Verdict: A long-running, waterproof speaker for the kitchen, desk or beach. It’s mono, so don’t expect room-filling stereo from one unit.
Good for
- All-day play: up to 24 hours
- Outdoors and showers: IPX7
- More bass than most speakers this size: BassUp
Skip it if
- You want stereo from one speaker
