Surprised by the fidelity and tonal balance!
I was drawn to these by the low price, nice form factor, and most importantly, the emphasis on stereo pairing which, if you haven't experienced with Bluetooth speakers, is a game-changer in immersion.I have an embarrassing number of Bluetooth speakers, so I reckon I have a pretty good idea of how they stack up against much of the competition, and it's generally very good.Being a small speaker, you should have reasonable expectations about how much bass they output. It's not a lot. None in this class (size and price) really are that great unless you move well up in price on the slightly larger Tribit and especially Bose Micro. That considered, I'd say these are mid-pack. They're neither the best nor the worst. They shine in every other way, though.Tonally, I find them close to perfect (considering what they are). Sound quality is of course subjective, but they have a balance that I look for in even my full-size home audio equipment, and there's plenty of detail there. The mids are somewhat recessed, just as most people prefer, and the treble is nicely present and capable without being fatiguing. I haven't done any measurements, but just using my ears and comparing to higher quality systems, I don't detect any off-putting peaks or valleys. It's a very agreeable sound, even if light on bass.They get impressively loud without dramatic distortion (though, as with any speaker of the likes, the bassier the song, the more it's going to ut/distort). Of course, you can't cheat physics: these are very small speakers with small amps and small drivers. These won't blow your socks off, but they can easily exceed what I consider to be beyond comfortable casual listening levels. The DSP does a good job of dialing back bass smoothly at high volumes to avoid overdriving. Any good speaker will do this, and this does it better than some.Pairing in stereo is about as simple as it gets, short of use of NFC, which only a handful of speakers seem to do, and none at this price range. Before pairing your device, you pair the speakers to each other first by holding the Bluetooth button for three seconds on each. They link together and then you use the one with the white light (as opposed to blue) to pair with your phone. Now, whenever you turn them both on, they'll automatically pair in stereo. This is exactly what I wanted, and few speakers seem to do this (with just about every other speaker I have that does stereo pairing, you have to link them every single time). Huge bonus points in my book. I wish they were all this user-friendly. Connection stability has been flawless so far.Buttons are nice to push and well laid-out. The speaker communicates with you through pleasant and not overly loud tones, which is nice. No annoying loud voices.I can't quite comment on battery life yet because I'm still on the first charge, but it seems in line with advertised runtime at low to moderate volumes.Earlier I said true wireless stereo is a game-changer, and I stand by that, but I acknowledge that not everyone will care about that and relatively few will regularly use them that way. If you know you're just going to be using one speaker, I'd probably suggest splurging on a slightly bigger model such as the Tribit or Bose (I'd just say the Bose if not for the old micro-USB charging and somewhat short battery life) if you're not dead-set on this size and price. Both of those will also do stereo, but their pairing is slightly more complicated and less reliable, and, of course, buying two is significantly more expensive. But, used in solo, they do have a significantly more robust sound thanks to the extra low-end afforded by their larger size. Of course, if this is the size and price you want to stick with, I think these are the winner.Ultimately, I like these quite a bit and strongly recommend them as long as modest bass isn't a deal breaker (in which case I'd recommend you move up in size). Honestly, if Boomcore makes a bigger version of these with improved bass response, I'll probably buy those too. I think they'd be great traveling computer speakers (e.g. for hotel rooms), especially if they work in an aux port, which so few speakers have anymore unfortunately.LOWS 70/100MIDS 85/100HIGHS 90/100DETAIL 85/100RELIABILITY 100/100FEATURES 90/100---VALUE 90/100OVERALL 90/100RECOMMEND: YES

Great Sound for the Price
I'm highly impressed with the sound quality and volume this small compact speaker delivers. It is easy to use and connects to my IPhone and other devices easily. The only downside are the markings of the volume and on/off buttons which are hard to see. Would buy again.

Double click for Google Assistant!
Great design and features:The same button used to play/pause and answer/hang-up, can be double clicked for Google Assistant.The same button can also be held to decline a call. The volume buttons can be held for FF and RW.There's a button to pair two of these for stereo output.There's a power/pairing button.Three different colors of LED to indicate charge level.Great form factor:No sharp edges. Soft touch materials. Feels durable. Fits in one hand like a small walkie talkie. The charging port is tucked under a rubber plug.Should work well for snowboarding; music and calls.The sound is as fine for such a small speaker. Not sure if a JBL Go 3 would sound any better, but this has 5 watts versus 4 on the JBL.Only real negative is the Amazon description here states 8 Watts and not 5.If I'm being nitpicky it would also help if the buttons were a different color than the rest. Black on black isn't awesome but the layout is very simple, with the volume and multi-function buttons on one side and the power and stereo pairing buttons on top.

Love these!
I love music! Music while I clean, music while I work, music while I roller-skate, bike, Music while I walk the dog…. You get the picture. I work in a warehouse and also with all the other active things that I do I did not want something expensive that’s just gonna get banged up and ruined in a week- Just needed something that works with decent sound and portable figured why not get two? So I got these. Let me tell you I absolutely love them. There’s nothing better than Ordering on Amazon thinking “meh, we’ll see if it’s decent” and it surpasses your expectations plus! I did not expect these to be able to be loud enough to hear them over conveyors belts and trucks and buzzers, But clipped to my belt, it’s great. ( the clips they send with are great quality added plus!) They work great. Is it Bose sound, no? Is it pretty darn good sound for the price? Heck, yeah! Paired up they are even better! I didn’t even think I would pair them up, was going to use one for work and one for at home -but once I tried it yippee! Very happy with my purchase —-and added benefit they match my rollerskates! :) lol!

Excellent! Way better than Skullcandy Ounce +
I returned my skullcandy ounce+ because the audio was crunchy... I got this instead and couldn't be happier!! The sound is much better and the size and shape of the unit is much better as well! Great product!

Buy it!
Honestly I was amazed on how amazing this speaker is. Used it at the pool for 6 hours straight (that was the longest I’ve used it since I bought it) it’s super loud and the sound quality is awesome! It’s small but mighty! Love that it comes with a clip so you can clip it on the go. Definitely considering on buying another.
