Action sells the Fresh ’n Rebel Bluetooth speaker for 489 CZK. You might be surprised by how much it can do

After a soundbar for 749 crowns, the Action chain added another cheap audio device to its shelves. The Fresh ’n Rebel Bluetooth speaker costs 489 CZK and on paper offers more than one would expect for that price: a new Bluetooth version, all-day battery life, and Auracast technology support.

What the Fresh ’n Rebel Bluetooth speaker offers

The speaker has an unusually shaped standing body covered with a fabric grille. At the back, in the upper part, there is a recess that serves as a handle for carrying, and on the top edge, there are five buttons for pairing, volume, playback, and power. The USB-C port is hidden under a rubber cover, but Action does not specify water resistance in its specifications.

The chain promises up to 25 hours of battery life on a single charge, and the speaker pairs with a phone via Bluetooth 6.0. The range is 20 meters according to specifications. A headphone jack and analog input are missing, so you can only play music wirelessly. It charges via USB-C, and based on the “power via another product” statement, we assume that you most likely won’t find an adapter in the package. In terms of power, the speaker promises 30 W.

Action also highlights that the speaker contains at least 50% recycled material with Global Recycled Standard certification, which is independently verified throughout the entire supply chain.

Auracast connects more speakers

The support for Auracast technology is interesting. This is a new feature of the Bluetooth LE Audio standard, which allows one source to broadcast audio to a theoretically unlimited number of compatible devices simultaneously. In practice, according to the store, you can connect more speakers and fill an entire garden with one song.

Price 489 CZK and availability

The Fresh ’n Rebel Bluetooth speaker costs 489 CZK and can be found in Action brick-and-mortar stores in the multimedia aisle. The chain brings 150 new products to stores every week, and the assortment changes quickly, so availability may vary from store to store.
