Review on ๐Ÿ”Š Vintage Surround Sound Bluetooth Speaker by HotNCold - Wireless Boombox for iPad, iPhone, Samsung, Nexus, & More Music Players - Outdoor Performance by Sara Gurule

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ordering a second one with mixed feelings

This is a stylish little Bluetooth speaker with FM radio and a micro SD slot for use as an MP3 player. It also comes with a remote control. The sound is good for such a small speaker. It looks good, but has at least one major flaw. Less than a year later, the micro-USB connector started to wobble a bit. This is of course the connector used to charge the battery, so there is no escaping its use. I put the speaker/player aside and planned to fix it. I was going to use some UV epoxy to reinforce the connector but the micro USB connector fell off the board. I could try resoldering it but I'm afraid I might loosen one of the adjacent elements on the board. Right now after realizing these units are back in stock and now for only $10, I'm ordering a replacement. I don't know/remember if there was a warranty and I can't find the manufacturer's website. When my new speaker arrives I will open it up and epoxy seal the areas around the micro USB and USB ports. Maybe an on/off slider too. I liked it so much that I bought another one. But I have concerns about durability.

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Vulgarity
