Review on 🎤 Bluetooth Karaoke Microphones by IQ Toys by Casey Vance

This IQ Toys device is similar to the more expensive Little Pretender Karaoke. Aside from a different faceplate with a different button layout, everything else appears to be identical (colors aside). Even the LCD display and the sing-along lettering under the front panel are identical. This unit had "mixed" reviews, so I had low expectations for quality and reliability. But I really wanted a player that we could upload our own songs to and stream any songs we don't have via Bluetooth. So I chose this device because there were no known companies producing vocals that had these two functions. Functionally, Bluetooth and the micro SD card work well. Again, these were the main sources I wanted to reproduce. In Bluetooth mode, the play/pause, skip/next and skip/previous buttons worked while controlling the Youtube app on the connected phone, which was a pleasant surprise. Bluetooth range isn't the greatest as I usually have to say I have to keep my phone within 8-10 feet. And as for the micro SD card, note that it sticks out just under 1/8 inch if that worries you (see my photo). My toddler has never tried playing with a microSD card, but I can see the potential choking hazard if a small child can remove it (which is the standard push-to-eject mechanism, btw). As for the mic, when we first got it I had to put my lips directly on the mic to get decent sound even at maximum mic volume. Also, one mic was slightly but noticeably louder than the other. But lately, after my toddler dropped the whole player, both mics got noticeably louder. And one last detail: The instructions say that the microphone volume can be increased to level "20", but only a maximum of "15" on mine. In the end, those mic-related flaws weren't a big deal to me because I really wanted my little one to have a music player, not a karaoke machine. So, for me, mics were just a bonus, not a necessity. Overall, given the price (as of 07.2019) and the equipment, I am very satisfied with this purchase. And I hope this review was helpful to you.
