Easy thing. Difficult to install via Apple, via Google Home this works perfectly. Let it run via Bluetooth and you have top sound. Supports MAQ, 360 and Hi-Fi sound very well.

Great box for someone who wants an assistant and still wants to be able to take a box with them. Sound is fine but don't expect a high-quality reproduction. If it's only about music, there are better boxes for the price, but you don't have an assistant. I find it difficult that there is no app for settings or updates. The battery does not reach 8 hours at somewhat higher volumes, which you can quickly use in an outdoor environment. Then it is ready after about 4 hours and that is quite little for a day trip. This box should really look like an assistant with the possibility to use it as a Bluetooth box on the beach, for example. Maybe the best in both cases, but because it's both possible, good enough on both counts.
