Auvisio: masterpiece with little flaws.

General: About the quality of the goods offered by PEARL, one can argue, but with this music cube is a masterpiece auvisio succeeded. The design of the cube is more than successful. The music playback is, considering its small speaker (3 cm) voluminous, strong and powerful sound. In addition, one hears no clink, even at a high volume.

Radio: The cube already comes with a charged battery, so you can get started right away. Turn the cube, antenna pull out and go on radio. Immediately start the cube auto search. The cube has 30 memory locations. For me, the reception is very good. Should one be poor radio reception, so you just push it further a few cm.

The cube has except the radio nor the connection options for a mini SD card and a USB flash drive. The batteries are recharged using the enclosed cable to the PC.

Since the Cube has an active speaker and a Line IN input, you may also refer to the PC (or mobile phone ...) Connect the speakers. The necessary cable for this is also included.

Due to its compact size, you can take him about all you go.

The only negative is the battery life. This is given as 10 hours. But this is just a pipe dream of auvisio and has nothing to do with reality. The battery life depends in part on how high the volume is. Keep the battery capacity, in volume setting "12/13" approx. 3 hours and at volume "9-10" 5-6 hours. The charging time for empty battery is approximately 2 hours. Why this absurd way the LED indicator lights, the secret of the manufacturer remains.

Scratch: The casing is made partly of plastic in piano-lacquer look. This is of course very easily prone to scratches. Unfortunately, the Cube has no "feet" on which you can turn it off. By slipping on the ground can thus very quickly become scratched.

Display: only the track number are unfortunately in the MP3 songs on the display. So neither folders nor song credits.

Because of the false indication of battery life, a star deduction.
