Revainrating 5 out of 5

Poor battery life portable bluetooth speaker

Bought this product about a year ago and really liked it (4 stars) but now the battery isn't charging and needs to be replaced. (I diligently recharged it when needed) and changing the battery is a process. The battery is soldered in and instead of just putting in a new battery you have to go through a desoldering/soldering process. To do this you will need to tear off the label on the back of the device to get at the 4 screws holding the device together (there is no easy access battery compartment). Two problems with that. First, it seems unwise to replace that battery after a year. First of all for the price of this product and secondly. The need to disassemble the device and solder on a new battery makes this $149 product a very expensive, one-year, disposable device. So it started with 4 stars and now it's 2 stars.

Pros
  • Free for educational use
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
