So first let's say this speaker is pretty good. Firstly, when you open the box you can see that it is well packaged, but it seems quite massive, it seems too plastic, but even then it doesn't bend. My point is that there is some kind of chemical smell when you first open it (maybe there isn't enough off-gas time before final packaging), but after a few days the smell is almost completely gone. I love the fact that it's USB-C so now I don't need two different chargers. In terms of sound quality it's top notch, it's nice and clear with a slight crackle when I really squeezed it and it was sitting right in my lap so I guess it would be invisible from any distance. Bass is crisp and clear, it has potential but feels like it lacks that power, but if you have an EQ this speaker can really hit. Overall it's loud, clean and heavy, I only gave it one star for the smell and feel of the plastic. Perhaps adding some rubber, like some corner bumpers, improves it a bit and gives it the stiffness that it barely lags behind. (And) I strongly encourage them to develop an app so you can get the best out of the speaker, or design it to work with other apps like Samsung's flexible equalizer.
