I bought this speaker to replace an older non-wireless dock, and am very impressed at the build quality, sound output and connectivity options it offers. The NFC capability is amazingly useful to initiate connections quickly and easily save messing around trying to connect via bluetooth. The range is great and the very very small footprint fools the listener into thinking the sound will be subpar...... how wrong they are. Even with the sound enhancement technology built into the speaker on or off, the sound is very loud (even when running on battery and not AC) very clear and has a formidable bass frequency output! Easy enough to take around with you, on holiday or outdoors when washing the car. Battery seems to last a long time on standard volume listening levels, only downside I can point out is possible wear on the buttons down the track. The exterior of the speaker is a soft rubberised plastic, which helps keep the speaker stable. Extremely impressed in the

I bought this mainly for listening to podcasts although it's great for music too. Can be easily transported from room to room, which is very useful.
