Cambridge Soundworks OontZ Angle 3 Ultra SUP Special Edition Waterproof Paddleboard Bluetooth Speaker, 14 Watts, Hi-Quality Sound & Bass, 100 Ft Wireless Range Bluetooth Speakers

Basic Oontz speaker is better than this angle 3.

I bought this after watching a lot of reviews and I wasn't wrong. It has served me well. Its loud enough to serve a decent sized room Bass could be slightly better, but for the price I am not complaining

• Exceptional and richer sound quality in its range. • Bass is incredible and lets you enjoy the entire low to mid to high range without damaging your experience. • Surprisingly clear at max volume. • It comes in basic packing for well protection along with a standard micro-USB cable and 3.5mm male-to-male cable. • When handled the feel is premium with solid and rubberized sides. • Controls are good with raised symbols that can be felt when lighting is low. • It dances its way around while on a hard surface at high volumes with high bass ;-) • Simple to pair. Speaker and microphone during phone calls are also of good quality • The battery easily lasts more than 20 hours when played under 50% of its peak volume  By IPX6 rating, it is nice to know that it is water resistant and it can be splashed on while by a pool or a beach or more likely water spill on it. I did not test it after getting addicted to its sound quality. o A battery level indicator would have been a nice addition o Sometimes the Bluetooth audio has continuous interruptions in playback when it resumes music playback after a phone call. Maybe a firmware upgrade can fix it.

REVIEW OF: OONTZ ANGLE 3 ULTRA SUP BLUE COLOR: If you buy ONE speaker for your shower, THIS IS THE ONE!. I listen to mostly rock and pop at max volume and I am a true audiophile. These will NOT disappoint you. I suggest you buy 2 for optimal enjoyment as this allows better stereo separation. PROS: 1) excellent battery life - more than 12 hours at MAX volume 2) superb sound given its tiny footprint. it is SMALL so the bass will not be palpable, but it is quite adequate in a small enclosed space such as a shower. 3) yes it IS waterproof enough to survive the shower. 4) AWESOME control buttons, all the functions separate as they should be. Not one button you have to press some magical tough to remember number of times for each task. 5) beauty in its design - love the blue one. 6) best bluetooth connectivity i have ever seen. it connects fast and STAYS connected. 7) easy pairing and you can control both speakers from the master one 8) superb value. CONS: 1) the bass is a bit lacking, but only if you REALLY like bass:) not even worth losing a half a star over. The sound is so good overall it more than compensates for this inherent shortcoming due to its tiny stature. You simply cannot get earthshaking bass without a large behemoth:) This speaker is a thing of beauty for both eyes and ears. Buy it you will love it. One CAUTION: If you stand this speaker up the long way, it will move around at max volume. Jump off shelves and stuff like that. Lay it down the LONG WAY on its rubber footed side so it stays in one place and will not fall down. SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT: 1) make this in more colors and designs - I'd like to see RED and PINK a design similar to the blue /light blue swirl, but with pink swirl on red and red swirl on pink. 2) add some cool LED lights that pulse and change color with the music beat. Comparison to the SONY SRSXB33: The Sony has a bit more bass feel to it, but bear in mind that the SONY is about 4 times the size and weight of the OONTZ and more than double the price. Unless you care about the gimmicky lights (yes they are cool) in the SONY, the OONTZ is far superior simply because of the song control buttons which are 3 separate buttons on the OONTZ, rather than one button and a song and dance about how many times to press it on the SONY. The OONTZ also pairs more reliably and easily to the bluetooth host than does the SONY. Overall max volume and music quality is almost identical on the 2 except the bass is fuller on the SONY due to its greater heft. Battery life is FAR SUPERIOR on the OONTZ - lasting at least 12 hours at MAX vs. 4 on the SONY.

Update: 6-12-23 These are still going strong! Just used one of them as a phone speaker and it worked great. Clear with no echo. Has not lost sound quality or battery life. I cannot stress enough: these sound waaay better than their price suggests. Get a pair of them and pair them blue tooth, and you will be very pleased. The bass is so good that you cannot place these speakers where loose objects are or they will make them vibrate. These little speakers will also walk off a shelf due to the bass they put out so make sure there is a ledge or something to keep them from falling off a shelf or rail on your patio. Updated 5-4-19: I returned the Anker Soundcore II due to the speaker losing bass and the power button went wonky. Anker did step up and sent me FOR FREE an Anker SoundCore Boost 20W Bluetooth Speaker with BassUp Techno! These sound way better than a single Oontz Angle 3 Ultra, way better. But, I would take a pair of the OontZ speakers and listen in stereo. You can get 2 Oontz Angle 3 Ultars for the price of one Anker. The Anker speaker rocks, but stereo is much better listening experience. Oh, Anker upgraded my speaker and honored the warranty even though 30 day window had passed. CHANGES TO ORIGINAL REVIEW: 1. The OontZ Angle 3 Ultra (oa3u) sounds better in bass and full sound than the Anker Soundcore II (ASII). Not as clear in the highs but better overall sound 2. Higher volumes, the OAS3U beats the ASII. 3. While not suited for a outdoor party filled with drinking friends who are talking loudly, they are more than adequate for a family gathering where people are talking but not drunk. More for patio than yard use. 4. When used with jetAudio EQ, these little speakers sound extremely good and the bass moves up, while not distorting. I listened to the following songs and compared these OA3U speakers with the ASII: Damian Marley - All Night; Depeche Mode - Lie To Me; Supertramp - Oh Darling; Level 42 - Something About You. Each of therse songs NEED to have bass and the OA3U won when playing each of these songs. Still like the ASII, but the OA3U are better. Review is for: OontZ Angle 3 Ultra (OA3U)Dual Portable Bluetooth Speaker I wanted to let those searching for a great speaker for a budget price and good sound, you have found it. I have tried, used and enjoyed the following speakers: -Harmon-Kardan Onyx Studio II (pair) -JBL: Clip; Clip+; Flip; Flip II; Charge -LG PK3 -Anker Soundcore II -Aomais Sport II Portable 4.0 These pair easily, but not intuitively. Read the pages 14-15 of the getting started manual and you are set. They even play a stored sound file that tells you which is the left and right channel. It plays in true stereo. For under a $75 for a pair of good BT speakers, that PAIR in true stereo, pump out good (not great) bass and are loud, this purchase is a no brainer. Out of a 4 Class system defined by me: -Class 1: HK Onyx Studio II -Class 2: JLB Charge II and subsequent models; OontZ Angle 3XL ULTRA; LG PK3 -Class 3: Flip-Flip X, Soundcore II, Oontz Angle Ultra III -Class 4: JBL Clip and similar pocket speakers. FOR ITS CLASS, this is at the top! In fact I am unsure if these speakers should move up a class when paired! I tried the Aomais brand speakers but they were too weak on bass, thoguh they are also true stereo. The Soundcore II actually sounds the best of Class 3, but it does not pair to play stereo. I would have gone with a pair of Anker Soundcore II if they played in true stereo. The SC II handles bass the best, and rival or beat Bose Soundlink II Mini. If you are going with one speaker under $50 and do not care about playing in stereo, the Anker Soundcore II beats the OA3U across the board. How? The bass is better, the rest is quality highs and lows and MOST of the volume range. The OA3U remain paired to each other even after turned off and then turned back on. In fact, you should disconnect BT connection if you use several devices with the OA3U or you will will have to go find the last device you paired them with and disconnect the BT. These pair with only one device at a time. Listening to "Holding Back the Years" - Simply Red. Without at least some decent bass this song would be ruined. Also listened to "How 'Bout Us" - Champaign and "I Wanna get Next to You" - Rose Royce. All three of these songs require good bass to do them justice and these OA3U speakers do them justice. Whoa, Rush "Tom Sawyer" now playing. Decent bass for this song but this type of song needs the volume and bass of the HK Onyx Studio II CRANKED up. However, the little OA3U speakers are holding their own. "Black" - Pearl Jam, sounding good! Damn good and I have the speakers at about 65% ZERO distortion. Finally, these are NOT outdoor party, fill the yard with sound and drown out the guests. These are great indoor speakers (that can be used outdoors thanks to IPX rating) and are more than adequate for a good sized living room. People expect whichever speaker they are buying to be light, have a 24 hour battery and pump out at night club quality bass for less than $100, ain't happening. That said, these are way above their pay grade.

Big difference from the last Bluetooth speaker I ordered. I was hoping but didn't know if it would have the usb-c ports since my phone uses those newer ones also (don't have to swap out charging chords) 🙌 also when I turn it off this OontZ speaker is silent. My old speaker would announce loudly "turning off" no matter what the volume was set on. The price is good since it's nice and clear and quite loud for its size

No soy un audiofilo, asi que tomen con reserva mi comentario, pero el sonido me parece bastante claro y no aprecio ninguna distorsión. Creo que las frecuencias bajas son débiles, pero es entendible. Buena duración de la batería y simplicidad de los controles.
