…Its First Portable Speaker with Bose Tuning

Motorola is stepping into the portable speaker space with the launch of the moto sound flow, revealed at CES 2026. This is Motorola’s first standalone portable speaker, aimed at users who want solid sound performance along with smart features that work smoothly with their phones.

The moto sound flow is tuned with Sound by Bose and pushes 30W of output. Inside, it uses a dedicated woofer and tweeter, supported by dual passive radiators. The result is clean vocals, defined highs, and bass that holds up even when the volume is pushed. This is not positioned as a party-only speaker but as something that works just as well for everyday listening at home.

Battery life is handled by a 6000mAh battery; which Motorola says is built for long listening sessions without frequent charging. The speaker also carries an IP67 rating, making it resistant to dust and water. That makes it practical for outdoor use, travel, or placing near water without worry. Design is another focus area, with a twill-textured fabric finish and two Pantone-curated colors: PANTONE Carbon and PANTONE Warm Taupe.

What sets the moto sound flow apart is its use of ultra-wideband technology. When a compatible phone comes close, the speaker can automatically switch ongoing music or calls without manual pairing. If two speakers are used together, the Dynamic Stereo feature adjusts left and right channels based on where the phone is positioned, keeping the stereo image intact. The companion moto sound flow app adds more smart features. Quick Switch allows gesture-based audio transfer from phones or moto buds. RoomShift moves audio to the nearest speaker as users walk between rooms with a UWB-enabled phone. The app works on both Android and iOS.

Connectivity options include Wi-Fi for home streaming and Bluetooth 5 for wireless use on the go. Pricing starts at €199, with availability planned across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America, and Asia-Pacific regions in the coming weeks.
