I bought this for part of a project I had in my head for my upstairs TV, which also required a bluetooth transmitter (reviewed separately). I wanted better sound but also something I could have on close by me at night so as to minimise disruption to my partner. this wouldn't be possible with a soundbar as its meant to be infront of TV, with using this, I can have excellent sound at lower volumes next to me but also when we both watch a sim I can place it in front of the TV. It also means I can use it as a straightforward bluetooth speaker if desired. After doing some reading it appears I can buy another and set them up in a stereo pair which sounds like a really interesting option. In relation to the sound and build quality, both are excellent. You'll notice this looks very similar to a very famous 3 letter brand that begins with J**, Im sure there's no mistake as to why it looks similar and having heard that brand in John Lewis, I can say Im not sure how they can be wort almost 3 times the price of this as the bass out of this is incredible and the sound dent distort when pushed up even to full. I personally wouldn't use it on full as its way to loud, but the speakers deal with it reallyy well if you are that way inclined. It came in a decent box with USB charging lead and 3.5mm AUX lead, no surprises there. It was really easy to pair and setup with the bluetooth transmitter and is straightforward to operate. Cant comment on battery life as I have only got it today, but judging by the high quality finish on the product itself, I have no reason to doubt it will achieve decent results, especially considering I intend to use it at lower volumes, but like everything USB, its so easy to have a decent power bank nowadays, Im really not worried! A great product and for less than £50 a bargain.

I'm very happy with these Bluetooth speaker as they will give you nice music listening experience no matter where you take it along.. Being waterproof means that you can take it literally anywhere, to listen your favourite music I took it to a picnic and it was the soul of the party I was impressed about the sound quality, so crisp, so clear, like the one who's singing is next to you... Spilled even coffee on it... I had to rinse it afterwards as I was afraid the sugar from coffee will stick.... Nothing sticks to it.... Really nice piece of equipment, ideal for bbq, parties, fishing, and anything that comes in your mind... ?
