LG Electronics has unveiled four new portable speakers under its Xboom brand, broadening its audio lineup ahead of the CES 2026 technology show with models designed for parties, outdoor activities and everyday listening.
The South Korean electronics maker said the new range, developed in collaboration with artist Will.i.am, includes the Xboom Stage 501, Xboom Blast, Xboom Mini and Xboom Rock. All four models feature AI-powered sound enhancements, with LG highlighting higher power output and extended battery life across the lineup as key selling points.

For outdoor use, LG positioned the Xboom Blast as a more rugged option, featuring reinforced bumpers, a rope-style carry handle and durability rated to military standards.
