The appearance is what you choose the speaker for, it certainly has a cool retro look.
how heavy and solid it feels, the speaker cloth is made of a kind of hard plastic, which is a bit disappointing, it does not feel like fabric, as it looks, I expected something different from this.
Pairing via Bluetooth is easy, just hold down the button on top and it can be found via the settings of your phone.
there are 3 buttons on top; 1 volume knob, 1 knob to adjust the bass and 1 knob to adjust the treble (high).
The buttons have an LED strip all around, which allows you to see which setting you have set the bass or treble to. This light dims when you are no longer near it.
The volume of the speaker itself cannot (unfortunately) be controlled with the telephone, while this can be done with another top brand.
So you control the volume separately on the speaker and separately from your phone.
You can pause via the speaker AND the telephone.
There is no arguing about the sound, it is sublime.
Due to its weight, the speaker is very sturdy, which benefits the sound.
A larger bass speaker at the bottom provides deep bass when requested.
It is a bit larger than I thought, so keep that in mind if you want to place it in a narrow area.
