It’s been like two weeks since we got the Ovevo fantasy pro-Z1 Bluetooth led speaker and the experience so far has been really cool.
Earlier before now, we did an unboxing of the gadget. If you missed the unboxing post which includes images, you can access it here.
Having used the gadget for about two weeks, I’d like to give my full review here and as always, I would pour out my observations here without being biased.
Key Features
- Beautiful design
- Inbuilt lamp with 16 million colors
- Lamplight density is adjustable

Design
Compared to other Bluetooth devices I have seen before, the Ovevo fantasy pro-Z1 speaker has got a really nice design. It isn’t just a speaker, it’s got a lighting system around its body which can be used for not just lighting purposes alone but as a lamp as well.
As earlier stated when we unboxed the device, it has got three layers; The upper, middle, and the button.
The upper part consists of the function buttons as well as notification light placement. The middle layer is basically the compartment for the lighting system as well as the speaker.
The bottom layer is basically where the capacitive touch panel is placed. The capacitive touch panel allows you to switch between Colors just by tapping on it. For more information in regards to the design, you should check out the unboxing post.
Connectivity and Sound Output
The device just like every other related device connects via Bluetooth. Since there is no SD-Card slot on the device, a third-party device is needed before music can be played through the Ovevo fantasy pro-Z1 speaker. You can also choose to connect using the 3.5mm in to in cable if the device you intend connecting to does not have Bluetooth connectivity.
In regards to the sound output, in all honesty, I am impressed with it. Considering the sound output as well as the lightning, the Ovevo fantasy pro-Z1 can turn your room into a mini nightclub.
I did a video that talked about the lighting functionality on the speaker device as well as the sound output. The video shows how the lightning works as well as the sound output. You can watch it below:
Battery
The Ovevo fantasy pro-Z1 was able to last about 6 hours under intensive sound use. Leaving the device on standby can last up to 10 hours.Â
Charging the device to its fullest takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes which is really nice. When connected to a smartphone (iOS or Android), the battery meter of the Ovevo Speakers shows on the phone’s screen. From there, you could monitor how the battery is used.
Performance
Using the device since day one has been fun. I personally love the gadget and everyone who’s got to see the device with me has always said good of it.
Although at a point, the device hung, and at first, I was sorta confused about how to fix it. Pressing and holding the function keys on the device fixed it and it has never happened again since then.
Final Words
If you ask me if I recommend the Ovevo Fantasy Pro Z1 Bluetooth speaker, in all sincerity, I’d say YES! However, I wish there was SD card support. Not everyone loves to play songs when they are busy doing other things on their phone. Most people tend to use such devices more when they are bored or just need something louder than the default speaker and having to use a phone or MP3 device every time may seem a little discouraging. That’s like consuming battery on two devices when only one would have been better.
If SD card usage isn’t a concern to you, I would recommend the Ovevo Fantasy pro-Bluetooth speaker over the other few I know.
