  • This is the epitome of a niche product. The convenience of a stand and speaker baked into a single item is the main attraction here. So unless you're particularly enamoured with the design, if you don't watch much video on a tablet, don't bother. And even...

  • The Carbon Audio Zooka is a good-looking, colorful portable Bluetooth wireless speaker that can act as a stand for your iPad, but audio performance suffers if you pump up the volume....

  • Abstract:  I'm ever so slightly in love with this Bluetooth wireless speaker bar for iPad and – at a push, if you wedge it on top of the screen – MacBook Air. The Zooka, as it's called, might make your Air topple over if there's not a wall behind it but, as an iPad ...

  • Looks great, clever design, lots of useful features, convenient, decent speakerphone
  • Audio quality is average, reasonably expensive
  • The Zooka is a design triumph. It's well thought out, with a design that will suit pretty much every tablet and even phones and laptops too. The materials are high-quality and feel premium. The downside is that the sound is a little unimpressive. N...

  • The Zooka is the length of an iPad and weighs in at 400g: there are smaller, lighter travel speakers out there, and its sound quality leave something to be desired. But with its long battery life and sturdy, compact design, it's easy to see how this could...

  • Pleasingly robust; eight-hour battery life.
  • Fiddly to set up; tinny audio; on the pricey side.

  • Unique, durable design, Effective tablet stand
  • Weak, tinny audio performance, Expensive for performance level
  • We had reasonably high hopes for the Zooka. Carbon Audio has clearly crafted it with great attention to detail and its flexible design will no doubt win it a multitude of sales. Unfortunately this same love and attention has not been put into the performa...

  • Attractive colour options, Clever, versatile design, Compact and very portable
  • Distorts bass at higher volumes, Pricey for sub, par audio, Short Bluetooth range
  • Carbon Audio hasn't done itself any favours by pricing the Zooka at £80 - it may be just a fraction of what you'd pay for a quality pair of speakers but it's a bit much for a Bluetooth speaker whose performance isn't as thrilling as its design. Still, th...
