Customer Ratings & Reviews

This mighty speaker is lightweight, very portable and powerful, Sounds was clear and loud enough to satisfy media consumption. It is waterproof and has 4 hours of battery life on full charge and also has good wireless range. It can fill entire small-moderate room to enjoy the music and sound for all the people. I got this on deal and use it with my laptop for which sound is almost low. So, I can use it with my laptop at least to fulfill my work.

I’m so glad I bought this speaker! Nice sound and dependable quality!

I love this portable speaker. Sounds was clear and loud enough to satisfy my enjoyment. Been using it in my small room

Small but mighty! I love my new mini Bluetooth speaker. Got it on sale, win win!

My auto radio died. This is a full sound boom box!

My 12-year-old loves this and she plays music for my 10 month old

Having just moved to Florida after spending the first 50+ years of my life in New Jersey and New York, I realized that I need to have some waterproof items. So, to enhance my pool and beach time, I went out looking for some fairly priced Bluetooth speakers. I was looking for portable and lightweight, waterproof and of course with good sound quality and battery life. I did what I usually do and headed out to Best Buy and ended up getting the very economical Altec Lansing Baby Boom XL Portable Bluetooth Speaker. After I was able to figure out the very complicated plastic packaging (punch holes in both sides and press up with two fingers), and get the speaker out, I found paring with my LG Smartphone very easy. The volume controls and Bluetooth button on top serve as dual use purpose. The Bluetooth button is also pause / play or answer a phone call. The volume up/down is also advance or rewind. With a certified IP67 waterproof rating, the Baby Boom XL can handle being brought onto the sand, mud or even tossed into the pool – it will float! Most importantly for me is the sound quality for an ultra lightweight speaker was excellent, with about 6 hours of battery life on a 2-hour charge. It makes this ideal for me to carry in my small laptop bag. It’s now with me wherever I go traveling up and around Florida. This product gets my 4.5/5 star recommendation and I suggest you head out to Best Buy and get yourself an Altec Lansing Baby Boom XL Portable Bluetooth Speaker today. Or buy two units and pair them for true stereo sound!

When I saw the Altec BabyBoom XL, I was very smitten with this cute little gadget!  Perfect for on the go whether you are working.traveling or just hanging out at the beach.

Just 1 1/2 hrs play time whit Bluetooth... very very bad deal.

This speaker is small but mighty! The sound is crisp and clear! And boy does it have some BASS! I love that we can take it anywhere! And by anywhere I mean in the pool and on the go! The kids love that they can rock out with it in the pool! It's easy to operate and has a long battery life! This is a totally awesome speaker for the price and size!

This little speaker was great! It had a nice big sound for how little it was. I use past tense here because it finally met its end after a few years… But I was pretty rough on this thing! I had it sitting in the shower with me and it had so much bass it would slide off and smack onto the shower floor. But time and time again I would just pop the front grating back on and it would keep chugging. I think it just had a few too many drops and maybe got a little too wet and pooped out on me. Great speaker for the price though!

My duaghter actually took over the Altec Lansing Baby Boom LX Portable Bluetooth Speaker because she loved it to much and it was easy for her to take from her room to the restroom when she showered. She used to try and take my tablet so I was trilled that she fell in love with this spaker. There is plenty of battery life, up to 30 hours! Plus Qi Wireless + USB smartphone charging, 5 LED Lighting modes – beat to music, slow pulse, slow fade, constant, and off, and my personal favorite is the IP67 Everything Proof rating – and floats! So she can safely use it while she is taking a shower or bath. House Party pairing – pair up to 50 compatible speakers together Impressive, Bass filling Altec Lansing sound I can't recommend this speaker enough especially if you have kids to like to jam out while they shower!

The Altec Lansing Baby Boom XL Portable Bluetooth Speaker is rugged and ready to rock, and must-have when we travel! Loaded with up to 6 hours of battery life per charge, this speaker will last through our longest hikes, pool days, or beach days! It has a certified IP67 waterproof rating and can handle being brought onto the sand, mud or even tossed into the pool up to 1 meter. I don't have to worry about the kids losing it as we enjoy the water– it will float! Plus, the Baby Boom XL comes with a built-in carabineer clip to simply clip and bring all our music along on the go! We've even paired two Baby Boom XL’s together to receive double the volume! Best of all, with a 30ft wireless range, I can safely leave my smartphone in a safe location, free of the dangers of water, while we rock out to our favorite songs at the pool or beach. We don't leave the house without our Baby Boom! We store the device and charge cord in the car so we always have it for any adventure.

Have had for a Couple of years now and still works great. Battery life is good for the size and sound is good for the size

I didn't know what to expect as far as the sound coming from such a compact speaker, but let me tell you - it ROCKS! I've had my Altec Lansing Baby Boom XL for a couple of weeks now and use it almost every day. I use it most often in my workshop but did take it hiking a few times and it did not disappoint. It's easy to connect to your phone or other Bluetooth device and it's even waterproof. No complaints about this speaker - everything I need and more!

My 5 star review centers around the fact this is a very small portable speaker; not a neighborhood disturbing boom box. I have had several Altec Lansing products all of which were impressive, spendy but impressive. This is sans the spendy part. A fine sounding speaker best used as a personal speaker and avoiding the urge to think you can power up a party. The sound range is full, the bass is small but it is there considering (not a boom box) the highs are clear and the volume is clear to full volume. Not terribly loud and is perfect that way for a personal unit. This is a very good value, sound is good, battery life is sufficient, (depending on how loud you like playing it), I haven't dropped it yet so I can't attest to its durability. For the cost its hard to go wrong. I would certainly purchase this again.

This is a great little speaker! It is cheap - $29.99 cheap - but it really sounds pretty good. The speaker is small - perhaps 4" long, and very light weight, but it puts out an impressive sound. The bass is acceptable for me, and is actually better than I expected considering how light weight the speaker is. If you want a lot of bass, you simply need to spend more money and buy a bigger speaker. If you want some basic nice sounding tunes that you can clip to your backpack with the included carabiner, or to keep in the garage or keep in the bathroom to keep you company while you brush your teeth, this little speaker rocks. The Bluetooth connects effortlessly to my iPhone. Altec Lansing hit a home run with this very entry level Bluetooth speaker. Kudos to them.

Music has always been a HUGE part of my life. I am one of those crazy ladies you would see belting out a tune in the car while stopped at a light. I sing as if I am standing before a crowd of thousands, even if I am the only one in the car. With the advancement of technology today, it has come a long way since my Walkman days in the 80’s and I absolutely love it! I love that this tiny power speaker is small enough to carry in my pocket, but loud enough to allow an entire room of people to enjoy the sound.

Pretty good sound for such an inexpensive little speaker. It’s not great, but better than I expected. I don’t have much in the way of making adjustments other than the volume but i only use it to listen to my iPhone music because I don’t have any other way of listening to my music over the car stereo. There was a higher priced model that may have had extra features but this is really pretty good. I was able to carry it to the beach too, it’s so small and I do not have to worry about ruining it with sand, so ya, I’m happy with it!!
