Many appreciate the deep bass and impressive volume, along with the convenience of Bluetooth connectivity and voice assistants like Alexa. While some find the price a bit high, the overall positive feedback highlights its excellent audio performance and compact design. The speaker's water resistance is also a frequently mentioned plus.

    Does what it’s supposed to do but sometimes doesn’t play well with the 700 sound bar.

    Excellent product, and great sound quality for the size. My only con so far are: in order to connect via Bluetooth you must use the app, and the battery gets really low just on standby. I've just purchased the charging base, so hopefully that will help improve the experience. Overall I love it!

    I was excited about this purchase after researching for a speaker to meet my needs. I’m 100% pleased with my purchase. Downside-the charging base wasn’t available.

      Posted .

      Hello, it's great to see that you enjoy the sound of the speaker.
      The battery drain depends on the volume the speaker is being used at, and how far the speaker is from the wifi router/access point. During normal listening levels and depending on distance to the wifi router/access point, you can expect up to 12 hours of battery life.
