Nice Sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup was easy. Paired instantly (with android). Good sound. Low distortion at higher volumes. Gave it 4 stars due to base. Not as much as I would like (but almost all portables of this size lack that). Good price (on sale).
