It was a moment that it tempted me, so I'm delighted to finally have one! For AmazonBasics product, I think it's great. Although this rectangular shape is not one I would have chosen at first, this mini speaker I really like. Its metallic blue color is pretty neat. We see only a facade in the picture, but the sound comes from both sides. It is based on four "feet" non-slip and is therefore stable. It beeps when turned on or when it is off. Pairing was simple and immediate as well with my phone (HTC) with my Macbook. The sound is impressive when you see the small size of the enclosure. I know it has nothing, but I was pleasantly surprised. This speaker can also serve as mini speaker for mobile phone and it is possible to playback pause then resume. The off and on again does not lose the pairing is appreciable. The top would have been to add a USB jack to connect an mp3;) A great product!
