Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First off, these are amazing sounding speakers when paired as a set. I have been looking for a set of waterproof Bluetooth speakers that I can put around the pool and wouldn't break the bank. I read the more critical reviews and was a little skeptical about buying this brand because of some of the reviews that pointed out issues with "Stop Charging," "Won't hold the Charge," and "Sound quality." I was sold on the customer service reviews and the company's backed product. I purchased with confidence. I ordered one at first but after reading more reviews, I order another the very next day. The speakers arrived two days later. The first thing I did was give both a full charge which took about two hours. The pairing is very simple (the instructions are on the bottom of the speaker when you unpackage it); 1. You have to shut your Bluetooth off in your phone. 2. Power on both speakers. 3. Press the Volume Up and Volume Down at the same time on one of the speakers. 4. Turn On the Bluetooth on your phone and select AOMAIS. That's it. I tried it with my wife's iPhone 8 and my Galaxy 8S, works great. I set the speakers on the edge of the pool about 12 feet apart. The sound is in stereo. When you have the speakers at pool edge level, the sound is incredible as it carries outside. I stayed in the pool for over an hour listening to music. The sound is extremely loud at 100% and the neighbors can hear them. I keep the sound level around 50%. As for bass, it does the job. If you're looking for some kind of heavy bass, this is not your speaker and you will likely be paying a few hundred dollars for that setup. The Bluetooth range in my yard is good up to around 40 feet and maybe a little more. My wife was very impressed and we both agreed that the sound is way better than our portable Bose. That say's a lot. The speakers feel sold and are good quality. I purchased the protective speaker sling cover for these speakers (one green and one orange). although the speakers weigh less than 2 lbs, it's nice to have handles so you carry them or hook them up. Note: I ordered one Green speaker and one Orange Speaker, just know, the buttons arrangements are different on the green from the orange speaker - not a big deal. I can not speak to the how long the charge will hold but I did run both for 7 hours. I will run them until they actually stop before I recharge them. I have had four different portable Bluetooth speakers, you will have a hard time finding a Bluetooth speaker that is of this quality and sound at this price. My wife and I are happy that we made this purchase.
