    If you tell me the speaker has 12 hours, battery life..., I don’t believe (from a buyers point of view) that means the speaker is on, volume full blast with nothing playing. Bluetooth worked fine, volume worked fine, but the battery life is described correctly. I maybe had 4-5 hours.

    worked beautifully for two days, then stopped working completely. no indicator of charging, no response when pushing buttons. didn't move speaker for several days so it wasn't damaged by shock or any other environmental factors. found a handful of threads online describing identical issues with this model. solutions proposed included factory reset, but many owners seem to have to reset frequently and i didn't want to pay this much money for something that was going to consistently have issues. :(

    I need to return this. It will not charge up. I bought to take on the golf course to listen while we played. Never could get it to charge then and just got it back out today to play music and it won’t charge So I will bring it back to the store this week to hopefully trade it for another

    Returned for JBL flip 4 as it is not a stereo sound it is a mono speaker. Sound quality was great but it felt like a downgrade from the Flip 4
