TaoTronics Bluetooth Speaker Waterproof with suction cup (Bluetooth 3.0, handsfree, integrated microphone, A2DP / AVRCP) (Electronics)

Customer Review

In the past, I was allowed to test some waterproof Bluetooth speaker. One thing that all devices in common: they are technically sound not so moody like normal Bluetooth speakers and they are all advertised as waterproof, although it correctly should read water resistant.

Unlike other models, see this water-repellent Bluetooth speaker quite noble. His black plastic housing is matt. Consequently, the device is hardly prone to fingerprints and water spots. The large suction cup on the back is almost as wide as the unit itself. The suction cup holds bombproof on smooth tiles. So far he has not fallen off the wall and as hard as he actually sticks, you can tell if you have to pull him to the brushing time.

Before the actual start of the speaker is connected to the smartphone or tablet. This is done via Bluetooth. The speaker is turned on, the smartphone or tablet device should now be visible. Are speakers and Tablet or Smartphone connected, played music will be played through the loudspeaker. In conjunction with a Smartphone also calls with the Speaker now can be put. The loudspeaker can therefore be used as a speakerphone. A microphone is naturally integrated in the device.

In the shower singing with musical accompaniment, thanks to the Bluetooth speakers is made possible. It's really a great thing, the music in the shower, instead of listening through a glass wall. Yes, that really makes a difference.

As already indicated, the sound could settle only in midfield. I suspect that the design of this water repellent Bluetooth Speaker is responsible. Finally, they should withstand high humidity. Sorry, rattles something anyway that's for my experience, because I know a lot of other normal Bluetooth speakers that the sound is much better (but not to the water-repellent part). Nevertheless, should not be spoken of poor sound here. Callers are actually super understood and what is even spoken, is also used for other in the line of good, you do not yelling.

The two arrow buttons are used twice by the way. You either pressed briefly or held a little longer, so that adjusting the volume or moves the unit to the next / last title.

If the range is 10 meters are shown (reception between smartphone and speakers). Yes, that would just work as long as no concrete wall is between them, which of course severely limits the range. It's also a bit stupid when the smartphone is also exposed to the high humidity, but remains difficult to prevent.

Could convince the battery life, which extends over several hours. As long as he holds exactly, can be expressed in hours hardly. At least I'm not as long in the shower to be able to assess it accurately; o)

Charged is using the supplied USB charging cable and a separate power supply. In a few hours the speaker is fully charged.

After the small speakers now hangs a few weeks in our bathroom and has to withstand 3 times daily showers, I'm really pleased. Sure, get off the sometimes full shower spray, but that really does not seem to harm him. Just submerge which should be avoided. Who can do without taking a shower in a hyper brilliant sound experience, and satisfied with a normal sound is, is this unit have great joy.

Have fun singing and performing in the shower (yes makes music a lot more fun) ...
