Can anyone comment on the bluetooth range (distance) of this speaker? For instance if I have my phone in my pocket, how far away can I move?

With an iPhone 5s I cam leave the Fidelio in my upstairs office and carry the phone to the first floor, porch or cellar and it works fine the whole time.

I say about 20 to 30 feet before you notice signal lose. If the person with the phone the pocket goes to the bathroom, parties over

Good question, I keep my phone in my right pocket when I hike and it has never dropped the signal. I just played around a little in my house and was able to walk at least 50ft away as long as I had a clear path between the phone and headset. Of course when you get obstacles, like floors or walls in the way it drops a lot faster but I was still able to get 20 ft away.

Best I've ever gotten was about 150 feet in open space but that's still better range than most speakers. Motorola has years of experience making radios so it's no surprise that their speaker has such a long range. They're not telling how but in that department they really know what they're doing.

I put this in my kitchen. Sound quality is pretty damn good. Haven't tested the distance. I'd say I've been about 30ft away and played music from my phone, using YouTube, no problem

I had this sound bar, and the blue tooth only worked, if I laid my phone directly on top of the bar. If I got the phone more than 3 feet away, it wouldn't work, and my laptop that was located with in a couple feet wouldn't pair.

Yes, I find when I'm walking with my phone in my hip pocket (either left or right pocket), the sound does cut out intermittently, especially when I turn my head. I don't experience this as much when my phone is in my hand. I don't experience any sound disruption at all when my phone is lying on my desk, even many feet away.

I use bluetook in on my galaxy nexus phone and have no problems with the connection to my car or the dock. Does your Bluetooth function with other devices? I just don't take my phone to another room when paired with the speaker. I have taken it as far as 15 feet and had no issues.

You can take it outside but typical Bluetooth range is about 25 to 30 feet so it is a very good chance you will experience loss of signal beyond 30 feet. I take my speaker outside and in the garage a lot but keep my audio source within 5-10 feet of my speaker.

I would say it works up to 30 feet but, not 300 feet. Is it supposed to work up to 300 feet out? I didn't know any bluetooth would work that far out. This is an excellent bluetooth though. Never have issues with battery life or connectivity.

This awesome speaker sound is great and loud. It is for one spot not real movable. Can be moved just bulky to move, so I keep mine in the back of the house because we have no type of entertainment back there, I listen to my books and music on my phone back there or on my kindle fire. Any phone or device that has blue tooth will pair with it. I love it. Which my kindle fire had blue tooth app I bought it before they had them. Good luck God Bless in Jesus Name Yvonne

I bought one seven months ago...bluetooth range is about 12 feet line of sight... very good sound for such a small speaker.

In my home, I have walked as far away as 25-30 ft. and still retained the signal and call on my FINITI Bluetooth. One may hear a brief "crackling" sound if solid walls separate the FINITI from the phone, but still retain the call signal.

I would say about 30 feet. It really depends though on walls, open space, etc. I saw the other comment to this question about it being uncomfortable - I purchased 4 different Bluetooth (and returned them) before finding this one comfortable.

The manual says 10 feet...but we've had our cell phone further than that. Generally Bluetooth range is 30'. Just leave your cell phone within range of the base unit. The base has lights indicating whether BT is connected - yellow for not, green for connected. Keep an eye on those lights, today the base light was yellow with the cell in range - somehow the BT was turned off on the Cell. Turned it on and the phones reconnected.

With my iPhone 5 - not at all. With the earpiece on my right ear I lose connection if I have the phone in my left pocket. So I suppose the answer is 2 ft.

I just tried it in our large storeroom which is about 25 ft wide with several shelves and obstacles in the way and it worked perfectly. I think the average for any bluetooth speaker is around 30 ft. and I think this one will probably go a little further than that. If you had straight line of site with no obstacles, then range could almost double (again, line of site). I love mine! It's a great little speaker with bass you wouldn't think you'd find in a small speaker. Beats Audio sounds great with it!
