Review on 🔊 Volkano 12W Portable Bluetooth Speaker with FM Radio, SD Card Reader, Extended 4-Hour Battery Life, Powerful 3-Inch Driver, True Wireless, Internal Control, Handle [Black] Mamba Series by Kelly Frerking

First of all I feel a bit misled by the claims "HIGH QUALITY CRYSTAL CLEAR STEREO SOUND" and "Small but extremely powerful 12 watt drivers (plural) produce stereo quality sound with heavy bass" in the description, then I set it up and find that there is only one speaker, pointing towards the end of the tube opposite the keys. One speaker ≠ stereo. The sound was clear, but the bass sounded muddy, which is how it should be when you only have one speaker trying to do everything. "Angel, why do you say there is only one speaker? Do you get it?'" No. What I did was turn on the music and put my ear to each part of the unit and found that the sound was only coming from the very obvious single speaker pointing to the side. Anything else? If so that would be another cause for disappointment. But if they did, I'm sure I'd hear some noise coming from the other side of the pipe, which I didn't. Or maybe one of the speakers was DOA, but if you do looking through the grille from the other side there is no speaker there, just like the main speaker facing the other way, I also didn't like that the volume buttons are the same as the skip button track to turn them on (and you if you want to turn it on because it's not that loud), you'll have to hold down the Skip button. Not exactly ideal or efficient use of the enormous amount of wasted space on the speaker. Did I mention it's a huge space saver is a waste? A speaker at one end, small buttons and inputs at the other, and a massive amount of nothing in between. For what you get this is a very large size; maybe to make you feel like you got your money's worth." "Angel, you said it's actually not that loud, what do you mean?" It's loud enough if you're just alone in a small bis want to jam in a medium-sized room. But if you were taking it to the beach or park with friends, I think they'd be a bit disappointed if you were the only person with the speaker. "It is not bad. It feels very strong, very NOT brittle, like it could take a little beating.
