Soulmate? No, Solemate, a portable Bluetooth speaker from Jabra with a quirky footwear-inspired design and some fairly decent specs.
The shoe theme extends to a removable rubber "sole" acting as a store for a 3.5mm audio cable and a "heel tab" for carrying purposes. The rubberised casing is shock- and water-resistant, while an included sound bag adds extra protection.
The audio specifications impress-- the front has a duo of acoustic tweeters and a subwoofer with a passive bass radiator on the back, a combination capable of producing up to 120dB of sound.
Connectivity comes through Bluetooth 3.0, as well as 3.5mm audio jack and microUSB.
According to Jabra battery life is around 8-10 hours of continuous play on a single charge.
