Reply to comment by HeyBuddy212 in 8 Years Ago I bought this Bluetooth Rechargeable speaker at CVS for $25. It's still going strong and keeps a charge. by uber765

I think it sounds pretty good compared to other speakers of its size. What are your opinions on its specific sound quality?

Sound is too soft and scratchy

I keep trying to type this message out, but Reddit keeps glitching on me...

I got a newer version, the Philips TAS1505, and I was pretty disappointed with it. Little to no bass at all, and it doesnt get very loud. The JBL Go 3 is only $5 more right now and sounds worlds better. I use the Philips in the shower, and the JBL for when I care more about the sound quality. I will say that I like the way the Philips looks, and the battery life is better. For those without another bluetooth speaker to compare it to, it's probably acceptable.

JBL is dogshit compared to Philips, overpriced and barely gets through the warranty

Having currently owned 5 JBL speakers, I respectfully disagree. Mine have all been fine and sound great. I’ve used my JBL Charge 4 since it came out in 2019 and it still works flawlessly, for example. I’ve had two Philips. One completely died and would no longer turn on, and the sound is very weak and poor on the newest one I just bought.
