Super

Bought in 2019, still works

Great little speakers. I have two and this is my second set. I usually have one working while the other is charging. Sometimes they are both playing for the added convenience of having them in separate rooms. I am rough with them, dropping them, etc. One is already rattling. Good value and sound.

Most reviewers ignore the testing of this device for TV listening, where the lack of synchronization between sound and picture is off. It's very disturbing to see the mouth move and the sound come out later. It doesn't matter when listening to music, because the latency isn't an issue. There's no picture there to notice the latency. I think the latency issue is inherent with consumer grade bluetooth devices. Both the TV and the speaker are on the same system, so i think the whole idea of TV use for bluetooth is fundamentally flawed. With this unit, the control buttons cannot be seen easily because they blend in with the background of the side panels. Also, the power switch is hidden in a covered compartment on the top of the unit along with the charging port and the auxiliary input jack. Cannot easily see the controls and requires fumbling to access and choose the right button to press without picking up the item and turning it to see the markings. The triangular design is brilliant for placing speaker on desk top for optimum dispersion of directional high frequencies and can be placed horizontally and vertically on surface with non-skid rubberized case. Finally, this item is very small, about the size of a fist, so it's unobtrusive on a desk top or table. Sound is barely acceptable for music as no lower frequencies are reproduced, so music is tinny and thin. OK for dialog.

Painless experience using. Also, tested for stereo and it is actually left and right channel.
