The sound quality is insane for the size, im not sure how many fairies were murdered for their magics, but whatever it is works. My shallow westernised lifestyles veneer of joy and arbitrary superiority remains intact! Thanks JBL

Great speaker!
For its size its pretty powerful! Only downside naturally for its size is the muffled sound at times, especially during loud bass, easily solved through a decent EQ.

Great.
It’s great for the money!
If you want a tiny speaker for a room it gives the feel of a “big sound” & is quite loud for its size.
Worth every penny.
Ps.
Admittedly I prefer the JBL SRX 815P as use them in ballrooms etc. for work as “tops” because of a natural sound & can go crazy loud.

take it with you
I purchased this to be more portable than my JBL charge. Home to office to truck to camp. Plenty of sound in a packable package.

Near perfect portable speaker
This is an exceptionally great value for the sound quality that you get. I have a number of Bluetooth speakers and this one is the smallest, yet I would put it up against my other bigger ones anytime. I have yet to try the aura cast feature but would love to see how that works and the increase in sound stage.

Wonderful Small Speaker
This is a wonderful small speaker! It has great balanced sound through the lows, mids, and highs. It's very crisp and clear. Stylish too. Very well constructed. Love the features and the App.

The charging cord is a joke and is so short it makes the overall unit seem very poor to average

Great!
Small and tidy, but packs a punch. Great sound quality in a pocket sided speaker. Highly recommend.
Little difficult to connect to a laptop, but can be done. You need to disable the "Use Floss instead of BlueZ" option in your laptop settings (was not easy to find in my Chromebook Plus settings).

Not bad
A cute little speaker, easy to set up and operate. Sound is great at a lower volume but distorts at higher volume, not a problem using in the bathroom but would be disappointing if used outside. All in all not bad for the price.

Response from Staples :
Thanks for your feedback. The published up-to playtime is the maximum battery time you will get when listening at background levels. As you turn up the volume, the playtime will be reduced, much like a phone battery when you brighten the screen. The same goes for source material. Music with more bass will also reduce playtime. It is possible that the battery is working correctly, but it depletes more quickly when the volume is very loud and/or the bass has been boosted. Please try to charge the battery to 100% and then listen to music without any bass boosted, and at a very low volume. If the battery lasts close to the published up-to playtime, the battery is working fine. However, if you get less than 90% of the published spec, this likely means that the battery is losing its capacity.

Awesome little speaker!
I absolutely love it! I got two for the stereo sound and it’s amazing! It doesn’t have much bass but it has a lot of bass for its tiny size. Great product!
