5.0 out of 5 stars Big Sound, Easy Connection, Small Size
Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2024
I’ve had this speaker for about six weeks and have only positive thoughts. The sound can blast through my house or back yard, it holds a charge, as since the first charge, I have only hooked it up one time. It announces how much charge is remaining and what it is connected to when you power it up. It connects quickly. I really enjoy the Blue Stone color. I have used it all over the house including at the end of the shower (not in the water as it is NOT waterproof). The size makes it easy to put in a bag to carry and it feels like it is well made (not fragile). I am considering buying another one because apparently you can connect them together within range!

I bought it for $99 during Prime Days, but even at regular price $130 I think, it is a great deal. If I have any issues in the future, I will update this, but so far SOOOO GOOD!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best small portable speaker that I know of
Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2024
I'm an audiophile, and I love speakers. And I am in love with this little speaker. It puts out huge sound with fantastic base. It charges fast and holds its charge quite a bit longer than I ever expect. It's great outside and even better inside. Its well build and very solid. It puts out a mono-signal (instead of stereo), but you would never know it; it sounds SO good.

My one gripe is that it doesn't have a 3.5mm line-in port - which is a significant complaint for me - but this little speaker is so outstanding in every other way that it gets the full 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Loud and Bass boosted :)
Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2024
I got this as a gift for my fiancé, not expecting too much of it, as his previous speakers had lasted a while, but had went down in sound and life quality, and thought this would be a decent upgrade and change for him. It was at least twice as better as I had anticipated. The sound is crisp, loud and clear, the bass is an added definite bonus. Only takes about 25 minutes to fully charge and can last well over 7-8+ hours in between uses. It’s fairly easy to navigate and connect your phone to. Definitely worth the investment if you enjoy and frequent use your speaker, as there is an additional loop strap for a carabiner or any other type of clip on holder. 9.8/10! Works amazing!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply great.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my entire ownership of this speaker.

Time of writing this review is roughly 8 months after purchase, having used this speaker practically every single day since. This was a replacement for a very well-loved but somewhat lacking B&O (P3?) oval-shaped speaker that inspired of few of my must-have features.

My key requirements in purchasing a speaker at this price point were:
- Punchy, solid bass, with high accuracy, clear playback throughout most of the volume range
- Relatively attractive, understated, simple design with ergonomic and intuitive controls
- Easily oriented for high quality playback in a variety of different situations (facing sideways, upwards, at angles)
- Long-lasting battery without any obnoxious constant playback interruptions informing you of battery life remaining

This speaker delivers on all of these.

The bass is incredibly clear, with no horrible warbling and distortion that’s very common with dozens of other similar speakers. The audio playback is very crisp and clear, with no noticeable quality losses. I’m sure it’s not perfect, but it’s more than adequate for 95%+ of people. Even at low volumes, the quality is still extremely high. There is a usable, enjoyable sound at every volume level.

The design is simple, but handsome. It does not look obnoxious or out of place anywhere. It is just the right size, not too large to pop into a bag, and not too small as to have low-power drivers with poor sound. Very easy to transport. The squared design makes it very stable on most surfaces, but is still rounded enough not to get caught on things. The controls are very easy to understand, even the multi-device Bluetooth cycling and syncing. I have no complaints.

The speaker works well for playback in nearly any position, especially when placed on a table or other nice playback surface. It can be placed facing upward, and the speaker enhances playback for all-around sound. When placed horizontally, the same happens for directional playback. Very impressive stability in a wide variety of situations. Some would consider the lack of a lanyard or string to be a downside for this point, but there is massive benefits to keeping this speaker on a surface.

The battery life is incredible. Vastly longer than I had really expected for this speaker. With my personal usage (middle volume range, 2-3 uses a day for 30 to 60 minutes at a time), I usually recharge every 1-2 weeks. Not sure what exactly that equates to in real playback time, but I still find it impressive. The speaker will notify you at 20% and 10% battery level, which is exactly what I wanted. Many other speakers will interrupt playback at 75%, 50%, etc. I’ve not experienced any noticeable battery decay during my ownership, but I have only fully depleted and nearly fully recharged the entire time, with no “filling up” in between.

Downsides do exist, but most are inconsequential for me.
- The audible indicators that inform you of which device you are connected to can sometimes feel a bit sluggish, especially with long device names.
- I feel the price point is still a bit on the high side for the value, but I feel I’ve more than gotten my money’s worth. I just like a good deal.
- Volume occasionally spikes very high in certain scenarios when switching between devices, but is fairly easily turned down after a quick scare.

I would highly recommend this speaker to anyone in the market for a speaker at this price point. This is an especially good deal on sale. If you’re still reading at this point, just get the damn thing on the way.
