SoundBot® Waterproof Shower Speaker HD Water Resistant Bluetooth Handsfree Portable with Loud Clear Sounds 6+hrs of Playtime, Wireless Suction Cup Small Durable for Outdoors Travel Home SB510 (Pink)

This thing is amazing! If you listen to audio on your phone this is a must-have. I bought this item with very low expectations, hoping maybe it could be useful as a shower radio. Upon ordering I was concerned about the quality and about the battery life. The idea of having to charge this thing on a regular basis did not appeal to me and the price seemed like there was a catch.This speaker is very well built, with an easy interface, and water resistant design.The speaker was loud and clear enough to listen to podcasts in the shower. You can even accept incoming calls on this thing. Though the call quality and volume were less than impressive, this was a feature that wasn't necessary to me. Turning it on and off is as easy as holding the power button, so I turn it off when I am not using and have yet to recharge the battery once. The battery life has impressed me. My favorite feature is the giant suction cup on the back. The suction cup is great, it works on so many surfaces. I would stick it to my shower wall, then pop it off and set it on my desk to do work, then pop it on the fridge when cooking, and finally stick it to a window outside to listen to music. Make sure to dampen the suction cup before applying for the best hold, though its rarely needed. I have used this product in so many more ways than I initially intended. "Unbelievable" is a word that is thrown around frequently in regards to pricing, but the quality and versatility of this product has left me stunned at how cheap it is selling for. This is one of those items that you think you don't need until you have it and use it ALL THE TIME. If you are a hardcore audiophile looking for a great speaker, there are plenty of more premium options that deliver a better sound experience. This is not an elite sound quality speaker, and I wouldn't purchase it if your looking to use it mainly for phone answering. If you are however looking for something to amplify your music when cooking/cleaning, or a versatile shower radio, or a highly portable speaker for outdoor activities, or a the easiest gift idea for anyone with functioning ears, then look no further. This is one of the best values on Amazon.

I give this five stars in consideration for the price. However, do not mistake this for an excellent product itself. This is, by no means, an incredible speaker. For only ten bucks, it is a fantastic bargain, but don't expect sound quality like Beats or Bose. At least in my master bathroom, it has a muffled sound, especially when the shower is on. And it's really not THAT loud. I find it to only slightly enhance the original volume of music from my iPhone at its loudest. And I find the buttons troublesome. They confuse me. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don't, but I honestly am not sure if this is just because I don't understand how to use them (I thought I did after reading the instructions, but they haven't worked well for me, so either I misunderstood or they just don't work well) or they malfunction. I write this review mainly to express cons, so as to help provide a more detailed picture of what new customers would be getting from this purchase: I personally find it annoying how the on/off power of the speaker is laid out. When you turn it on/off, a red light flashes on the button and you hear a distinctive sound to signal either on/off. However, this only lasts for a few seconds, so after say a minute, you have no way of telling if the speaker is actually on/off. I also have to complain about the suction cup. I have settled for just laying the speaker down on the shower seat or just outside the shower (maybe on a sink counter or on the edge of the bath-tub), as the suction easily pops and the speaker falls to the ground after ten-twenty minutes. I say this solely based on my own experience in my personal bathroom. But I would estimate that this is the same for anyone else, unless you have some magical shower wall surface. So this certainly wouldn't be able to hold onto the shower wall for days on end. You'd have to place it on the wall before each shower and then take it off when you are finished, before it clatters to the ground by itself. This strategy worked well enough for me, except I found this incessantly repetitive process to be terribly annoying. But, once again, considering the very cheap price of this sticker, this is absolutely fantastic! The sound quality, while slightly muffled, is pretty fantastic. There are no weird static-y noises that most speakers at this price would have. And the blue color is gorgeous! I love it! So, in the "competitive" pool of ten-dollar speakers, this SoundBot is a sure win! I forgot to mention, the battery life isn't very long. I have to recharge it every few days, even though I only use it for my daily morning routine (I'd estimate this lasts about twenty-thirty minutes each day). And the charger that comes with it only includes the chord, not the plug. You have to get a plug yourself. I just use the one that came with my personal iPad charger, since the cable end is of the USB-format. (I'm not very technical in terms) This is kind of annoying, but it works for me. Just a heads up, though, for all you potential buyers. All in all, if you're looking for a bargain deal, I'd definitely recommend! It does the job! If you're looking for a great sound quality, I'm sorry to say that this speaker isn't for you. You most likely won't be satisfied.

I purchased both the SoundBot SB510 and Wusic bluetooth wireless speakers. I recommend the Wusic speaker by a one star margin due principally to Wusic connecter, sturdiness and slightly better sound. Both work great in the shower and are improvements over the phone speaker. Here is a side by side comparison. Price. When I purchased the units the two were price equivalents. Oddly, I have seen various prices (all prime) so the Wusic can be $1 cheaper to $8 more. Prices fluctuate so I would not pay more than a couple of dollars premium for the Wusic before going to the SoundBot. Sound. The Wusic has a slight edge but only in side by side comparisons. The Wusic was a little crisper at the higher volumes. Compared to the Samsung Galaxy phone speaker both were fantastic improvements. Compared to the Apple 5 phone speaker, both provided greater volume and depth. In other words, these are great additions. But neither are stereo nor can two be paired to be stereo. There are other speakers, like the HMDX Jam Plus, can be paired so that they play in stereo, but those stereo speakers are not water resistant. Putting the unit's suction cup on a hard surface (even if the suction is not employed) improves the bass sound. So don't just put the unit in a hanging shower organizer or the bass is not as good. Volume. Many complain about loudness. I think that they don't realize that there are two volume controls, the speaker's and the phone's. I suggest putting the speaker to full volume and then adjusting the volume through the phone, which I find easier to manipulate. Bluetooth Pairing. Both speakers pair very easily, just turn on the speaker and the phone blutooth function (my preferred order) and they pair automatically. The Wusic has an obnoxious loud voice while the SoundBot is quieter. There were occasional Bluetooth drop offs but I blame my Galaxy. Both units easily switch from one phone to the other but I think that we caused interference once or twice and had to turn off one phone's Bluetooth. Both have about a ten yard range. The SoundBot had an endlessly blue/red flashing light that I could not figure out, which knocked it down another peg for me. Battery. Both came charged and seemed to hold similar charge times. However, a big difference for me was the power connector. The Wusic has a standard mini-USB of which I have a few power cords. The SoundBot has a small circular non-standard charger. I hate it being non-standard so I knock it a full star for that alone. It complicates the SoundBot's charging for me as I am always looking for its unique power cord. Controls. Both have the forward/back buttons double as volume buttons. The SoundBot feels much flimsier in its construction but I liked the size of its buttons. Despite the size, the flimsiness of the construction brought me back to the Wusic. Both can take calls but in the shower conversations are very difficult due to ambient noise. Conclusion. I went back and bought a second Wusic for the office as they were still price equivalent. The Wusic is sturdier with a universal charger. If that is not important to you then go by the lowest price. EDIT: Third time's a charm. If you are not concerned about water-proofing then the speaker to get is: DKnight Magicbox Ultra-Portable Wireless Bluetooth Speaker,Powerful Sound with build in Microphone, Works for all smart phones. The Dknight ($30) has a much fuller sound than the Wusic or Soundbot.

*************************** UPDATED REVIEW: *************************** Well friends, there is good news. After the folks at Soundbot saw my original review [posted below], they added a comment about how I should reach out to them via email with my order information and copy my review. So I did! And guess what? I received a quick email response letting me know that I would be receiving a new SoundBot® SB510 HD Water Resistant Bluetooth 3.0 Shower Speaker, Handsfree Portable Speakerphone with Built-in Mic, 6hrs of playtime, Control Buttons and Dedicated Suction Cup for Showers, Bathroom, Pool, Boat, Car, Beach, & Outdoor Use - Black at no extra charge. Ok, I'll check it out. #BAM! A few days later, there it was. Arrived safe and sound through the U.S. Post and included 2 charge cords. Nice!! I tried to charge it up straight away, however the charge wasn't staying on for more than a second or two. "Oh no," I thought, "not again!" But then I wondered if they had specially tested this replacement unit and had it fully charged for my immediate enjoyment. BOOM! They did! Ha ha ha. I stuck this thing up in our shower once again and linked to it instantly. The music was loud and I was happy, yet still cautious for the first few days... How long was the battery charge going to last this time? OVER A MONTH! What?! Yeah, you heard it right. The awesome little speaker kept rocking out the shower tunes for over a month before it finally turned itself off. No way!! I plugged in one of the chargers and let it sit overnight. That was a few weeks ago. So far, after a single charge, it looks like it's going to go for yet another month. This thing is brilliant! Sure, it wasn't ideal that I needed a replacement, but the way SoundBot handled this was extraordinary. I had to update my review from 1 star to 5. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! And, if you get a dud, don't worry. SoundBot will take care of you, in a 100% free way. Thanks, SoundBot! AWESOME!!! *************************** My Original Review: *************************** THE GOOD: Like many 1-star reviewers have stated: at first I was able to charge the SoundBot SB510 easily, as well as pair it via Bluetooth to my Android Galaxy S5 phone. The sound is excellent in the shower, it stays stuck to the walls pretty easily, and overall not bad for the price. THE BAD: The main problem is that you have to re-charge this little guy every time you want to use it. The charge only lasts for 1 shower (tested up to 20 minutes) and then it needs a full re-charge again. This morning, I discovered that even if you fully charge the SoundBot and then attempt to use it a few days after that charge, forget it. it's dead and needs a fresh new charge again. FINAL CONCLUSION: From the generous number of positive reviews, mixed in with a heaping side of negative reviews, it appears the consistency of this product is the main issue. For some people, this product will work as expected. For others, it's a painful waste of time. If you are a gambler, take a shot and hope for the best, but if you want something a little more reliable, I would suggest spending some extra cash for something more reliable.

Before buying this shower speaker, I was a little hesitant because there were some negative comments about the volume and it's integrity againts water. But because there were many who were happy with it too, I decided to give it a try... and I am glad that I did. I am very pleased with this purchase for reasons more than one. Let me share some details. (1) It looks very good and it is as it shows in the picture. (2) It is water resistant.... meaning that it does withstand the little droplets here and there from splashing in the shower and it does withstand the moisture build up in the bathroom from the warm water. Nothing beats being careful too so just position it where it needs to be... far from direct water as it is not waterproof and near enough to reach it when you need to like when naswering a phonecall or adjusting the volume etcetrera. After showering, I do take a piece of paper towel and wipe it... just my way of TLC for it. (3) The volume is marvelous. TIP: make sure that your music source is at maximum and simple control the volume from the speaker itself. Otherwise, if the source is at a minimum you will not be able to make it any louder from the speaker volume adjustment. (4) The signal / reception is superb! I have uninterrupted music flowing out of this thing even when my phone is a good distance from it. The phone works well too. Clear conversations bothways. I have used a more expensive bluetooth speaker before wherein I had to take my iphone IN THE BATHROOM for it to have uninterrupted feed to the speaker! Frustrating! So I am sticking with this blue baby :)) (5) To turn it on was a little puzzle for me but I got it figured out... press the power button and you'll hear one beep / sound. Don't release... just keep pressing and you will hear a series of beeps / sounds... that is when the speaker is on. To turn it off is the same way. (6) Battery life is very good. I can only put it this way... I charged it 4 hours prior to initial use as the instructions said. I have been using this daily for 2 WEEKS now and have not charged it again yet. (5) The sound is superb! I am well pleased all in all. 1/9/15 Update: I have been using this daily for the past 2 1/2 months and have only needed to charge it twice so far. One charging a month is not bad at all! Still works great to this time!

Will not stick to my tiled shower walls wet or dry. I have tried numerous times. Each time I walk in, I pick it up off the shower bottom. Good news is, it hasn’t broken yet

Bought this for use in, shocker, the shower. I read a lot of the reviews first and I found them to be very helpful. I have to agree with others. The manual such as it is, is largely useless. But the comments from the reviewers were all that I needed. I have remembered to power it off every time when I am getting out. So far the very first charge has held up for several weeks of 20-30 minute showers. So the battery life IF YOU REMEMBER to turn it all the way off is actually really good. The sound quality is just fine. Honestly there is enough noise from the water flow in the shower that anything small amount of loss in quality is fully masked. The volume gets more than loud enough. As others have mentioned there is a control on the speaker itself. So I have gotten in the habit of turning up the volume on the source device completely and then controlling the actual volume level from the speaker itself. This works very well. When both the player is at max and the speaker is as well it is honestly too loud. Which is really nice. So much better to be able to turn it down to what you want then to be annoyed that you can't turn it up far enough. I have it mounted on the side wall of the shower, so it gets some splash effect but no direct water. As I said after several weeks of constant use it works great. Some reviewers here and elsewhere were annoyed by the non micro-USB charge cable. I took a good look at it when it came and the reason seems to be clear to me. The rubber "cap" that seals that off so that water can't get fits down in to the circular hole for the charging cable. I like the extra security that would likely come from that. The charge cable just plugs into one of my USB charging bricks and all is well. Personally given the fact that I only had to charge it once in several weeks, I have not found it annoying at all. There has been a few things I would love to see added to this. The only one worth mentioning is that the controls are very rudimentary when watching a movie. It has a next and previous button that jump to other movies/shows. I would love a button press (single or combination) that performed fast-forward and rewind within the same playing show. If it had that it would be truly awesome. So if anyone else has discovered one do let me know. I would highly recommend this little speaker for ease of paring, sound quality, overall volume, how well it sticks to the wall, etc. Except for a FF and RW option I couldn't ask for more.

Used in shower for over a year, solely for audio playback (didn't use calls or phone functions), found some pros and cons. What's good: - It handled several drops that I was convinced had broken something. But it kept on trucking. (I dropped it out of clumsiness while mounting/dismounting it to recharge.) - The suction mount is robust on glass and with water around. Never once slipped by itself. It stays on even when bumped accidentally, as there is some flexibility at the joint. It's quite light overall, so doesn't stress the suction. - It can be rotated after mounting so you don't have to line things up perfectly while sticking it on the wall. - It's water-resistant (not waterproof) but in practice makes little difference. It's okay with constant splashing water from the shower. - It plays reasonable sound, reasonably consistently. Mostly used for voice/radio broadcasts and podcasts -- works just fine. - The buttons do the job most of the time. What's not so good: - Sound quality isn't exceptional. Probably best for voice/radio, but passable for music too (the speaker's noise tends to merge with the shower's noise anyway). - When the battery starts running low, the notification gets really annoying (it beeps and silences playback every few seconds). I'd prefer a continuous visual battery indicator instead of being surprised by an alert. - Battery life and recharge time are what you'd expect for a cheap gadget. It's not too cumbersome to recharge every week or so, but I often forget to charge it (despite the annoying beeps) and find myself wishing it could fast-charge for another 30 minutes or something just for one time... and so I miss out on running it about once every month. - Wired connectivity is average -- micro-USB and not type C. - Wireless connectivity very occasionally falters. Usually pairs fast and doesn't drop, but a few times it has required resetting power to get it to sync. Range is fine -- I use it across about 8m or 25 ft and through a bathroom door. - There is some lag in the audio, which isn't usually a concern (you probably won't be watching video). But I sometimes use it to split an audio stream that's also playing via other speakers in an adjacent room. That arrangement can create an echo effect when you're able to hear both. - Volume control and normalizing is annoying with a PC. Adjusting the volume with the speaker's buttons can tune the device's own level but doesn't change my PC's volume (so it can only go quieter and not louder relative to the upstream output). Sometimes the PC's output is too quiet and there's no way to raise it from the speaker itself. I often have to bounce between the shower and the PC before getting in to ensure it's all OK. - The buttons are mostly problem-free, but the signal to turn off the device is a long-press (~3 seconds) that can be fiddly. It's surprising how easy it is to start pressing it in such a way that it's hard to keep up the pressure (it needs to stay deep) for the whole long-press duration. That's because of the flexible mount which lets it move around a bit. Sometimes I hold it down for 5 seconds only to find silently gave up at 2 seconds, so I have to try again -- which can finally take about 10 seconds to turn off the thing. Wish there was a simpler on/off switch. - The buttons can be hard to read in bathroom light or with water interfering with sight. The gray interface has little contrast, doesn't illuminate clearly, and isn't clear to the touch. But once you get used to the layout it's easy enough -- there are only five buttons, arranged logically. The bottom line is that for a fairly low price I went from having no streaming audio to having some streaming audio in the shower, without too much hassle to operate and maintain. If you want that too, this product will work and last a while (probably like many of the other products at the same price point, to be fair). If you want a unique gadget with high quality sound or a fully polished user experience, look elsewhere.

اشتغلت اول يومين لانها كانت مشحونة شوي بعدها خلاص ما تشحن

Really good quality sound and build. Very impressed with it, especially for the price, it is definitely great value for money. It is really easy to connect to devices and the sound quality is much better than I expected. It's slightly bigger than I pictured it but it's worth the extra size for the better quality sound. I haven't tested it in the shower yet so cannot comment on its waterproofing but judging by the quality of the rest of the product I am quite confident it will be fine.

good product, unfortunately the volume buttons no longer work. Amazon cant help, and cant get hold of manufacturer.

This is a perfect lightweight and compact bluetooth speaker. Does the job for what I need it for - just for when I take showers. Sound and reception are great. My phone stays in the bedroom and there are no issues w/ connecting. Well worth it in my opinion!

Ces devenu un indispensable sous la douche , bonne batterie , le son es clair et suffisamment fort
