the hp roar plus is available here for just £39.99
Mines going back due to it not being able to run off the mains without the battery dying.
Can the sumvision run off the mains with no problem?

Just received my sumvision this morning and was blown away by the sound, the reviews said it would be good but its outstanding, have had a kitsound boombar for a few years and thought it would be the same, no way,,:smiley: if I close my eyes it could be my Denon,,,, :smiley: the thing itself is very high quality, heavy as F*** , the only downside is the manual ,but thats being picky , to connect I just searched for it on my tablet found it and connected , ...easy peasy
Oh and it says handsfree calls in the manual, which I did not think it could do ?
Use Flubit and its just over £30 delivered.....

Exactly the same happened with mine, 30 mins in and died even though plugged in at time.
Leaving to charge overnight and retest again tomorrow

Does sound like a faulty one - sorry to hear that.
estjaydee seems to have had a better experience - hopefully you can return/exchange it easily enough

Thanks for the update - good to know, the HP is almost 40% cheaper (£25 vs £40) - but valuable info for those who have a bigger budget.

Received today. No where near as loud or deep in bass as Anker A3143 which I bought for £20 on Amazon sale

Mine also arrived today... have to say.. caught me by surprise at how good the sound is.. haven't experienced any of the problems that iamthegr81 has so far... sound quality is excellent for the price.

I got mine today.....only seems to work for about 30 minutes on a full charge! Must be faulty? :disappointed:
Also, the speaker was plugged in at the time. It turned itself off and is now charging again!
Just checked other reviews and it seems like a common problem.
Also, even in official description it says battery lasts 'upto' 8 hours at 60% volume.....but only 'upto' 4 hours at 100% volume!

No sure I quite understand but you can play music on your iPhone and listen to it on this speaker via bluetooth

I was debating the same thing myself as I was looking to buy one of the two for my nephew's birthday. I do have the Anker and the build quality is not bad at all. After watching a few youtube review videos of the Sumvision, it would seem that both speakers may share the same internals. I think I would go with the Anker as it has a sturdy rubber platform that it sits on.
Also this is £27.06 on Amazon. No price history though.
Edit: Hot enough for me, just bought one anyway.

I haven't tried out Sumvision, but have the Anker and I can tell you that Anker is awesome. But honestly the sumvision one has slightly better reviews (4.8 against 4.7) and I think you would not be disappointed with any of the 2 or even the HP of this post and HP is cheapest of the three.
Loving the fact these are a lot cheaper than the hp employee store which is meant to be 30% off public prices

Will this work with a OnePlus 2?
adsham to iamthegr81
25 Apr 16#11
I'm sure it would - this works off bluetooth which the OnePlus2 has - it's NFC which the OnePlus2 lacks as I understand.

Please try to listen, it might surprise you. I've got one during Easter deals, in my opinion they are great and match with the audio quality of speakers that costs triple. Please note that they are not bass heavy (in my opinion).

Think the Anker was more powerful - 20 W vs 15 W
Anker less warranty - 18 month vs 24 month
Battery the same - 8 hours (although 12 hours for Roar Plus)
HP is cheaper £25 vs £39.99
