| WHAT OUR TEAM THOUGHT | |
It’s simply a high-performance, wireless speaker that features water resistance, an in-built handle, and a lightweight design, while also delivering a powerful low-end performance that can fill a room. |
It's an affordable little speaker that delivers a huge bang for the buck. We like that it delivers an extended battery life when not plugged in. But it has to be the excellent sound quality that packs a low-end punch that is our top feature of this product. |
