Stopped working after less than a month

I received this speaker for Christmas. I only used it a few times and it stopped working. It showed full battery power, but I could not get it to turn on again. I tried charging it again just in case the indicator lights were malfunctioning, but it still would not work.

Pros
  • 15.7 ounces
Cons
  • Not easy to transport during outdoor activities

Great speaker, very loud!

I bought this for my husband that works construction, he loves it, and with working construction he is able to turn the volume up loud enough to hear over other noise.

Pros
  • Long battery life that can last up to 12 hours of playtime, so you won't have to worry about running out of power
Cons
  • No audio input option for non-Bluetooth devices

Mostly good, one fatal flaw

ProsGood battery lifeLoud speakerLots of connectivity optionsSmall form factorConsEvery time you turn it on, at max volume it screams "BLUETOOTH MODE" and then when anything connects to it, again at max volume "CONNECTED". also, if you drop a connection, " DISCONNECTED".it's like some engeneer asked, what one thing can we do to make people hate this product; I got it, let's make it scare the s*** out of the owners every time they turn it on, that'll be great. I mean there's no secret when you…

Pros
  • The speaker is just the right volume can even use while in the shower with no worries. I love it
Cons
  • Low maximum volume

and also raising the question about why it needs to loudly announce it's power state like a "BLUETOOTH

I thought I could get over the hilariously loud announcements this speaker screams at you. It's not loud, it screams. "BLUETOOTH!" When you turn it on. Then "CONNECTED!" when your phone pairs.Then I tried using the speaker. Reception is abysmal. If I put my phone in my pocket I start getting interference. Same phone paired to a different speaker and I can leave the room before audio quality begins to drop.Recently it begins restarting itself. Music will be playing no problem…

Pros
  • The powerful speaker delivers clear and crisp sound, perfect for both music and calls
Cons
  • Not waterproof, only water-resistant

It sounds great best in my review

I use it for teaching, in big classrooms sounds excellent, love that it works as a charger too, set it up right away That's my feedback.

Pros
  • Affordable price point, making it an excellent value for its features and durability
Cons
  • Unsatisfactory customer support

my Ematic ESR102 Is Great!

I purchased the ESR102 with hesitation, but was pleasantly surprised. It works wonderfully.One of the drawbacks everyone complained of was the loud voice at power up? Mine does not.maybe I got a revised edition; don't care I'm happy with it& that says a lot 'cause I return a lot more than I buy & I will probably purchase another one for another family member.

Pros
  • Water-resistant and ideal for outdoor activities, such as hiking, camping, and biking
Cons
  • Annoying notifications during operation

Great Speaker. good for me

My Daughter bought this Ruggedlife ESR 102 speaker charger & I just now paired it up with my laptop as I had to get a Bluetooth adapter because my laptop did not have Bluetooth installed. I just want to say I give it 5 stars it works great.

Pros
  • It was a gift for my grandma and she loves it sounds great plays loud and everything thanks for ematic
Cons
  • Unreliable durability

Two thumbs up: my feedback

It is definitely loud and the fact that it is also a portable charger and waterproof makes it all the better. An auxcord also come in the box therefor if you don't want to use Bluetooth it can easily be connected. It's a great device and I am happy with my purchase.

Pros
  • 1 Lithium Ion batteries required. (included)
Cons
  • Awkward button placement
