Built Quality

For the price, the overall construction is plastic and it’s not a bad quality. There are no sharp edges, ruff panels, or panel squeaking. We were not expecting such good built quality under 500 Rs. This is quite impressive.

The buttons are clicky even after 1 year of use, they are working fine. Moreover, the on-off leaver doesn’t feel fragile. During use, the speaker has taken a few falls and it’s still fine.

So, the Zebronics Zeb County is durable and can take beating too!

Therefore, Zebronics ZEB County 3W gets 8.5/10.

Look & Feel

The look is quite subjective but it can have a direct impact on the buying decision. So let me break it up. If you are fond of the old-school cassette player look, then you will like this one. It has that retro design to it.

People from the 80s and 90s will get that! This design is timeless. Unlike cassette players with speakers on the sides, this has one Mono speaker in the center. So yes, it carries that nostalgia.

This design is practical thanks to the briefcase-like handle. You can carry it around with ease without blocking the audio output.

So, we would give Zebronics ZEB County 3W 9/10 for looks.

Features

zebronics zeb county 3w review battery — Zebronics ZEB County 3w review battery

All the features available in a 1000 Rs Bluetooth-powered speaker are present on Zeb County at just 600 Rs! The features list made me buy this speaker! What is so special about Zebronics Zeb County 3W Bluetooth speaker? Let’s check.

The main highlight is portability. It’s certainly not the smallest but can be taken in your backpack and has a “take-anywhere” nature! The speaker is only 280 Grams so carrying along is not a problem.

Thanks to the retro design you have a suitcase-like holder which helps if you plan to take it out for a walk. So if you need a small solution for your immediate music need like a bathroom speaker or a tiny portable solution then this is something to consider.

Another thing where Zebronics did great is in terms of color choices. In total, there are 10 options to choose from. I’ve not seen any Bluetooth speaker that comes in so many color options like this.

You get Bluetooth 5.0, Aux-In mode, FM, Memory card support, and a USB drive. All these connections are present in our recently tested bass tube from pTron Fusion Ev o V2 (review) which costs double the price!

The Aux mode is quite different on this one. The cable supplied has one end as USB 2.0 and the other has a regular 3.5mm jack. So you will need to insert the 3.5mm jack in the music source and the USB in the speaker. So don’t worry if you don’t find an Aux port on the Zebronics Zeb County 3W Bluetooth speaker!

With all the features and connectivity, Zebronics has a big battery of up to 10 hours. This is great as it’s not a very compact speaker putting in a big battery was a wise decision. How good or bad is the battery backup? Here’s the battery section.

Zebronics Zeb County 3W Features: 9/10

Audio Quality

This Bluetooth speaker has a 3-watt output power and a 57mm audio driver on a single speaker at the front. So how does it sound? is it loud enough? After spending a year here are my thoughts about the Zebronics Zeb 3W County audio quality.

The Bluetooth speaker is quite loud and can easily suffice audio needs in a room at 12×12 dimensions. For that, you don’t have to be at full volume. If your area is small or if it is a closed room, the output will be even better. So for loudness, it’s quite good.

Since it’s a single speaker that produces everything i.e. vocals, treble, instruments bass, etc. Zebronics has tuned it in a way where vocals & instruments are given more importance than the bass. Bass is there, but certainly not a punchy one.

The overall audio quality is clean and vocal-centric. At full volume though, you will find some audio distortion.

This sound signature is good for enjoying, music, religious hymns, podcasts, TV serials, music videos, movies, and stand-up comedies.

Or you can consider it like an extension to your regular smartphone speakers. Certainly will help you have a better meeting experience. So Zebronics took all the essentials and dropped them into this tiny speaker.

Zebronics ZEB County 3W Audio Quality: 8/10

Zebronics ZEB County 3W Review – Battery Backup

We’ve used many headphones, speakers, soundbars, and even UPS from Zebronics, and what they claim about the battery is quite similar to the real-world figures.

For context, the brand claims about 10 hours of battery backup on this portable Bluetooth speaker. If you like to play songs at full volume then 6 to 7 hours will be achieved.

At a volume near 80 to 90%, it can last for about 8.5 hours. To claim the 10-hour claim, stay around 60% volume. The battery backup is quite good.

What about the charging? Does Zebronics ZEB County 3W support fast charging? Well, charging is not the strong suit of this Bluetooth speaker. Since it doesn’t support fast charging or charge with a charger above 5 Watt changes.

Even then, the charging time is around 2 to 2.5 hours depending upon the charger.

in 2024, Zebronics should upgrade it with a USB-C interface and support fast charging. So in terms of battery backup, Zebronics did a good job and up to 10 hours of battery backup is great!

Should You Buy Zebronics Zeb 3W Wireless Bluetooth Speaker?

Yes, the overall package for 500 Rupees, is not bad! You get good built quality, comfortable portability, a small but very “loud” speaker, retro design, amazing color options, good battery backup, and many connectivity options like FM, Aux, Bluetooth, Memory card reader, and more.

The most important thing; the audio quality is crystal clear and the vocals are very fine-tuned. This makes it suitable for playing bhajans and Gurbani throughout the day.

We had no issues listing music from the memory card. It can support up to 32 GB. FM works fine if you have good network reception at home. It’s certainly better than the other as the aux cable provided becomes an antenna.

So in terms of practicality, I don’t have any major reasons to reject it.

What’s not good? It’s the lack of fast charging and Micro USB for charging.

You can consider these Bluetooth options under the 1000 Rs that we’ve tested.
