ZAAP Hydra Xtreme 12W Wireless, Auxiliary, Bluetooth Outdoor Speaker - Black

This is one of the best Bluetooth speakers out there below 5k.Pros:-1.) Good build quality the speaker is portable and weighs around 430grams and its ruggedly built along with added water and dust resistance.2.)Good Bluetooth reception and hassle-free connection and good range of 20feet without walls and can cross one wall without any problem.3.)Amazing bass with respectable mid and high.4.)Battery life is also good and it generally depends on your volume level gave me around 10hrs+ for volume around 50-60%.5.)Volume level is on high side without any distortion even at high volumes.6.)Led indication is good it givesRed - charging, Green - charging completed,Blinking blue - searching for Device,Stable blue - when connected,Green - when using aux port.Also gives voice feedback when battery is below 10%.Cons:- For the price and the performance it gives there are no much cons but these things should be noted.1.)Recharge time is a bit slow taking more than 3-4 hrs for full charge from 10% battery.2.)Call quality of inbuilt mic is not that great.3.)No USB port to play audio from flash drive or memory card and no Radio.4.)No next song/ forward & previous song/rewind buttons so you need to change from whichever source you are playing a bit irritating but adjustable flaw considering the performance it gives.Verdict:- Basically this speakers is for for those who love bass but also have good mid and high for those who like to listen to more vocals. At this price point the quality of product and sound are exceptionally good. Thank you and enjoy the sound from this speaker.

So after using it for a month. I decided to write a review as I wanted to use the product in every possible manner.Pros:1. Build quality is very good very rugged.2. It is waterproof and I checked it personally, I accidentally dropped in a bucket full of water and nothing happened.3. Battery backup is about 8 hrs when we hear 2 points below maximum volume.4. It takes about 5-6 hours of charging.5. Gets easily connected. For connecting second device you need to disconnect the existing device by pressing + & - simultaneously.6. There is a built in microphone so you can call up easily but for that phone should be in 3 meters of range.7. It provides perfect grip when you hold it and will work when your hands are wet.8. Bass is very good in fact it is awesome.Cons:1. The maximum Volume of speaker is less, it wasn't expected.2. Bluetooth range is less, it is about 5 meters it should be 8-10 meters.3. If you listen to a maximum volume then sound will distort a bit.4. I gave one less star because it allows only 1 device connection and also because of less max volume.So overall final conclusion is that It is a MUST BUY..... Why? Because in 3000 you will not get a waterproof and rugged speaker. Also built in quality is very good which takes all credits. And battery backup is also good.-------------GO FOR IT GUYS!!!!!!!!------------------

Writing this review after using the speaker for past 10 months.* Sound is loud and crisp, enough for a 2/3 bhk. Good bass and treble balance. You actually feel the tremors of bass at high volume, if kept on bed/table.* Outstanding battery backup. Minimum 9 hrs backup at higher volume.* Extremely portable and rugged for outdoor use. Carried along on various trips and tracking. My friends were astonished by its performance and admired my choice :)* Good connectivity with Bluetooth as well as 3.5mm jacks.* Multipurpose use of buttons: Play /Pause /ReceiveCalls || VolumeLow /PreviousSong || VolumeHigh /NextSong.* Microphone works absolute fine to take calls through speaker. --> It takes a minimum of 2 - 3.5 hours to full charge. --> Control buttons are very tight; also gives an irritating sound to stop pressing further, after attaining max volume.Verdict :- Amazing speaker to own at this price. I bought it for Rs.3999 and it's totally worth it.

Overall product is good, build quality is nice.Sound is nice,bass is also goodJust a warning: don't play music with sound enhancement like bass boost, Equalizer,etc if you play music at full volume with bass boost or Equalizer there is a 70% possibility that you might broke your speaker. This device doesn't need any enchantments.Water proof quality is good i dropped my speaker under water in a bucket music was playing well, sound gets low due to water but work good.Warning: do not drown you speaker for more than 1 min it might get broke because it has IPX6 rating.Sound is very nice in comparison to other products.Battery life is super i played 9 hours continue than it get discharged.
