsule Speaker — stands out from the coffee mugs and USB thumb drives so it’s worth mentioning here.

It’s a portable “capsule” speaker (it actually looks a lot like a mosquito repellent device), which sets it apart from the generic, mostly two-speaker types. It connects via a two-prong cable, one for your USB port and another for your standard 3.5mm stereo jack.

Best of all, no need to plug it because the battery’s rechargeable via USB. So if it doesn’t have its own power, what about sound quality then? Not bad at all, I’d say it’s definitely better than those portable speakers you’ll find in P88 stores. The package did say “Hearing is believing.” I tried supporting that point with this video.
