For the deal price of just a little over £13, this is value for money and surprisingly well made. No cheap plastics but a nice aluminium body. Sound quality as a speaker is surprising good for its dimunitive size, a sharp crisp sound with no noticeable distortion or buzz, the bass is good enough for the size. Gimmicky flashing lights can be switched off easily enough. Sound is good from this speaker. I wasnt expecting to be wowed, just wanted something functional for when i am camping. I bought the easyacc speaker case to hold it in too — so glad i did as the speaker has coloured lights which dont switch off , and are a little annoying when its dark. The case has a mesh top so sound quality is good when in the case, so now i dont have to bear the annoying lights. If anyone knows how to switch them off, or to turn the volume down on the woman giving instructions, do let me know :. I must confess i had reservations about purchasing a cheap, mono speaker, but it seemed like a good travel solution and was pleasantly surprised though at how good this was. The volume output is more than you would ever need for a hotel room etc and surprisingly for the size of the speaker, the sound is never muffled. Audiophile it is not but is still extremely acceptable. At three times the price, this would still be good value for money. The bluetooth connectivity did work though. I got around three hours out of it at full volume. This product has good audio for its size and plenty of functions, pairing with your phone is very easy, although pairing a second device requires disconnecting the first one. Loud voice response with heavy chinese accent to your selections, which cannot be disabled. Volume always resets itself. They probably regret that now. However, i bought this for my car as a hands free device but the mic is very poor and ultimately, not fit for purpose. Seems like a well made item and nice to look at. The after sales service from betron though is very poor. Had an issue which i hoped they would help with. Wrote an email to them and got no reply. Wrote a second email, got a reply, but useless, like a lot companies today, they obviously do not read the message sent properly. Wrote a third time and got no reply useless after sales service. On arrival i did not think it would do what i wanted it to do. The sound, is totally awesome. I will be purchasing one for my daughter as she loves it too. If you use it at night, the prompts can wake you up. I have mailed the manufactories and they are going to pass the comment onto their developers. Other than that it is a good product imo. Great sound from a neat little unit which is heavier than you expect so feels substantial despite small size. It makes a good sound but not very loud just quite loud but good enough for what i want it for. Its not going to be loud enough for a big party or where there is a lot of background noise but if you want to do that buy a bose but for a fraction of the price this is a good little unit for travel. I am very impressed with the sound clarity on this compact bluetooth speaker. One to pair up with my echo dot in the kitchen as i feel it has superior sound quality in comparison. The other one i intend to pair up with my amazon fire tablet while i use my currently purchased one as an extension speaker for my laptop. An awesome little speaker at more than a fair price in my opinion. Absolutely brilliantly little speaker. Lights up different colours when music is playing. I have compared it with a more expensive bluetooth speaker that was 99 pounds and you do notice a quality difference. It is surprisingly small but works really well and has a noticeable bass as well. This thing is the the closest thing to actual magic i have ever seen. I did not expect a lot, just wanted a wireless speaker to play music. I charged it up for a bit, looked for it in the settings in my iphone, clicked on it and it immediately played music from my phone really beautifully while sitting in the palm of my hand. The sound quality for such a small and easy to use device is very impressive. Update: it connects to my mac too. I can now listen to music wirelessly anywhere in my very small home. This speaker is a solid weighty product designed and manufactured to the highest quality with a finish without blemish. The sound quality for its size is commensurate or better than some speakers of a larger nature. Sadly i returned this item due to it not having the bluetooth range that i was looking for. It stated ten meters but after five meters it lost its connectivity. Overall though a great solid product and recommended and if kept close by to your proposed bluetooth tie up then you can expect great sounds and satisfaction. This a great little speaker and agree with other reviews that sound is very goodi have tested it with a samsung galaxy s2 , tesco hudl and an ostech tablet with no problem on any of the devices. As stated in other reviews the voice announcing each mode as they are selected via the mode button is very loud and very annoying can anybody hack this it to turn it off. It does seem though that from some of the reviews people are annoyed as they are continually changing modes but i wonder why. This is true when in bluetooth mode but when using the micro sd card the volume is controlled using the plus and minus buttons on the device. One slight shortcoming is there is no indication of the level of battery charge, the speaker just suddenly switches off when the battery becomes empty. I leave it plugged in when using it if possible though on battery it lasts several hours on a full chargei have found that sometimes i need to go into the controlling device and press the speaker name in the list of bluetooth devices before it will connect even if it was paired previously this seems to be true if the speaker has been previously connected to a different device. Mostly it just connects when it senses the device. Amazing sound from such a tiny speaker. Easy to pair with a phone- clear sound and lasts quite a few hours on a full charge. We only discovered after the party that although you can adjust the volume with the phone, you can make it louder on the actual speaker. I was really impressed with this little speaker. The sound quality is really good. On a wooden table really gives a nice quality to the music. You can go a good distance from the speaker with your phone and it just carrys on. Only cuts out when walking through doorways if you have thick walls. But not to botherd as long as the sound is good. Great gadget — produces good sound so now we can listen to our music on the go. So far just in the garden but you can charge it up and take it anywhere with you. Links to your phone by bluetooth without problems. Nice and loud — turn your phone to maximum sound and then you can use the betron controls to get the required volume. Also has traditional fm radio and controls on the base if your phone is in your bag and you want to change to next or previous track. Apparently it can channel calls from your phone too but have yet to test that. Lights cycle through all different colours changing every couple of seconds or so. We love this and i would recommend it. It seems to work well and produces good quality sound. I know this would have annoyed me as it seems you cannot remove this feature. But thankfully the recipient finds it quite entertaning. I would recommend this based on functionality, plus it looks good and the light ring is pretty neat. This speaker does just what you want. Easy connectivity, linked easily with my phone and amazon echo and looks pleasingly like a mini version of that system. Loud enough for my neighbours to hear haha. For under £10, pretty good price and affordable so would recommend for someone that is on budget and thinking to upgrade later like me. Would give all 5 stars if there was an option to make the voice girl quieter when i turn the speaker on or change modes. Nothing is coming through my phone which kinda sucks.

The betron wireless speaker is solid and well made aluminium body, it comes with a combined charging and speaker jack, and reasonably concise instructions. The bluetooth connection could not have been easier. I like the coloured lights, very cool, and even when turned off the speaker has an attractive finish.

Material quality is excellent with matte finish. To check its sound quality, i tested it on various surfaces like metal, wooden, etc. I fell in love with this betron kbs-08 bluetooth speaker.
