First-class sound, but the operation is poor
The Riva Turbo X is currently one of the best sounding compact Bluetooth speakers.
The sound is really on a very high level. No bloated, exaggerated bass, good treble and no squeezed mids.
I've listened to a few other Bluetooth speakers in my area and before that I had the Bose Soundlink Mini.
The Riva Turbo X beats the Bose by worlds.
What is not well solved, however, is the operation! I have no idea what the developers were thinking here.
Operations such as switching on and off, full battery, switching on the Turbo, etc. are confirmed with either voice announcements or beeps.
These signals are incredibly loud and the volume cannot be adjusted (they are also not linked to the set playback volume).
Want to listen to some quiet music at night - WOOOM! Super loud switch-on sound.
DIIING! DIIING! - Bluetooth pairing.
And when you switch it off again - WOOOM!
All nice and awake?
There are also sometimes problems with the AUX connection (jack plug).
The Riva does not have a hardware button to select the AUX input, but should recognise itself when there is a signal on the AUX.
This sometimes does not work satisfactorily. Had to disconnect the Bluetooth connections of the phones paired with the Riva a few times before the signal was detected on the AUX.
However, with the Bluetooth disconnected, the remote control via mobile phone no longer works.
In the meantime, it works reasonably well with AUX and a single mobile phone connected via Bluetooth for the remote control.
The Riva should urgently receive a firmware update that fixes the described deficiencies!Pro
- First-class sound, musically at a very high level
- Good workmanship
Contra
- The operation is poor and should be urgently improved with a firmware update.
In total
The ensemble good running perfection is still missing.
Pro
- Yes
Contra
- No
Great!
Operation is okay, sound is top!

Riva Turbo X are recommendable because the price performance is unbeatable they come Locke with devices from the double price segment (250fr.) at
I paid 115 chf.
The Riva Turbo x convince in all respects, battery performance, charging speed, also serves as a power bank, haptic, the sound is inherently good I use the app equalizer FX so I get the maximum sound quality out the app equalizer FX you can still increase the maximum volume.I wouldn't overdo it, though, because the speakers reach 100dB and distort the sound. you can also boost the bass with the app, but the bass is already pretty powerful out of the box, so it's worth boosting the bass a bit in the car.Pro
- Relatively compact for the performance
- Price-performance
- Battery power
- Powerful bass up to 60Hz
- Powerbank function
- Touch sensor
Contra
- Mini USB is only for updates
- The Riva Turbo X app has no equalizer
- You have to put up with the weight of 1.4 kg
- Batteries are not replaceable
Very happy with this!
Sounds really good, fills the room and the bass is strong, especially at higher volumes.
A really good Bluetooth speaker

Recommended for a small room, I use it for my massage studio.
Truly amazing products, for the price the strength and quality of sound, there is not much to compete with them.
Pro
- very good sound for the size of the product
Contra
- the battery button looks fragile
The price-performance ratio is still great, despite small drawbacks.
Sound great, stability of Bluetooth connection so-so. If you just put the device down, everything is fine, but if you change tracks several times in a row, it regularly knocks out the Bluetooth connection.
Pro
- Sound
- Optics & Haptics
- Battery life
Contra
- Bluetooth stability

Good speaker, but would not recommend it to people who like top sound quality. Price/performance ratio is right.
Visually very beautiful speaker, which reproduces a clear sound even at high volumes. Unfortunately, the bass performance is very poor for the size - the Bose Mini SoundLink and the JBL Charge 3 beat the Riva Turbo X by far in terms of frequency distribution (treble/bass ratio).
The battery life of 26 hours (according to the manufacturer's website) is based on experience rather around 15-16 hours. A sound pressure level of 100dB can perhaps be measured inside the speaker, but I would estimate the level in front of the speaker to be more like 85dB (this speaker is definitely not as loud as a club in Switzerland).
I have not yet been able to correctly attach the silicone cover on the bottom to the back, as it cannot be pushed in completely.
I could not understand the rating with the content "super loud switch-on and switch-off tones" - this software deficiency has been fixed with very likely in the meantime.
For my taste, the capacitive control buttons don't work well enough - I like real hardware buttons better.Pro
- Sound quality in the high and mid-frequency ranges
- Price/ Performance
Contra
- weak bass performance

top !
The speaker has a proud price, the music it plays as a Bluetooth LS is brilliant, clear with deep bass, especially in turbo mode (almost too much for the kitchen).
in turbo mode (almost too much for the kitchen). I can recommend this product and would buy it again immediately, installation is very easy!Pro
- size, bass and sound, easy installation...
Contra
- nothing, maybe the price
