Why is this a good deal?

You’re getting a respectable 50% discount, and $40 is close to the lowest price we’ve ever seen for this speaker. Combined with all the features it includes, it’s definitely a bargain. There are Bluetooth speakers available for less, but you’d be hard-pressed to find one with this level of water resistance for a similar price.

Why do I need this?

Thanks to the IPX7 waterproof rating, feel free to take your speaker on a tropical vacation or use it by the pool this summer. If it falls out, it’s no big deal—although you probably shouldn’t leave it out in the rain or shower directly in the stream of water.

It’s lightweight, weighing just 1.3 pounds, so it’s great on the go, but it’s also amazing at home for boosting your TV’s audio. The battery provides up to 24 hours of playback on a single charge. You can connect to it via a 3.5mm auxiliary port, USB-C, or Bluetooth. Even better: You can pair two speakers for cinema-like stereo sound. There are a variety of colors, but this huge discount only applies to black.

What the reviewers say

More than 9,700 buyers turned up the music volume, giving this speaker a perfect five-star rating.

Pros

“All I can say is wow!” applauded a user. “Setup was very easy. I had it up and ready to go; it also came fully charged. It also charges very quickly, usually only about two hours. The sound quality is extraordinary, with good bass to it as well. Truly waterproof! I accidentally left it outside and it rained. It still works like new – I’ve had it for about two months.

“I’m an audio technician and I listen to audio tracks through a high-quality system all day, every day,” said another buyer. “I must say that this little speaker is of good quality. I was a little surprised when I first used it. easy.”

“I use it when I’m cleaning the yard” raved a third buyer. “Range with the phone on me is good as long as you keep an unobstructed line of sight. Indoors through walls connectivity is not an issue and with good sound. I like that once paired you don’t have to plug it in.” Activate Bluetooth, turn on the speaker and it’s ready. The battery is strong, with a lasting charge of twice or more than that of the phone.

Cons

“Overall, I love these speakers,” said another fan. Their only problem: “I wish I could use them vertically or horizontally. There is a clip on one end (for people to attach to a bike, backpack, etc., and the charging port is on the other end. These tall -Speakers are specifically designed for horizontal use, but sometimes I want to place them vertically, so I do that anyway, but they’re not that stable.”

One last buyer warned that the microphone is not very sensitive. “The only downside is that when I use it to talk on the phone/Zoom, people tell me that they hear me very quietly. However, no problems on my part, I hear everyone fine. Overall, I recommend it.”
