Review on INSMY Retro Bluetooth Speaker: 20W Portable Wood Home Audio Super Bass Stereo - Bluetooth 5.0 24H Playtime - TF Card/Aux Support - Wireless Bookshelf Speaker for Party (Black&Bamboo) by Maurice Harvey

Good sound great looks at a great price

I can say that since I've had this speaker I can't find anything in it I don't like. It has great sound even at high volumes and decent bass in such a small package. I have several bluetooth speakers including the JBL Flip which was the best speaker I had until I bought this one. The bass from this speaker sounds a lot fuller than the JBL, which surprised me. The JBL's highs are a little more defined, but lack bass to round out the sound. This speaker adds the bass I was missing and I'm very happy with its performance, especially at the $50 price point. My JBL speaker costs over twice as much as the INSMY and just has a fuller sound. Other than that, this speaker looks great. All the others I looked at had the typical speaker look, this one is different. It looks so classy and is a solid piece of hardware that you feel as soon as you pick it up as it's not lightweight which I like. As far as battery life goes, it's been excellent so far too. I've only had to charge it once since receiving it at the facility from the first charge over a week ago, and that's for a few hours of use each day. I love that I can use the extra cable that comes with the speaker if I have a device that's already connected to something else via Bluetooth and I still want to connect to the speaker. I also tested the distance I could move the speaker away from the Bluetooth source and I couldn't get far enough in my house to turn it off anywhere, which was also impressive. I will say if I could add one thing to improve it I would like to see some rubberized feet on the bottom because when I sat on a smooth table quite loudly it was so strong that it moved a bit and I was afraid it would fall off over time, but when it happened it was very loud to me, so it doesn't happen at normal listening levels. Overall this speaker looks and works very well for its price and I'm definitely happy with it so far.
