MANTOCuckoo Portable Bluetooth Speaker, IPX5 Waterproof Wireless Speaker with Stereo Sound, 12H Playtime, Micro SD Support for Shower, Outdoor, Camping, Hiking

The advertised images are enlarged for detail. The actual speaker is smaller and is ideal. It's very portable and the carabiner makes it convenient to place anywhere.The sound quality is excellent and it's convenient for use in hiking, listening to audio while washing or cooking and when there is no additional volume to add on devices (laptop, phone etc). Phone calls are clear and audible. Includes quick guide manual that highlights main features and functions. The power off feature when the device is not active is convenient for battery saving so recharging regularly is not necessary.The volume control on the speaker, however, is limited to the device (phone, laptop etc) when using Bluetooth and is only available when using the micro SD card. Over Bluetooth, the keys function as a next or previous button.It is a compact, light weight device that is sturdy and can take a hit. It was marketed well and boasts the advertised features. It was reasonably priced as opposed to if I had purchased a speaker locally and would not have gotten this combination of features.There was also a support card for reaching out to the supplier if any issues were experienced with the product as well as to get a refund. Excellent follow up on customer purchase.A very satisfied customer.

Better than the ones I bought that were slightly cheaper. These are way faster to link up to your phone and they can play twice as much music from the sd card (64). The sd card is good to listen to your purchased music which is something most people don't do these days, but I still have a ton. When your phone is running out of batteries it's a good second option.Some good things that are better than other comparable models:-No annoying beeping when the battery is low. I have another brand that makes a repetitive beeping and it's the main reason I don't use that other one.-The buttons are easy to access without looking much. Play in the center and skip/volume buttons next to it. I like that the skip button is just one click using the volume. For raising or lowering the volume you press and hold. It makes more sense to me since I like to skip ahead in podcasts (ads) and songs I'm not into that day.-The rubber/plastic with the hook hasn't ever broken off like other brands.Update* I'm on my third set now. The first two are still working really well after over 2 years now. I use this speaker everyday for 2 years. That's about 500 times at 4-6 hours because I work as a postal carrier and in rough winter weather. I think after that time the battery life has died somewhat. From not having to charge for a few days to daily. It's not a problem since it last an entire day outside which for me is 6 hours. There are no batteries that can deal with the use I put into it and the weather being so harsh. Also one of the speakers tiny door to close where you charge it or where the 64 SD card is doesn't close very well or hard to. It's not a problem, but might be annoying. Over use and tiny design flaw. One of the speakers is also sometimes shutting down without notice (doesn't make the sound), but it's because it's very low on batteries and the battery is already getting old.

I bought this earlier in the summer and wanted to wait to review it. The reason for purchasing was to use on our pontoon. I charged it up, and it linked very easily to my phone. Buttons are self-explanatory, so it is very easy to use. The first time I used it, my husband was very impressed with the sound quality. Much better than just using the phone speaker. Volume is good, and when turned up to the maximum, still does not interfere with the sound quality. I did have to read other reviews/questions to understand how to use the volume on the unit itself. This little speaker is small, but powerful. It's gotten wet multiple times, not like thrown in the water, but plenty of water around on the boat and poolside. Battery life is great. I think I've used it almost every weekend we've been on the water, and only charged it twice. The one day we listened to music for a good 6 hours with no issues, and it still had juice the next weekend. I'm very happy I purchased this speaker, and I am impressed for the price. I would recommend it to anyone who needs a reliable, portable, water resistant, quality speaker.

Here one of the coolest feature rich little Bluetooth speakers from Manto. Let me tell you this thing rocks. It’s loud and clear. It has great features. It is capable of Bluetooth play back of course, as well as SD card playback. It’s easy to pair to your phone or tablet. It even has forward, backward an play/pause buttons. It has a nice anti-vibration pad on the built in on the back to prevent the speaker from moving while at higher volumes. It works great in the shower until it gets too much water in it. Just keep it out of the the stream of the shower stream and it’s just awesome for its price and size. I have a high end Bose speaker and this one doesn’t lag to far behind it. I love that it’s so crisp and loud and you can take it anywhere. I took it for a bike ride, on a walk, in the shower, and just put it on the mantel and listened to Van Halen 1984 at full volume. The battery life is very good. I played a 4 hour play list and moderate volume while working in the garage and didn’t have to charge it. The quality and performance is outstanding for a speaker of this size and price.these will make great gifts for the upcoming holidays. Good job Manto! You’ve done it again.
