Since the inception of smart speakers, users have been waiting for more features to debut on them. Google Home being the first popular one, users have always portability on the device. At the IFA 2017, we witnessed the first portable smart speaker with Google Assistant – Mobvoi TicHome Mini. However, it looks like the accessory maker – Ninety7 has been hearing the woes of Google Home users and it launched a snap-on battery ‘LOFT’ that make Google Home portable.

Attachable batteries are not new for smart speakers though; Amazon Echo Dot has got the same product ‘Vaux’ earlier this year from Ninety7. For Google Home too, Ninety7 is is the first supplier for attachable battery base. For those wondering how LOFT attaches to the Google Home, it attaches to the magnetic base system on the smart speaker. It adds a battery to the speaker setup with 4 LEDs to display battery levels. It can offer up to 8 hours of usage on a single charge.
