S3505 Wireless Bluetooth Speaker with Bold Sound, Kvadrat Speaker Fabric, Up to 10 Hours Playtime, IPX7 Waterproof, Shower Ready, Small Size, Gray

Rich sound, great value.

This speaker is a great value. It has good sound quality and can get loud if you want it to. Best part is that you can bind to multiple computers at once. I have two desktop computers sharing this speaker wirelessly without having to re-bind them. The only downside is that after 15 minutes of not being used, the speaker turns off and I don't see any way to keep it on. Even while powered from the wall it shuts off after 15 minutes of inactivity. To get around that I play some very low volume music in a loop from one of the computers.

This is an amazing speaker, truly. I have some qualms about it, but nothing that’s going to take a star away. Sometimes the sound for audiobooks aren’t as good as my Jteman phone stand speaker. But, overall, this is far superior of a speaker. It can be cumbersome to have to carry around when I want to just travel around from one room to another. But for audiobooks, let me say, this book does NOT cut out ANY PARTS of the story. IF I’m going back to relisten to a part, it’s because I lost focus on what was said. Easy to do like right now when I’m listening to my newest story, and writing up this review. I could loose a detail or two. I LOVE that I can just turn the speaker on and hit play. I forgot just HOW MUCH I loved it. I had a Tidbit, but regardless that I hadn’t used to speaker except for a few times in the first year, and then set it aside and forgot about it because it was purchased as my outdoor speaker. And I got too sick to be able to HAVE that “outdoor life” that I had had when I purchased the speaker. The speaker last year went “bad.” And when reaching out to the company over it. I was told the plug was bad, and could get a 10% discount on a new one. I was thinking WHY would I want to buy a NEW one when I didn’t even get a LIFE of a YEAR out of the other one?! No! Not worth the money. So I bought the Jteman while I looked into what one I really wanted to replace that speaker. I am not one to like to have to waste good products, so I forgot to ever replace it. Until my son asked me for a speaker. I was like, YES! So, back to the search I went. Now having experience with two different kinds, I had a MUCH better idea of what I wanted. I began to compare battery life because the Jteman was having to be charged nightly. I listen to my stories for HOURS in a day. So I wanted at LEAST 12 hours, if not longer. I began looking into what the IPSX vs IP67 and all of those were since I was seeing it everywhere. Wanting to know what the difference was. Still not 100% sure IF the waterproof/ dustproof is better. But for me, it seems like it would be. In all the speakers in all its fashions that I’ve seen they seem to say, “waterproof” but then have BIG warnings about HOW the water should be used around the speaker. This one wasn’t AS cautious, and I assume that’s because if the water gets on it, it’s nothing. You just shouldn’t submerge it beyond a certain point for too long. Not an intention for me anyways, but knowing that SHOULD my clumsy self or sons spill water on it, it’s NOT death by cup. The next amazing detail to love, this battery life is 24 hours. I’ve been listening to my audiobooks about 12 hours I believe, and I STILL have two bars left on the battery. I charged it up on Sunday and began listening THAT NIGHT as I went to bed. That’s an AMAZING BATTERY LIFE! I keep THINKING I should be charging it because I mean, our phones we have to. Our other devices we often HAVE to at SUCH a frequent rate, but here’s something used equally as long, and it’s STILL filled with charge! This is what you want in a power outage! That’s for sure! The watts of the speaker, which is NOT something I’d REALLY EVER paid attention to before. But thank you Fender for YOUR speaker for drawing my attention to a larger watt speaker! I didn’t REALIZE there was SUCH a difference. I mean, I began comparing them, even going back to my Tidbit and seeing what IT have on Jteman. Then looking at SkullCandy, and JBL speakers, and that Fender one. I mean you think ten isn’t large, but then suddenly you see how some are only TWO, most sitting at four! Fender eight watts. This speaker has 40 watts. I get suspicious of course! So I look into OTHER speakers. There ARE 60 watt speakers, so it’s NOT far fetched for a 40 watt speaker to exist. The impressive thing, is that these are in Bose Speakers and others like it, and ALL that over the $150 mark! This one is $80 right now, selling for $85 other times. I mean, it feels like a steal. Here’s an amazing “hat trick” you can set up multiple speakers with just the hit of a button, and have impressive surround sound. OR you can link it to multiple devices and pick and choose the devices to play through the device at any one time. In all the speakers I’ve had in the past, it’s always been where you have to deselect a speaker from the Bluetooth list, and then reselect it from a new device. I won’t lie that I wish when I’m resting, and coming out of haze of sleep. When I want to keep my eyes closed, but have some audio of some kind. But NOT have to root around electronics in order to fuss with it. Or MOVE too much to manage getting it going. Having a remote to just get it going, would be AMAZING! But, I mean, it’s so waterproof, I don’t know how a remote could be effective? I mean, there is NOTHING to take away. So WHY the four out five? Well, there ARE reviews that mention how some of the speakers don’t connect, or won’t play any sounds. Unfortunately, I had one that was a dud. It was clearly connected to my phone. I have the noise levels on my phone turned on. I have hearing loss, and so it’s a good recommendation. So I could see the sound moving up and down, seeing it go from green to yellow as it would from any normal story being read. I connected it to other devices, but no luck. It was just defective. I contacted Philips, but they said I’d have to pay to get it repaired, and since it was just a day old, so they suggested reaching out to the seller. Which was Amazon, and they were AMAZING at helping me get this taking care of. I got a new one next day, and it works EXACTLY how you’d expect it to. So I figured one star for the inconvenience of it all was a fair review. But trust when I say, HAD that ONE DUD speaker NOT been in my life. This would be a complete 5/5. This is an amazing speaker, and VERY happy that I got it! IF you bang it, drop it, it’s fairly kid and clumsy person safe! And for ME, that’s an investment worth having! I don’t want to spend $80 and then have to walk around like I have a vase in my arms. This is industrious! And glad to have it! I thought the way the strap goes on, that CRAP, it will slide undone, but NOT TRUE. It’s kept in place as I’ve had to SWING it around my body MANY of times at night so I can get packed up to travel from one area to another! It’s not come loose yet. So though it’s NOT QUITE been a week into FULLY OWNING, considering the HOURS I’ve put into listening. I’m sold! I’m ready to go sell this to someone as something to invest in! Video’s sound is taken at half way up.

Easy to connect, sound quality is really good for the price. I'm happy with it.

This was a great little speaker -- while it lasted. However, after less than 5 months of use the sound became extremely distorted, especially at higher volumes. Trying to get Philips to do anything is practically impossible. When you finally find a Customer Support phone number nobody wants to answer. On the rare occasion that someone does answer, more often than not they end up hanging up on you (and I have NOT been disrespectful!). The first time someone actually helped me she told me that the case had not been assigned to anybody (this was 11 days after I had received an email telling me that I would receive a response within 24-48 hours). She assigned the case and I received an email that evening requesting TONS of information. I responded to that email and received an email stating "Your email will not be read and no case will be created." Many more attempts to call into support went unanswered or, when answered, dropped. Eventually a gentleman did answer and apologized, stating that their systems were being upgraded and telling me that I would receive a reply once the upgrade was completed. I'm not holding my breath! After nearly 6 months of effort I am close to getting some sort of resolution. But they want me to ship the defective unit back to them at my expense (company policy is apparently to not issue return labels). Then they will only issue a refund, not replace the unit. Oh, and they require you to utilize the "attached" RMA form -- but fail to attach any such form! All of their support people (and I have talked to LOTS) work remotely and most have horrible setups, meaning you can barely hear or understand them. They continually ask you to send the same things over and over again. Then once someone tells you that they've finally received everything (like the 12 different pictures I've sent), they tell you that's too much and to just resubmit a certain two (plus resubmit your proof of purchase, of which they already have multiple copies)! So, if you are a masochist, by all means purchase from Philips! If you are a more normal person buy some other brand -- ANY other brand!

Excellent little speaker. Good battery life, nice sound, good price. What's not to love?

The threads aren't as I would have liked.

Excelente fidelidad

Mi primer opción era una JBL charge, un compañero de trabajo tiene una y al escuchar como sonaba la busqué, pero debido al costo y a mi limitado dinero opté por esta opción, y la verdad resultó mejor, un precio relativamente económico, buen bajo y claridad de sonido, quizá no sea tan extremadamente fuerte, pero si quieres usarla para tu día a día es tu mejor opción, buena batería y la calidad del material es buena

na categoria 30w ele realmente é “baixo” em comparação as vozes dos cantores, mas, um equalizador para ajustar fica alto. Som muito cristalino, graves e subgraves presentes, e se você preza por qualidade a philips em geral tem propriedade para isso. Não tive arrependimentos em questão da compra, bateria surreal.

Excelente producto, lo malo es que se me cayó y dejo de tener buen sonido. Yo arruiné mi bocina. Sean cuidadosos con ella, tiene excelentes bajos.

Venía cazando la oferta en este articulo, lo compré en $740 pesos, una super oferta y sorpresa, no decepcionó. La calidad del audio es increíble, además del volumen y el acabado de los materiales. Una autentica belleza, combina perfecto con mi setup. El único punto negativo fue que en un extremo de la caja venía maltratada. Todo lo demás es un 10/10. LO RECOMIENDO.

Its very bad product.. naver order it anyone.. after 2 month its not working properly.. sound is very bad
