Revainrating 4 out of 5

Confusing product description

Update July 2021 Purchased March 2021 Used 3 or 4 times with radio function. The speaker does not turn off in radio mode. I got a low battery warning so I plugged in the speaker while playing in radio mode. When the device was ready to turn off, it didn't turn off. I unplugged the cable and still couldn't turn off the power. I had to turn the volume all the way down and wait for the speaker to turn off after it hit the low power safety mark. I turned the speaker back on. The default pairing mode is Bluetooth. I managed to disable it in mode. Turned back on and switched to radio mode. Once again it didn't turn off. I went through this cycle a few more times, and each time the radio didn't turn off. ----------------------- If this is an S335, this description is different than the S335 on the manufacturer's website.- This one on the Revain looks like an update. It is listed as IPX7 while the manufacturer's website lists IPX5. I didn't submerge it in water to test it. This one on the Revain has a built in radio. In the fact that on the manufacturer's website the radio is not specified. Revain's description shows lamps that change color. I did not find this on the product or in the instructions that came with it. Colored border - hard plastic. I couldn't find any other lightbulb except for the power light.- I don't like the leather strap. Very 1980s-2020s technology. Too big/wide. Cannot be folded to avoid protruding sideways. It is annoying when the speaker is placed on a table, etc. Doesn't make it an elegant device. Also, repeated wet/dry cycles will cause it to smell and spoil over time. - Volume up and down buttons must be held down to change. It is not easy to control a small volume change. I prefer buttons that gradually adjust with one press. I like the sound and bass quality. It seems comparable to speakers with similar specs. 4 stars due to the hard-to-achieve combination of sound quality, IPX7 rating and the ability to use the device standalone for radio play - without having to use an additional device like a phone. also in the environment.

Pros
  • Portable Audio & Video
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
