Buy In Pairs For Compact, Portable Stereo
These really are great little speakers for interested, frugal, music devotees. The battery life is respectable even when you play them at full volume. I usually get about 5 hours of battery life when I turn them up to 11. The sound is clear at most volume levels and is even; meaning, there is not too much or too little bass/treble. If you buy two speakers, you can pair them together to get stereo sound. That is separate sounds coming from the "left channel" and separate sounds coming from the "right channel". They are not just stereo-izing a mono source. When you listen to "Whole Lotta Love", as a simple demonstration, you will hear the music fade from left to right. If there are any other small, Bluetooth speakers that also do this for less than $50 each, please tell me. They will take some abuse also. I have dropped them from a short height a few times and no damage is apparent. The range is also impressive. I have walked with my iPhone at least 100 feet away from the speakers many times and they remain paired. I routinely place the speakers about 80 feet apart to spread the sound around me while playing hockey. They easily pair, disconnect and pair again with my iPhone, Android tablet, and laptop. You will not regret buying two of these speakers if you want hours of portable, wireless, stereo sound music wherever you go. I will say, though, that I have had my speakers for a little less than two years and they seem to have lost their range to connect to each other somehow. I have not solved the reason why. They still work perfectly when the speakers are about 10 feet apart but when that distance grows, most times there is some interference and the speakers' broadcast is very erratic. I am buying another pair to replace these but disappointed nonetheless that something is the matter with my first pair after less than two years' use.

This is not a 4+ star speaker!
This is a small speaker so don't expect a lot of bass, just treble. The sound quality is good, but it is not a 4+ star speaker. Bose, Creative, or JBL are examples of high quality Bluetooth speakers. I now know I can't trust customer reviews for speakers, because it seems like high ratings are the norm, and they can't all be that good. I was very disappointed with this purchase, I'll keep it around for streaming video on my tablet, but it won't be used to listen to music. Now I will purchase a speaker worthy of a high rating, and unfortunately that won't cost less than $40, but I listen to music daily and it'll be worth the extra money!

Terrible battery life
I took a chance on this one thinking it would be good sound and battery life. Plus it has the micro SD card slot.The sound quality was ok. The play from the micro SD card feature wasn't worth it as the navigation is extremely limited. But the deal killer on this was the battery life. They claim up to 24 hours. It is no where near that. How does the speaker go from 60% to 20% over night with it turned off?I returned the Vanzon speaker and bought a Oontz Angle 3 Ultra.I do not recommend the Vanzon x5.

Adequate sound quality, but a bit of a disappointment.
I bought this speaker after reading all the glowing reviews, and I'm a little disappointed in the sound. It doesn't sound as rich as a comparably priced Altec Lansing speaker I bought a few years ago. That was very impressive! I like the look and feel of the Vanzon speaker...it seems to be made of high quality materials and has some weight to it. It was easy to set up and easy to operate. I just wish it sounded better.

Best bang for your buck and waterproof!!
Great speaker. Sound quality is on par with the elite speakers. Haven’t tested how waterproof it is. I do wish it was easier to switch between Bluetooth devices. You have to delete it from your device just to connect to a different device which is much more difficult than other speakers I’ve had. All in all, an amazing speaker for the price.**Update: after have this speaker for a year I can say that this is the best budget speaker I have ever had. It even rivals the JBL. I was most impressed with this speaker when it was accidentally left in a water cooler for an ENTIRE NIGHT without anyone noticing. Found it the next morning, started it up, and played music right away!!

Clear speakers w/ great volume.
Considering I didn't need a set of speakers that were too fancy and were loud but portable, this is absolutely the best bang for your buck! There was a little lag the first three seconds I used it but now there is no lag at all. The bass is excellent too and the volume can go up to be very loud! Very satisfied with my purchase and will be taking it outdoors with me! It is loud enough to be even used at a small pool party. I absolutely hate when speakers aren't clear even when they get loud and this speaker is crystal clear even at the loudest setting!

very impressive
ok let me start by saying this speaker will not disappoint you. the sound super clear, mids and high crisp and low super clean and just perfect for the size. i own over 50 Bluetooth speakers. for the price range none comes lose. to compare it with the tribit go for the almost the same price. ill pick this one all the way. much louder and heavy well build. trust me buy one or two. just bought a second one to pair as TWS and its works and sound like a cream. its really hard to believe speaker that small can produce such good sound.

12/5/19 30 days in, so far, so good (watch for updates)
I shopped for lots of options, could not see spending the money for a BOSE, or other Named Brand speaker. Actually ordered some different speakers, at least 2, and they were not as good as expected. After reading reviews on this one, gave it a try. So far, it's been pretty good. I won't lie, it does not sound as good as a BOSE, but it sounds pretty darn good. Used in larger room and volume and quality was fine. If you are in the market, give it a try
