Smalody Bluetooth Speakers, Retro Wooden Portable Speaker, Built-in USB, TF Card slot & AUX Input, for Phone, Tablet, PC - Home Decoration

This speaker is surprisingly good. My expectations were low - it looks good in the photos, but I thought at this price it was likely to disappoint. I was completely wrong. It's quite big and feels very solid, it looks great, and has good sound quality with plenty of bass. It also goes quite loud and doesn't distort. It's a convincing wood-effect wrap (not real wood veneer) over what feels like a wooden enclosure - it doesn't feel cheap and lightweight.Mine works fine on Bluetooth - none of the problems a few others have mentioned. I haven't tested the battery life as it's plugged in most of the time - bonus is that it has a USB-C charging port rather that Micro USB.I'm really happy with my purchase.

Had it a few weeks and it seems great. Good build equality for the price. Looks great. Sounds pretty good too.And the battery life is brilliant.I got about 24 hours out of one charge.

The sound is quite impressive. I have linked up to my LG TV to create a Bluetooth surround sound, and it's super.It's also a perfect size, and the finish / appearance is very nice.It is quite portable to move around, however I would have much preferred if the power cable connection was at the back, instead of the Top, at it makes it a bit clunky.Also, the instructions are very basic.

Contrary to a previous review, I find this speaker has excellent bass, as other reviewers have said. The design utilises a very powerful 3 inch long stroke 30watt low frequency driver. I opened the box to check myself. And here is the main point. Used near-field, you can hear the bass cleanly and clearly, with great tone, punch and power, even dynamic expression. You need to place it on a bookshelf or on a solid surface for the best bass balance. This speaker is way too small to fill a room. Even so, for listening from a bedside table, or for near-field listening, the whole sound range from bass to treble is as balanced and as good as you can get for this price, and more. This speaker plays real music. It is actually quite surprising to hear what comes out of this little box. Buy it with confidence if your needs are near-field or close listening.

I like the sound quality and look of the speaker, however in blue tooth mode, there’s an annoying periodic (circa every 10 mins) announcement reminding me that I’m listening in blue tooth mode, which interrupts the flow of music……..there appears to be no way of turning off this interrupting announcement that sadly detracts from the value of the speaker and the enjoyment of music.

It's true; this speaker pumps out a dirty bass that I've not heard from any other speaker this size. I am a fussy guy when it comes to my music, especially the bass tones, and this speaker delivers in loads! The overall volume is amazing, too. This, then, is my only complaint; you can't really achieve a very low volume, as even the lowest setting is very audible. That's a minor issue. A most pleasing purchase and highly recommended, if you like your music bassy and crazy loud.Update: I purchased a second speaker to experience TWS, but it was completely DOA. It was returned and replaced by another which works fine, so I now have two delivering awesome stereo sound.

It’s not holding its charge and I’ve barely had it a year, additionally it came with no remote control. It’s nice looking and sounding though

I've ordered the 8080 with the nice wooden look, which proved to be the only satisfying feature.It does look great (not real wood though, of course), but the sound quality was beyond acceptable. It sounds very distorted, with too much bass, and I was trying hard to equalize it properly, but it has a very irregular sound profile. For a bluetooth speaker which I would want to use with multiple sources it really makes it unusable. Also it has a slight but noticable delay when watching videos. Battery life is ok. The other reviews about this model praise it's sound quality, so mine could have been faulty, but all in all it didn't worth even this low price, so I'm returning it.
