    Nice upgrade on the smart speaker

    If your looking at smart speakers with decent sound quality this is a good option. We listen to a variety of music from classic to blues to pop to rock and the speaker does a good job producing a quality sound with a clean bass sound. The rest of the functions take a little time and research to explore and set-up but once set-up are easy to use.
