Bad for video or computer sound playback
on January 5, 2015

Using bluetooth connection, the sound feels like almost a second delayed, which can be rather annoying when using it for video sound playback, as the sound and picture will be out of sync.
If the unit detects the source sound is unchanged for a certain amount of time it shuts the speaker sound off, and when it feels the source sound changes again it takes about a second for the speaker sound to turn back on. There is no way to disable this (not even while the unit is being charged) and it leads to annoying clipping of the sound. So avoid using it for unvarying sounds.
I miss a feature to make it automatically turn on/off at the same time as it is being plugged in/out of power source, so that it can turn on along with the sound player. Being a portal unit does not mean it should always be used that way.
Have been thinking about modifying it myself by taking out the electronics and use it as a passive speaker, as the speaker units inside deliver a nice and smooth sound... when they actually play something.
Considering the price tag, I think it gives little value for the money.

No connection with Mac Book Air

I bought it yesterday, works with my iPad & my Galaxy S4, but not with my Mac Book Air. It connects (sometimes), but it's not recognized as a "headset" and the music cannot be redirected to the JBL Charge 2.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought this speaker a week ago and am very pleased with the sound and battery life. the only thing i absolutely hate about it is that the bluetooth only goes about 2 feet and the music no longer plays.
I would recommend this to a friend!
