Great price: Bluedio portable speaker paired with Anleo hard case

I bought this Bluedio portable speaker three weeks ago for $19.97 and paid $10.99 for the Anleo hard case in the same order, which total almost the amount is 31 dollars revane prime. I'm very happy with this combination because I can listen to podcasts, audio books and music and still clearly hear what's going on around me while I'm driving. I listen without violating DMV laws or my company's policies regarding the use of headphones, wearing earphones, or touching a mobile device while driving company vehicles. If I wear it over a collared shirt so the plastic doesn't touch my skin, I forget it's there I mainly use it in Bluetooth mode with my iPhone. Bluedio's four multifunction buttons allow you to turn it on and off, adjust volume, pause and play audio, access modes (Bluetooth, FM radio and SD card) and tune the FM radio. Listening to the radio on the road is not very pleasant, since the antenna is bad and you get a lot of interference while driving. Tuning is fiddly, but it has a scan function and when it's on you can use the center two buttons to navigate to station selection. Haven't tried the SD card mode yet but am looking forward to saving a few things I'd like to hear repeated. The built-in microphone on Bluedio's right arm seems to work with Siri on my iPhone, but not as accurately as it does with my phone or AirPods. It just sucks compared to speech-to-text dictation, so when I'm texting or emailing, I just turn off Bluedio and use the iPhone's excellent built-in microphone. It's worth noting that Bluedio barely fits in Anleo's hard case. The zipper barely closes but closes with some force and keeps the Bluedio protected during transport. I'm really worried that the zipper won't last long because the size is a little different. Without directly comparing similar products, I believe that the inexpensive Bluedio portable speaker is likely to be heavier and have lower sound quality than the more expensive Revain-based units, some of which cost more. up to $300, but hey, that's part of the price. but closes with a little effort and offers Bluedio protection during transport.
