BOGASINGBluetooth Speakers, M5 Portable Wireless Speaker with 40W Loud Stereo Sound & Punchy Bass, 30H Playtime, IPX7 Waterproof, Bluetooth 5.3, EQ, TWS, TF-Card, AUX, USB, for Outdoor Home Shower

For such a small cheap unit the bass and volume are great. Bass mode makes it sound a bit muddy but the 3D mode is good. At the price point of $40 I don’t think any other bt speakers offer the same power. Very portable too.I was looking around and considered the sound core flare 2, flip 6, and wonder boom units but decided on this.

Good

I left this outside at the beginning of winter in Connecticut and just found it outside…in March. And it still works and even has some charge. I felt obligated to come on here and write a review.

With technology updating as much as it does, this is a great little speaker for those of us who fight with updated tech!I have purchased four of these and here is my long feedback on them.Good Points: If you are totally blind like me, the buttons are marked great. There are seven different buttons. First there is the off and on button that is closest to the charging side, which I will get into after the buttons. It is a round button with some sort of design on it. You push and hold, and it plays a sound, letting you know it is on. Push and hold again to turn it off. Next set of buttons are the play, skip forward and back buttons, and the volume up and down buttons. The skip and volume buttons are all itty bitty arrows, and the play which is in the center, I'm thinking it may be a square, can't tell, but they all work great. Last, there is a sound setting button that looks similar to the on and off button. It has three settings for your sound, I think light base, heavy, and maybe none... Not sure on the exacts, I just pick what sounds good to me and leave it. Then, you have the charging side. Now, this speaker looks like, a long rectangular box I suppose. The four long sides are the top with the buttons, the bottom with little itty bitty feet, and then, the other sides are the speakers. The ends of the box are the two short sides. One short side has nothing on it, I just use it to set my speaker up and it seems to sound a bit better. The other side, has a little flap that you pull down and you find your ports. It has the charging port, a slot for a memory card, a USB port for a flash or thumb drive and I think there is an AUX port as well... I have used the USB and memory card slots, and they work perfectly. The sound is just great for a speaker that size, and this little baby has bluetooth as well.Not So Good: Very small not goods about this speaker, but, I must mention them anyway. First, it hurts that such a great speaker doesn't include a feature to skip back or forward so many tracks, or even to jump to the end or beginning of your music list. So, if you are like me, and you make a list of like 300 or 400 songs, it really bites having to press the back button 275 times just to get back to the song you want to hear. Second, take care with this water proof characteristic. The first one I bought was for me. My 4YO took over it, once I popped in a memory card with all his favorite songs. So yes, even a 4YO can operate and enjoy this speaker. Anyhow, the first time it was left outside, and it just happened to pour down rain. I thought my speaker baby was ruined for sure! Oh but did it surprise me when it got brought in the next day, I lightly tapped on it to get a little extra water out, and pushed the on button, and we started jamming! I thought this little thing was incredible. Well, it just happened to be left out in the rain another time. This time, the flap that guards the ports was left open just a little little bit. Unfortunately, the rain got in and ruined the memory card port and the memory card. Up side of it all, the USB, bluetooth feature and the battery charging ports all still worked, so I gave it to my husband, because he uses the bluetooth only, so worked for him. The second one I ordered was supposed to be for my husband, but we traded for the damaged speaker. Until my 4YO dropped it off the table by mistake, and both the speaker covers popped off, and I couldn't fix it. Doesn't really care, and we still use it. As my 4YO took over the second speaker, and my husband has the damaged speaker, I ordered a third for me, and a fourth for my mom who was impressed when my 4YO was jamming when we went to visit.So, with all that being said, I have a love/like for these speakers, with more love than like, and I just brush off the heartbreak of the missing features.Really hope this long winded review helps anyone deciding on if they want to purchase this speaker or not.Happy Jamming!

This item is sturdy aesthetically pleasing and the sound is great. I’m not sure how long the battery lasts charged I just got. I would purchase again. Solid purchase. If anything changes I will update post

A fairly decent product, it offers good battery life at medium volumes, and decent sound quality on both sides.It is not powerful enough and at maximum volume the bass is lost so the declared 40W are not real.Equalizer to be improved because in one case it cuts almost all the bass, in another instead it cuts almost all the high tones (so it does not emphasize the bass).Good build quality and water resistance (tested only in the shower)If you find it at a price of about 35 max 40$ it is worth buying it, otherwise you can find better.

I use primarily to play MO3 files from a flash derive. I found it easy to use and the sound was great.

I have a pair of indoor BT with TF/uSD card stereo speaker but they're only good for a single room. I wanted a more robust pair for indoor/outdoor use. These are ideal. They have 4 audio inputs; BT, USB Flash Drive, TF/uSD card, and an AUX input. I connected them all simultaneously and scrolled through the 4 sources without any issues. I have a 16G uSD card with 1,400 songs as my go to choice. The sound is terrific and plenty loud in the outdoors. The TWS mode pairs easily and works with all inputs. They sound great and have excellent BT connection range, indoors and out. The super bass mode is awesome when playing at low volumes and the 3D mode is my preference when the volume goes up. With duplicate speakers on both sides of each speaker, the sound is pretty much directed everywhere, 360°. There's plenty of battery life. The user interface is very clean. I did test the speaker phone feature, that I won't use, and it works fine however my built-in microphone pickup is pretty weak. I'm sure I'll get years of enjoyment out these portable yet powerful 40W speakers.Update: Undocumented Stereo featuresWhen using a single M5, the dual 20W speakers play in stereo. The speaker on the + volume side plays the left stereo channel and on the + volume side plays the right stereo channel.And when using dual M5 speakers in TWS mode, the M5 with the audio source plays the left stereo channel.
