3 out of 5 eggsSo so...

Pros: Works! Does Bluetooth connection as well as mini audio jack connection. Battery lasts a long time. Voice sounds are clear.

Cons: Bass is almost missing. Nearly drowned out by the voices. Overall music enjoyment thus suffers.

1 out of 5 eggsDo not Recommend

Pros: Sound is decent as expected for the price point. Bluetooth works great at short distances. Small and portable.

Cons: -Bluetooth cut in and out if signal was more than 12' away
-Speakers stopped producing sound 25 days after first use and only was used a few times.
-Newegg will not replace the product even though I assume I just received a "bad egg" I hope all are not as defective.

Other Thoughts: I make a large amount of purchases from newegg and have for almost a decade now if not longer. My returns or replacements have been very few and being a few days past the 30 since the purchase date I am at a loss for words. Disappointed in you newegg guess I can go put that silver premier card to work at the big box store at least I get 90 days to return any purchase there.

3 out of 5 eggsMore cons than pros

Pros: (1) Small and light-weight.

(2) Does what it is supposed to do, i.e., receives and plays audio from a blue tooth enabled (A2DP profile) device.

Cons: (1) Connection range is very limited. Although it is advertised to have a range of up to 33 feet, it is probably half that at best, especially when not in line of sight. Primarily because of this I settled on the Logitech Z515 which costs about the same, but has much better range (at least 40 feet with no line of sight issues).

(2) The sound quality is unimpressive. This is probably due to the size of the drivers (less than 2 inches). Although I liked the small form factor, the sacrifice in the richness of the sound was not worth it. Although not as good as the more expensive speakers out there, I found the Z515 speaker, with its larger 2 inch drivers, to sound noticeably better than the BluNote.

(3) There are some very annoying design features. As mentioned by other reviewers, the flashing blue light is annoying, but can easily be covered with a piece of black electrical tape. Another major annoyance is the sound settings. When you turn the unit on, the sound is extremely low, so you have to turn the volume up to be able to here the audio. However, when you turn the unit off, the tones signalling that the unit is powering down are very loud because you had to turn up the volume initially. This is a major flaw and should be fixed by the Spracht engineers. One solution would simply be to have no tones when the unit is shutting off. However, the sound level when the unit first begins to play should also be fixed.

(4) As mentioned by other reviewers, the base boost and stereo widening don't have much of an effect, which is not surprising for such a small speaker. These features seem to be a bit of a gimmick.

Other Thoughts: Conclusion: If the most important thing to you is small size and wireless operation, and your phone will never be too far away from the unit, the Blunote may be a viable option. However, if you want decent sound with some richness to it, and you want the ability to listen to the speaker with your phone in another room, you should pass on the BluNote.

3 out of 5 eggsMeh.

Pros: Small. Volume is pretty good and pairing is easy. Also looks pretty good.

Cons: Sound quality is middling at best. Doesn't compare to the slightly more expensive options from Logitech and Soundfreaq. No built-in rechargeable batter either - you need to supply your own.

Other Thoughts: Not terrible, but if you care much about sound quality look elsewhere.

4 out of 5 eggsPretty good radio

Pros: I was looking for a radio i can put in my bathroom that doesnt take up much realestate on my counter. This thing is perfect for listening to music while my wife and I are getting ready in the morning. Small and sounds good as long as you keep the volume low. Connects to my phone automatically when turned on.

Cons: The volume resets when you turn it off, so every morning when i turn it on and my phone connects to hit, i have to turn the volume up on it. If the volume is to high, the music is distorted heavily, but when it is that high, it really is loud. No one should have the volume up that high.

Other Thoughts: I wish there was a simple connect/disconnect button on it. While my phone is connected to it, everything transfers to these speakers. so if i can a call while connected i have to turn it off to disconnect and use my phone. Also, i have to turn it off if i dont want to listen to it anymore. if there was a disconnect button instead of turning it off, this would alleviate the auto volume and problem and using the phone. all in all, ive learned to live with it and adapted.

3 out of 5 eggsOK

Pros: This is an ok spreaker for the price. I got it connected (with a wire) to my laptop

Cons: I couldn't get it to work via bluetooth on my laptop. I tried and tried to no avail.

Other Thoughts: I'm not an audiophile, all I wanted was a decent bluetooth speaker to play some music at the office. I got bluetooth headset to work, but I couldn't get this speaker to work... Strange.

4 out of 5 eggsJust OK

Pros: Pairs easily with devices.

Cons: Distorts significantly when volume is turned up. I'm only knocking off one star because I got it at a very good price.

Other Thoughts: I've tried both wired and Bluetooth connections, with a desktop computer, tablet, and smartphone, and I get distortion whenever I give it any volume. It isn't as noticeable when watching a movie, but you can really hear it when playing music.

5 out of 5 eggsPleased

Pros: Pretty loud. Good for the hard of hearing. Easy to set up, provided you already have bluetooth. Using it with a computer, it kept playing more than 40 feet away even through a wall.

Cons: It sounds a bit tinny, but better than you'd expect from speakers this small.

Other Thoughts: This is an excellent item for anyone who has a laptop computer that isn't loud enough. I didn't try it with any other hardware.

4 out of 5 eggsExcellent for streaming talk radio from a phone

Pros: Sync's easily, nice and loud, nicely compact and portable, runs on standard AA batteries if you're not near an outlet

Cons: Fidelity is ok for talk radio, but don't expect high fidelity for music from 1.5" (approx) speakers.

Other Thoughts: I use this to stream internet talk radio from my phone. Makes it nice and loud if I need to. Perfect for the application I intended.

3 out of 5 eggsJust OK

Pros: Small. Pairs easily with BT devices. Reestablishes BT connection easily. Ability to make/receive phone calls. AC adapter and 4 batteries included. Packing is great. Super-fast delivery by NewEgg.

Cons: Cheap plastic feeling. "Bass-boost" useless. "Stereo-widening" does not work. Basically, this speaker sounds like mono receiver. Volume rocker feels like is really poor quality. Another really annoying "feature" is constantly blinking blue "ring of annoyance". I had to paint it over, otherwise, it would be really distracting...

Other Thoughts: This item is not worth full retail price. If you can get it at a deep discount, great, otherwise its not worth it. I use my device at work, for that purpose it works great with my phone's music player.
