Altec Lansing Baby Boom XL - Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker, Wireless & Portable Speaker for Travel & Outdoor Use, Deep Bass & Loud Sound, 1 Pack, Mint

This is a nice little bluetooth speaker. I have not dunked it yet but carry it on my kayak and use it next to the hot tub because they say its water proof. It has a good quality sound with fairly good bass response for a small unit. It gets as loud as I need it to, which was a pleasant surprise. It has easy to use controls and charges quickly. It connects immediately with no issues and the bluetooth range is huge (at least 50 feet). I recommend this speaker.

I have the red one. Positive: Great sound, easy to use, light, compact, great in shower (although I turn it so the speaker is not being sprayed), long life battery, and unlike other items this one is easy to find when looking for it.. All in all great, Definitely good value for the money. Negative: No instructions, no manual, not a hint. Although most things should be obvious, the light control was a bit of a pain. Push for like 10 seconds on the light switch to avoid epileptic seizures. Also it looks like a toy. I realize this was needed to provide the water resistance, but when I opened it, it did put me off.\ I would give it 4.5 stars as the negatives are annoying but not deal breaker considering the positives.

It’s a good personal loud speaker. The sound is clear and it gets pretty loud. It’s easy to connect to, charges fast and good to take to the outside but not too disruptive/distracting. It’s also good as a shower speaker as it’s waterproof. The button the turn it off is kind of hard to press and you have to hold it for a while. The charging port is now a type c.

I will say, compared to a couple of others I've purchased in the past, this is best one so far as far as sound goes. I haven't tried any of the newer ones out there, but this one was chosen because of the price. I made this purchase after asking my nephew what he was using to get such a broad sound from his phone. We are both musicians and download a lot of music. I wanted to be able to listen to my music openly while showering or just doing things around the house without having to use headphones all the time. This Baby Boom is impressive. I only gave it 4 stars because after using it twice and not using it for long stretches of time, the battery died. I powered off the device both times after using it for maybe 3-4 hours collectively. Needless to say, my phone outlast the speaker. Disappointing, as I was listening to music and it just powered off on it's own...like it literally had 20% battery life when it shut off.

Bought this to replace a JBL Clip that I left behind in a hotel. This is sounds at least as good if not better at a better price point. Very satisfied.

I don’t usually fall in love with tech, but this tiny speaker? Listen… the Altec Lansing Baby Boom XL is the definition of do not underestimate me. It’s compact enough to toss in a bag, but the sound that comes out of it is downright disrespectful for its size — deep bass, clear vocals, and zero distortion. I use it everywhere: in the car, outside, in my kitchen… but where it really shines is during my workshops. I’m talking rooms of 30–50 participants, big open spaces, people chatting — and this little boom box fills the entire room like it’s auditioning for America’s Got Talent. It’s that good. It’s also waterproof, snowproof, and it floats, which I did not think I needed until the day I dropped it straight into a cooler. Still played. Still booming. Still living its best life. Battery lasts hours, charges anywhere with USB, and pairs instantly. I’ve actually bought two… because a friend “borrowed” the first one and refused to return it. (Honestly? I get it.) If you want portability, durability, and BIG sound from a speaker that fits in your hand, this is the one. It’s the bomb — literally my workshop MVP.

I love this small but mighty portable speaker-this is my second one! The first one can fill sound for a 22x22 area well. The sound is crisp and clear…only wish just a tinge more bass could come through but still a fantastic buy for such a low price! Who knows? Maybe I might make it three?
