Great while it lasts

It was a good speaker for a while. Customer service was great when the battery would not charge and all that was needed was a battery replacement to resolve the issue. Very easy replacement process. The kicker was that Bluetooth wouldn't turn on after three months of inactivity. There are no issues with pairing, it just won't turn on. The radio still works and I could probably use an AUX cable if I could find mine. But this isn't a Bluetooth speaker anymore, so it's useless to me.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Requires an outlet

ION > Miscellaneous Speakers

I used to have an old Ion speaker and the sound was good, but when used outdoors or at parties it was muffled at high volumes. I also liked using it when traveling because of the radio function, so I saw this online and had to try it. First is its portability, excellent battery life and small size, but the sound is outrageous even at high volumes. My friend has another larger Ion speaker and mine works just as well but at a lower price that doesn't compromise on quality. The Ion is probably one

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Small parts

Blu Tooth didn't connect on second use

What a bummer. Bought because of the good compact size. It's easy to set up and use on the first night. Connects easily with Bluetooth. 2nd evening.nothing. It would connect. I finally figured out if I pressed the "Blu-Tooth" rubber button marked "No". 3 According to the instructions, I had a sound when I pressed it, but as soon as I let go it was gone. I could pull out the little rubber button and get it to work, but then it would be silent. Faulty Blu-tooth button. I haven't sent it back yet,

Pros
  • Looks good
Cons
  • Too long to wait

There are better ways!

Radio doesn't work very well, very few stations that work at all and come to my car with a tiny antenna, Bluetooth stopped working the second day, I use it at work, not as loud as I thought it would be because of the size, it has a volume control, but it doesn't seem to help much since I have a bem cube that's almost as loud and half the size that I either have to resort to a static station, or use an extra cable , which doesn't seem to be as loud as Bluetooth and can't use song controls when…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Piggy bank Price

Really good for $80

I think the negative reviews on here are a little worse than they seem. I find this device works very well. It's lightweight, easy to use. Sounds decent. It has a small woofer. That means it delivers decent bass. But it's not a sub, so don't expect it to be. You can improve bass response by placing it on different surfaces. The harder the surface, the better the bass reproduction. Bluetooth connectivity is easy as pie. One note: when connected to a bluetooth device it sounds better and with a…

Good for price and features. Well built.

Update: This thing is a tank. I used it every day of the week for about 6-8 hours a day. He was thrown in and out of my truck multiple times. He was completely submerged in mud, snow and water. Sometimes I turn it on and hide it to scare my kids using my phone as a mic. I lost the charger and bought a universal one, it works perfectly. It was worth every penny. It has been used at 110 degrees and 20 degrees with no problems. I thought the screen was dirty so I tried cleaning it and found there…

  • Pleasant

All in all it's great don't worry if it doesn't charge

It's been a little over 5 months now and I'm generally impressed with this little speaker. It works great for everything I've used it for. Loud enough for outdoor family parties. There are no problems with radio reception, I live in the suburbs. I haven't tested the waterproofness, but water ingress isn't a problem. The Bluetooth connection works well and starts to drop about 50 feet, even less when there are other factors like walls or lots of people around. Overall this is a very good all…

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Nothing

Who needs a DJ when you have one.

This was purchased specifically for our wedding which was small, only about 25 people. We needed something that could be used as a speaker so our guests could hear the outdoor ceremony and it felt like it would fit the bill. We also used it for music when my wife came to our ceremony. It worked great, better than we had hoped. First, as a speaker paired with a microphone, this is an excellent product. We also bought a cheap microphone and plugged it in straight away, worked straight away, no…

  • New to my collection
