    Great Speaker for my Game Computer set up. Wanted to get away from all the cluster of cables. Nice compact and stylish. It lasts 4 days then needs charging.

    Easily connected to my iPhone. Not a BOOM box - but the sound quality is excellent! Used it to sooth my granddaughter with Mozart -- and it worked!!

    Omnidirectional is plus or minus. Excel quality.

    Omnidirectionality fills a small room (very nice) but if you need single directionality for bedside tv watching etc while trying to keep rest of room or apt quiet, then look at single directional unit which sends all the sound energy one direction. Super value and does well for us especially if we are moving around doing chores in kitchen or bedroom.

    I bought one of these speakers to use with my Samsung Galaxy phone, and I loved it so much that I bought a second one. They pair easily for stereo sound, are loud, and sound great. Now I put the speakers on either side of my desk and have great stereo sound while watching movies. I recommend them for anyone that wants a small speaker, but still wants powerful sound.

    For the money, I had expected better, particularly given the solid brand name. The sound isn't bad, but nothing overly impressive. Unfortunately, my biggest issues with this speaker lie in its weak volume. I like to use these little guys to play music while I'm doing my 1-2 hour morning swim, and this one just doesn't have nearly the decibels of some of the less pricey models I've used in the past--in fact, when the filter is running I can barely hear anything (and I play a great deal of Def Leppard and AC/DC). Now the battery life does seem generous, and if my intended use was to keep the thing right at my side while I drink coffee on the deck, I'd probably be far more satisfied with my purchase, but for my current needs, I'll need to keep looking.

    This little gem puts out a good amount of sound! I live in a very small condo and keep it in the stairway. I hear wonderful music all throughout the house. It has held a charge a good long time and I have been quite satisfied with the sound quality for the price. I had a mini-crasher that was lost by the teenager who was asked to go to Best Buy and obtain an adequate replacement. He done good.

    This is my second such speaker as I have one upstairs for my sewing room and now one downstairs at my quilt frame. These speakers could not in my mind be better. Wonderful sound. Excellent base, clarity and I am tickled pink with my purchase.
