I highly recommend immediately buying a charging base for it (especially made in china). Otherwise, it is not convenient to constantly open and close the rubber plug. Different pros: For a wireless speaker - the sound is very good, without bass overbalance. Pretty loud. Sound 360 degrees around - convenient to place in the center of the room. Washes (and floats) in water. Its cons: As a column as a whole, it is still far from being as ideal as it is described. At high volume (conditionally more than 60-70% and especially 100%), overload is clearly audible. Not wheezing, of course, but the sound is clearly falling apart. The charging status is shown by one small weak LED, which is also not convenient.
