Review on Bluetooth 5.0 Speaker by Celtic Blu - 16W 100ft Wireless Range with Surround Sound - Includes FM Radio, Built-in Power Bank, MicroSD Card Slot, Bike Cage & Remote (Black) by Tony Watts

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I liked mine so much I bought it for my wife. But then!

. I use it for cycling and it keeps me company on the highway. Loud enough to drown out most street noise and very clear at low volume when being polite to neighbors. My young fiancee has used mine so many times for online concerts to play her accompaniment that I bought her one too. She was so excited. Also, I got another cage for another one of my bikes! [added later] Okay, the review is mixed now. The latest speaker added one feature and removed one, both of which detract from its usefulness to me. Firstly, it appears that a standby power down mode has been added. This is a problem for my wife because she often performs, then waits a little and sings again with accompaniment. When 10 minutes elapse, the speaker turns off, causing interference while she tries to figure it out. Second, about a year after my initial purchase, the FM mode was removed. I've only used it occasionally, but a loss might surprise previous buyers, as it did me. It took me some time to find out that it had been removed. The online manual for the Celtic Blu still lists FM mode as available, but the manual that came with the speaker doesn't. And to be honest, there is no Revain list here. So, careful reading will inform you, but be aware.
