Great for younger people. Terrible for older people.
I ordered this for my parents (older) so they can play music/YouTube videos from their iPad. I showed them how to use it (very simple to operate) and it will work perfectly for them in that sense. The size and the sound quality is good to.
My biggest problem with this Bluetooth speaker is that it’s pure solid black (including all the buttons). The black buttons are very difficult to see because they blend in with the color of the device. You can’t see them unless you hold this device at a particular angle and under a bright light. What genius at the manufacture thought of this design? Stupid design. A younger person must have thought of it.
The manufacturer could have easily made the buttons a different color (other than black) so that they can be seen easily. I had to put drops of white paint on top of the buttons so they can easily be seen now. I shouldn’t need to have done that. The manufacture should have designed it that way! How hard would that have been. Pathetic.
If you are older, do not buy this. Choose another brand and just know that most of these tech companies these days design things for younger people and don’t give a crap about older people’s needs. Good luck.
