And why not add a wireless charging function for smartphones to a portable speaker, thought the developers. Thus, the Harman Kardon Citation Oasis speaker was born. You can listen to quality music, plus, charge your phone. Overall, a unique system, it’s strange that Apple hadn’t thought of it earlier. The speaker plays music via Bluetooth from the phone and charges it simultaneously.

The weak point of this gadget is the power of the acoustic system. The manufacturer enclosed small speakers in a plastic case with a metal base. If the listener wants to get maximum quality at the output, it is better not to increase the volume of the Harman Kardon Citation Oasis above 50-60%. Otherwise, the case will immediately resonate with the speakers, causing distortions.
The speaker is designed not for audiophiles, but for trend followers. Stylish, beautiful, relatively inexpensive, from a well-known brand, the acoustic system will fit well into a living room or bedroom. Don’t expect more. You can buy the Harman Kardon Citation Oasis in gray and black. By the way, we recently reviewed JBL Charge 4, which plays much better and costs less, but has limited functionality.
