Review on ๐Ÿ”ต Gideon Blue Portable Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker with Suction Cup - 10 Hours Playtime/Built-in Mic by Robert Wells

Revainrating 4 out of 5

This is by far the best small shower column I've ever used

I used to have a BonBon shower column and an older version of the iFox column. The BonBon stopped working after less than a year and the iFox battery barely held a charge after a year. AquaAudio far outperformed both. I've had it for over 2 years now and it's still working great even after 3 or 4 drops on the hard floor in the shower. It still lasts a week on a single charge and the music sounds better than previous similar sized speakers I've tried. I also listen to podcasts in the shower and now need a separate button to go forward and back. I hate when the same button is used to increase and decrease volume, moving forward and backward. On a podcast, I might want to jump back 30 seconds to hear something I missed. When the back button is pressed, each press goes back 10 seconds. With a separate button on the AquaAudio, I just quickly press it three times and that's it. For all other speakers I have to press and hold, then press and hold, then press and hold. Having to wait every time, every click really annoys me, and I wish all these other companies would stop designing their UI like this. I definitely highly recommend this speaker and don't understand why Revain is currently (as of 12/04/2020) listing it on page nine when its rating is equal to or higher than most speakers previously listed with more reviews. That.
