  • Great alternative to TB
Color: Whitewater
Great speaker so far. Pros: Loud, good for the beach or the boat Handles water and sand Durable (so far) Decent battery life Cons: Lots of bass (maybe a pro for some.) No discernable difference between "indoor" and "outdoor" settings App is only for LED cast Love the speaker so far. It's loud which is great for the beach and boat. There is a lot of bass which sometimes makes it hard to get just the right volume. The app is only for the LEDs, wish it had an equalizer option and more LED customization. Battery life is affected by volume and LED use, but it usually lasts. I've never time it, but it lasts several trips on the boat 4-6 hours at mid-high volume without needing a recharge. Lasts 7-8 hours at the beach at full volume and still has 2 "bars" of battery. Overall, compared to the bougie option, it's a solid choice and comparable. Have had several people ask what it was cause it sounded better than their expensive one. ... show more

  • Best one Yet
Color: Blaze Orange
Best speaker bought yet, and I have bought several. I think it is actually better than the more expensive brands. Battery last all day, better bang for the buck, super strong.

  • Insane Powerful Sound!
Color: Black Oak
This new speaker ROCKS! its has amazing sound... especially for its compact size. I decided to try this out over Turtlebox because I own another of their units from years back which I got at Costco and it still works. These guys really know what they are doing. its completely waterproof. My son was taking the speaker to the bottom of the pool and letting it float back to the surface. its a rock solid unit. Heavy and sturdy handles on the side. The LED lights are very bright. If you swim at night they create great lighting effects in the water. More fun. The LED button is a little annoying to scroll thru all the options. But i found they have an app in the android store that lets you control the colors and sequences . The app makes it much better. As far as sound quality goes, its Insanely loud. The bass response is very deep. I have only played with the EQ settings a little bit. But its nice that they are right there with a touch of a button. I dont think Turtlebox has that. Plus the unit will connect and sync to my Golf cart speaker. We had it on the boat and it was louder than the motor. it was fun to have it floating in the lake with the speaker floating speaker up. We got back to the dock late and it was dark. So I turned on the flashlight to help me tie up the boat and put the cover on. Its just a fun smart design... ... show more

  • Absolutely perfect for beach volleyball games!
Color: Black Oak
PERFECT!! We play outdoor beach volleyball and we MUST HAVE TUNES! We have never cranked it up to over 100 decibels. Nice to know it has the power. Sometimes Bluetooth will be weird on Apple devices where it won’t pair. Don’t freak, just “FORGET DEVICE” and try pairing again or turn off turn on unit. That’s the ONLY issue. A tiny rare issue. I use my iPad as a digital scoreboard when we play and I plug into the unit to keep it charged. We have never, ever run out of battery power and we play for SEVERAL HOURS and it keeps my iPad charged. I don’t care about the light show it offers but if you like flashing colored lights that’s a bonus. It really is rugged in the sand hit by water and a volleyball this thing is tough! Love the bottle opener! Hilarious opening a Classic Glass bottle of Coke! My highest rating! ... show more

  • Eco speaker
Color: Emerald Bay
I bought this for my husband and the sound quality on it is AMAZING! We tested it by playing music from 50ft across the yard and it was so clear it sounded like it was right beside you! Not very heavy but definitely feels super sturdy. It’s also waterproof which is perfect for going on the lake.

  • Surprising great!
Color: Black Oak
I purchased the Defender after hearing a turtlebox on the beach one day. After a bit of research, I noticed a lot of people said the defender is just as good and maybe better than the turtle box. The fact that it is roughly $150 less did help as well. I must say that the speaker sounds amazing and half volume is plenty loud for most occasions. We used it just yesterday on a sandbar at the edge of the ocean and had no problem hearing the music at half volume, even with other people playing their own music and waves crashing. It did get sandy and splashed a little but it was no problem at all. The LED presets are a nice touch but download the app for a ton more options. I can’t speak much to battery life as we only used it for a few hours but I feel it will be plenty. Another plus is that it can connect to my sound extreme soundbar on my golf cart to enlarge the sound stage for backyard parties. Overall the performance surpassed my expectations, the weight is very manageable, and I feel it’s the best value for money in this speaker segment. ... show more

  • Its got great sound quality
Color: Black Oak
Ive been a long time customer of Ecoxgear products, from the Eco-trek all the way through the Eco-bolder, this small speaker is louder than most of them and by far ine of the best so far, yes it floats, I live near a river and my stereo system in my boatbis having issues but this little guy get the job done even while teathered to my boat while it floats. Its worth it! Much better and more cost affective than turtlebox. ... show more
