Harman Kardon Allure : Hands On Review

After getting the best response from the Amazon Alexa in Echo series, Amazon has handed over the reins to its voice-controlled helper to third parties now. The new Harman Kardon Allure has been launched in the market now.

Now let us see the feature of this Harman Kardon Allure...



Design

This Harman Kardon Aluure has an eye-catching design, which looks good when the music is played. The bottom half of the speaker is made of metallic in shape, so as to get the best sound from the speaker. The upper half has a transparent plastic case so you can see the magic of LED lights when the music is been played.


The Allure is heave at 2.6kg, but that is not really an issue because you cannot carry such a speaker every time which is sensitive at the top. There is also a sensitive touch for volume control and also Alexa assistant button at the top center. There is also a mute the microphone button at the bottom of the speaker.



Performance

The volume of Allure is been controlled by the three range speakers, 1.5-inch drivers firing outwards, along with a 3.5-inch subwoofer that fires downwards. The subwoofer in the Allure fires directly at the surface below, which pushes it outwards, and that is why bass sounds so good.


The Allure has a rated frequency of 40Hz to 20,000Hz and uses the Bluetooth 4.2 versions. It also has a WiFi for connecting Alexa to the internet. Setting up this Speaker is not easy, you have to connect to the HK Alexa app, which will directly be connected to your speaker. After using for some time I realized that the sound quality of this Speaker is much better than other smart-speakers like Google Home, Amazon Echo Plus, etc.



Verdict

Harman Kardon has certainly chosen an apt name for its speaker. The overall design with the transparent top and soft pulsating lights makes it very alluring indeed. Build quality is superb, and it would look just as good on a desk as in your bedroom. The battery backup of the speaker can last up to 6hrs of playing at 70% of volume. But sometimes touch sensitivity of the speaker makes a problem in that and sometimes Alexa can not able to listen because of interruption.
