After I Buy Accessorise Portable Bluetooth Wireless Speaker
I have tried a couple of these mini speakers, but this is my first Bluetooth connected one. They all seem to have similar sound quality... way more clarity and volume than a phone or tablet, but nothing like a $100+ Jawbone JAMBOX or similar product. As far as acoustics, this speaker is exactly what I had expected. Pairing is quick and easy, and now that my Nexus 7 has the 4.2.2 update, spotty playback is nonexistent. No problems with my Samsung Galaxy Nexus phone (CyanogenMod)either.
I have used this on numerous solo boarding/biking/hiking days. I just throw it in my backpack or cargo pocket and jam. Needless to say, it has taken a couple of hits, but to my surprise it has survived them all. It is also great for practical jokes. One of my personal favorites is to hide it in the faculty room refrigerator during lunch and play cat meow ringtones.
First, excellent instructional video. Hardly any other speaker offers a video showing how to set up and what it sounds like. Let that guy do more videos on products and people will definitely buy. I bought AYL minispeaker based on price and on the video-review offered by Amazon. Amazon+AYL+Video Review gave accurate info and it is a good product. Thank you.

This fits neatly in the palm of my hand and EVERYBODY who has heard the sound from it is astounded that such a little thing can put out that much sound and not lose much sound quality! It's not a Bose, but it's perfect for me when I need good sound from the music on my phone. I face the speaker away from me and the acoustics of a good sized room (24x18) do the rest. Most of the time I don't even turn it all the way up. It really works best when there is some distance between me and it. Otherwise the sound focuses to directly at me and believe it or not, doesn't sound as well. I use it in the car, setting it facing toward the back on the floor behind me. Does great. I highly recommend this little speaker. You won't be disappointed.
BalasHapusI received this at no cost from the manufacturer in exchange for writing a review. This not only works great, but also would make a very nice gift. Here is why I like it.
BalasHapus1. This is packaged very nicely, and in a way that says this is a quality product, which is definitely true. And when you open it up, this looks great. More important, it sounds great. For a speaker this size the sound is really good--not tinny and with a decent bass.
2. The instructions that come with this are crystal clear and everything you need is included: a mini USB charging cable, an audio cable (in case you do not want to use bluetooth), and a nice draw string carrying case that easily fits everything into it.
3. This was very simple to pair with my iPhone 4S. The on/off switch, which has an audible beep, also easily enables me to pause a song and then start playing it again.
4.. This is very lightweight, so it is perfect for travel, whether a long trip or a short one into your backyard. This is also great for making Skype calls or any calls where you want to put your phone on speaker. It is so much easier for me to hear Skype calls when I use this mini speaker.
5. This also comes in solid black, white or red as well as with blue, gold or zebra stripes instead of the silver. There may be other colors that I don't know about.
Bottom line: High quality, well designed product that does exactly what it says.
Easy to use and this little unit makes my life around the house so much easier. I set up the bluetooth and can leave my iPad or iPhone in one room and play the speaker in another. It doesn't travel more than 200 feet or so but for what I Need it works great.
BalasHapusthis speaker really has a good sound quality due to its size and easy to connect with your device.
BalasHapusIn my case I bought to use with iphone and ipad and it has a better quality sound than this both devices

BalasHapusI use this to stream podcasts from my smartphone while driving in my car. Works flawlessly. Just streams audio via bluetooth, no more, no less. In other words, it does exactly what it's supposed to do. Audio and volume great - don't use it to listen to music, so I can't speak to that. Fits nicely in my cup holder.
BalasHapusSometimes good things come in little packages and this Mini Bluetooth speaker is one of them. It fits comfortably in the palm of my hand and is approximately the size of a tennis ball. Some of the older speakers I have around the house were, at one time, considered to be small, but are now quite clunky in comparison. Like huge. If you're anything like me, I have a tendency to fill up every bit of my desk space with something. This speaker, because it is tiny doesn't have a lot of space on it for "directions."
BalasHapusWhen you go to set up the speaker, especially when pairing it to any Bluetooth device, it's not intuitive. I had to really check out my directions carefully. For example, above the Ayl stylized logo there is a switch with international graphical symbols. The how to is not spelled out on the speaker. When you start to pair, you need to make sure the speaker is in the off position before starting. Then press the switch and hold it for at least five seconds. Keep in mind you should be within three feet of the device you wish to pair it with. Just in case you lose the directions, the Bluetooth device and is BSPK001 and the password is 0000. There are several things to be aware of so direction reading is essential.

This is an amazing, fun little space-saving speaker. I have the black one, but it does come in other colors. It also comes in Zaffre Blue, Gold, Silver, and a slightly wild and funky Zebra. Initially, probably because I am not much for reading directions, was not particularly pleased that this Mini Bluetooth speaker wasn't as easy to set up and pair as I would have liked. If your speaker doesn't pair readily, you might have a dud (it does happen). Paying close attention to the directions will probably solve your problems as it did mine. There is a little troubleshooting section in the user guide as well. The final verdict is that it's an affordable speaker that really does what it says it does.
