A great, high-quality speaker. Very unlike the usual cheap plastic competition.

Marshall speaker is the best of Amazing of the sound.

Best quality Bluetooth speakers so far, excellent battery life.

Easy to use and portable. It was a nice addition to the travel bag.

The sound quality is off the chart for such a small unit. May come back and purchase another one to sync up

Best speaker i ever had. We are hearing it with my friends in hall.

Love the sound. Just right about of sound for my jumbo 1br..Love it...!

I've historically had *very* poor experiences with compact Bluetooth speakers (an Amazon Black Friday one died a few months in, and a JBL's chassis started literally crumbling around it after 3 months; neither had great audio quality), so I came into this with extremely low expectations in spite of the prestige behind the Marshall brand name. So far, I've been very pleasantly surprised. Form factor: After unboxing, it's a bit bigger than I had expected, but is still fine for the space I had allocated for it. With a surprising amount of heft to it (the shipping label said 3 lbs, and it feels every ounce), it seems *wonderfully* sturdy. I'm not going to try, but I could probably drop it off a 3 story balcony with only minimal damage to the ground. The manufacturer's claims about its portability does raise an eyebrow given its bulk and weight, but I guess it is on the upper end of models meant to be "portable?" I certainly wouldn't want to go on a hike with this thing lashed to my bag; waist; or wrist (not that that's something I would do in general), but it's simple enough to move around the house. Though it's billed as IP67 dust- and water-resistant (30 min @ 1 m), the lack of an explicit cover for the USB-C port means I'm more than a little hesitant to trust that too much after having multiple Samsung Galaxy phone ports with higher IP ratings fail. I happen to have some little rubber gasket USB-C port plugs I bought for precisely this purpose after I replaced the last phone with a port that failed, so I installed one of those for peace-of-mind while using it in my shower. So far, so good, I guess? UI, battery: All the external surfaces and controls feel extremely high quality and comfortable to use, and the LED battery gauge is an *enormously* welcome surprise when I've been accustomed to only a single white/red indicator light. I love the discrete function buttons for power; Bluetooth pairing; play/pause (the one concession to "simplicity" with which I'm comfortable); and the comfortable 4-directional pattern for volume up/down and previous/next, as I detest the prevailing trend of consolidating core functions that should be separate hard-wired buttons into unnecessarily complex soft button-press "procedures." It came with about an 80% charge (based on the number of lit "notches" on the LED battery gauge) out of the box, which was also a nice little surprise. Charging it fully from that point took a little less than 30 minutes, which is impressive since that last 10-20% typically takes the longest. The app also displays numerical battery percentage, and as it's gone down by about 10% with ~3-4 hours of intermittent use (3-5 songs, pause for a minute or 2 while doing something else, rinse and repeat) across several days, I do not doubt the manufacturer's claim of 32+ hours of playtime. Sound: There is a Marshall BT app, because of course there is, and every hardware manufacturer wants to force us to use separate apps for what should be basic functionality <eyeroll>. The app evidently has *radically* different features for different device models, as the app store images and text did not resemble what I got in the slightest: the store page depicts full EQ customization, but for this model only allows you to choose 1 of 3 EQ presets (default, bass/treble boost, mid boost). While I found the "Marshall" default acceptable in general, I didn't notice much of a difference between it and the "Push" bass/treble boost beyond the fact I didn't care as much for the latter. Though it might be a form of sampling bias with the specific J-pop vocal examples I chose to test it, I found the "Voice" mid boost virtually worthless, as it didn't improve the vocals noticeably and tended to render everything else tinny and thin like the external speaker of a 10 year old cel phone. Unsatisfactory EQ customization options notwithstanding, the sound quality itself is *phenomenal.* I'm beyond impressed that this full, rich sound can come out of something so relatively tiny, and the volume is *shockingly powerful.* Results will obviously vary considerably with source audio, but I was getting an average of ~70-80 dB (I have a decibel meter phone app) from a variety of tracks about 3 feet away at maximum volume with absolutely no distortion or noise. I guess I shouldn't be surprised given the Marshall pedigree, but I really cannot overstate just how *great* this thing sounds. "360° sound" claims are not mere marketing hyperbole, as it sounds amazing from almost every angle except *precisely* frame-on at right-angles to the speaker mesh (and even then, it's just a little muted). Bottom-line: All-in-all, this is a *fantastic* speaker in general, let alone for either a compact or a Bluetooth speaker. I *highly* recommend it on the basis of the sound and build quality alone for even a discerning audiophile, let alone a garden variety consumer. My only *incredibly minor* complaint of any substance is the weird EQ settings in the app, and ultimately that's basically a non-issue when the default setting is perfectly fine. I genuinely don't know how I could be any happier with it.
