IF YOU ARE INTENDING TO USE THIS WITH YOUR ECHO DOT PLEASE READ POST #69
I've been looking for a 'do everything' portable speaker to go with my Echo Dot. I've tried the Sumvision Psyc Monic and the UE Boom 2 and they're both a bit meh so I was looking for something else to try.
I came across some reviews for this and they are pretty good, and most of the reviews are at £130+.
It's £79.99 on the Creative website with free delivery and there's also a charging dock thrown in for free which retails at £49.99.
5% TCB/Quidco
A quick rundown of what it has:
Bluetooth with NFC 15 hour battery life Integrated MP3 player Karaoke function Works as a powerbank to charge your phone 3.5mm Aux input Super Megaphone :neutral_face: no idea
Loads more but you can look yourself :smiley:
£10 discount code if you sign up to the Creative newsletter here although that takes it below the free delivery threshold, so £4 delivery :laughing:
Thanks Steve353

SoundBlaster - wow, there's a throwback to struggling to get the drivers working for Theme Hospital circa 1997.

Are these the ones that you shout through the letterbox and they open the front door?
What in the reviews puts you off? They look pretty good to me or is it one specific thing that gets mentioned?

Pretty good solution as you can leave it in the dock BUT does it power down/wake up automatically? Doubtful, sadly.

Remains to be seen. The UE Boom 2 that's connected at the moment doesn't wake up instantaneously (<< didn't even have to check spelling :stuck_out_tongue:) though. You miss about one second at the start of anything she might say before the sound comes through.

Would be interested to know how it compares in terms of sound quality to a Sonos Play 1. Presumably quite a bit worse, but price does reflect that.

I looked at the Play 1 as an option but sadly, it doesn't have an Aux 3.5 line-in, or Bluetooth for that matter.
