    For being a little Bluetooth speaker, this thing is crazy. I bought it for my car so I could listen to my favorite music without burning out my phone's speaker. It's loud, has good base, and it actually fits perfectly into my cup holders, so I don't have to mess with it while driving. The battery is decent, as it stayed at 100% for a few trips from home to the bus/home to work (around 4-5 days), but after hitting 70-50%, the battery drains quickly. All in all, this is a perfect speaker, and, if your looking for a new Bluetooth speaker for your car, I recommend this one over most other ones.
