      The very compact loudspeaker is already capable of delivering a decent stereo effect on its own. The user can even combine several models to form a network. Thanks to a very good app, operation is convenient and sound settings can also be made here. The battery lasts a full 20 hours and the only complaint is the lack of a charging function for smartphones and the like.

      • NegativeSlightly larger and heavier than predecessor

      Although the speaker is extremely compact, its sound is also convincing. The bass is rich and the treble clear. Since the model is also shockproof and waterproof, outdoor use and use at the beach are no problem. Wireless use with a smartphone is also a matter of a few moments and the price for the small speaker is also fair.

      All in all, I think it's really, really good. Yes, I rave about it, even among my acquaintances. Of course, there are alternatives in this size and price range (e.g. the Bose Soundlink or the Creative Roar), some of which also offer better sound, but do without most of the features mentioned here (waterproof and shockproof, 360-degree sound, 20-hour battery)...
