"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"
"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"
"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"I even washed them accidentally and still worked perfectly fine afterwards."

"10-15 day battery life"
"16 days battery life on my fenix. ... The other aspect I really appreciate about my fenix is the battery life. 16 days or so. With everything I have to change these days (laptops, mice, keyboards, headphones, watches, phones), I appreciate not having to worry about it too often."
"the battery lasts 2 weeks, that's with 5 days worth of tracking runs and day to day use. Incredible."

"High mode goes real loud but it’s more high and mid prominent so better if you have it paired with the minirig sub. ... Wife got me a whole setup and it can get pretty loud for parties. ... We’ve set up little DJ stations on cookouts and stuff with the setup and it perfect for outdoors bc it’s so rugged."
"they are by far the loudest small size speakers"
"kinda the loudest and best quality mini speaker system you can get"

"About a year and the right bud would last about 15 minutes on a full charge."
"after about 6 months of use, the battery life fell off dramatically. ... I'm lucky if I get 45 minutes out of a full charge. ... This battery issue affected both sets of Elite 65t earbuds."
"my vivoactive 4s died a few months ago now after a few good years services, I wanted to change it. I couldn't because I had the change the whole watch, planned obsolescence."

"they lack resolution and imaging for my taste. ... Very meh sound. ... It sounds muffled and narrow ... there is not much instrument separation or resolution. ... o Red tem mais graves e subgraves do q o D13 inclusive mas falta definição e recorte ... o som dele não entrega nada que impressiona na minha opinião ... o som abafado e gravudo do Red. ... o Zero Red não entrega tanta definição pelo preço ... não é um som ruim mas fica pra trás com tranquilidade."
"Raycon Everyday have an absolutely disgusting V-shaped FR, you can barely hear anything besides bass."

"I have a Bose SoundLink revolve I'm thinking about upgrading to a charge 6 but scare that that might not be as loud"
"only thing I don’t like when it’s at in max volume you can hear in some songs how the volume goes up and down because its to protect the speaker from blowing, it’s not that noticeable But just a bit of a catch there. ... only thing It does is that if a song has too much bass but in max volume you will notice the volume goes up and down. But it’s not as noticeable, still its acceptable to Hear in max volume. ... Yeah I agree, I have noticed that in max volume that in certain songs with too much bass you can hear how the volume goes up and down whenever the bass hits."
"doesn’t have ANC for listening, so not ideal if you're looking for isolation"

"heavier than the bose ... doesn't have handles (optional to order handles from aliexpress online, but doesn't come included in the box) ... very bulky and large compared to the other two ... To carry it you need it on your shoulder and for me it's kinda weird to walk like this."
"imagine lugging that thing into the shower.."
I use a JBL charge in my truck and a JBL earbud when walking.
r/USPS • Bluetooth Speakers in LLV ->Until it's too hot and shuts itself off. In an ffv, the side window is possibly better
r/USPS • Bluetooth Speakers in LLV ->My charge 3 lasted nearly 5 years of outdoors use in the Midwest. Summer, winter, forgotten about overnight, it was a tank. Side story: when it recently broke, I ordered another... Or so I thought. I was a little tipsy and bought the boombox instead. This giant box arrives, and let me tell ya, that thing POUNDS.
r/BuyItForLife • The best bluetooth speaker worth buying now? (sound quality and portability) ->Yeah, realistically that isn't going to happen, replacing 10 speakers with 1-3 is tough as it is, much less when those 10 speakers were designed for the space they are in and those 1-3 are jammed into an enclosure with the amp and battery in a single unit... I mean the closest you will get is a one of the big JBL Party Boxes which honestly isn't very portable at like 75 pounds and 45 inches tall, not to mention they run a grand or so. If you just want decent sound quality -AND- portability the JBL Flip, Charge, or even the Extreme series are pretty decent, but for high end quality you are going to be going well over the $500 mark... KEF, Bowers & Wilkens, Sonos, etc. And Bose... Yeah, I am not a huge fan... I would take the Infinity system in my Hyundai over it in a heartbeat for sound quality.
r/Corvette • I might be asking in the wrong sub, but can anyone recommend a good portable Bluetooth speaker as good as C7 Bose speakers ->Cu banii aia îți cumperi un jbl flip de black Friday acum și ai calitate. Și la 150 de euro găsești jbl charge care deja rupe
r/Aliexpress • Best bluetooth speaker? ->I've been using the same JBL charge for probably 10 years. When/if it dies, I'll go buy another one just like it.
r/BuyItForLife • What's the best quality bluetooth speaker you've ever tried? ->Can't go wrong with a JBL Charge or Xtreme for that price, depending on sales
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Portable speaker which is excellent for podcasts and very good for music? ->I wouldn't recommend any Earfun speaker to someone who isn't very tech savy. Every Earfun speaker sounds mediocre out of the box and they need EQing. I really like my UBOOM X, but I just can't recommend it to my mom. That's why my mom has a JBL Charge. Also, any of the stock (normal or OLUV's) EQs are way too focused on deep bass, which isn't the best with classical music. And it's not very portable I think, it's rather huge.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Super simple to use Bluetooth speaker ->I have had a Soundlink Mini for about the same time. Just sold it though, got a surprisingly good price for such an old device. The truth is I never really liked the sound quality. Bought a couple X600's a couple months ago, and they blow the SL Mini away in sound quality. Also they're louder and have bigger batteries, and cost about the same as I paid for the SL Mini back in the day. The SL Mini just sounded too dark for me, to much bloated bass and muddled voices. Talk radio was annoying as voices don't go through very clearly. I probably expected too much from such a small device, but I was glad to learn that BT speakers have progressed in quality in the meantime. If I was looking for a replacement I'd definitely look at either an X600 for the sound quality, or a JBL Charge for the fantastic battery life.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • 12 Years Old. Still Going Strong. ->JBL Charge is a good pick, or the Flip series if you're more concerned about size, although they are both pretty compact. Soundcore Motion Boom is a good choice as well, however it's a bit more awkwardly shaped if you're trying to fit it in a bag.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • Bluetooth speaker for beach ->Jawbone did start it. They would have been around longer if they didn't do a "Sears" aka instead of sticking with something they are good at they went into different categories. The JBL Charge kinda replaced them but the charge wasn't as good as the Pulse. But I think the Charge 3 was what started JBL to be great. I remember when the Pulses actually sounded great the Pulse 3 still destroys the newer ones and the coolest looking one.
r/Bluetooth_Speakers • What's the greatest mid sized Bluetooth speaker of all time? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
